IMHO it’s the best PDF editor out there, idk why Adobe is considered the standard PDF software when it’s so terrible compared to PDF XChange. XChange editor has every possible tool I ever needed, you can move around objects, change text, move and rotate and crop pages etc. It’s just so good. You can’t even edit text in adobe acrobat properly because it will break the text layout, in XChange you can if you’re careful with fonts, spacing, indents etc.

It’s miles ahead of adobe acrobat and works in Linux as well, I know it’s proprietary and pursists will hate me but it’s my go to tool when I need to do anything serious with PDF in both windows and linux.

Others have already explained about PDF not being easy to edit and lack of FOSS tools.

The only advice I can give is that PDF XChange editor works well under Wine if you have it.

Not to soud rude, but how is your “best DE” thread different from thousands of other “best DE” threads where everyone already gave their opinion? There’s plenty of “opinions” on “best DE” online.

Flatpak:

Sucks

User:

Comes to linux community to complain

Maybe try submitting an issue to flatpak devs, contribute to it, or stop using it if it doesn’t work for you?

I never used flatpak and have no issues with drag and drop.

Could you help me with GPU passthrough?

I technically have 2 GPUs in my laptop, one integrated into intel CPU and one discrete nvidia (so called “optimus”). Is it possible to pass nvidia while keeping intel for linux DE?

I tried to read some tutorials but tbh they all leave more questions than give answers.

Gnome can’t ship a config to disable secondary selection because there is no secondary selection.

Nobody is removing it?…

Never even thought of that, but this is genious.

Maybe using ctrl for that is not the best decision, but I understand this was just a showcase. I wish this actually existed and was used in real desktop environments.

Not a solution you want, but consider custom compose key sequences for repetitive text.

Why not codeberg?

Links to project website? Code repo? Screenshots?

Link to some file hosting with some archive is a bit suspicious, and I looked up the game title and couldn’t find any mentions on the internet.

What’s the point of clipping stuff? I keep only personal stuff in my vault (for example, things that happened to me, whatever I know about people that are close to me, places I like, events I want to remember). Because if it’s something you found on the internet… it means when you need it again, you can go and find it on the internet again?

Unless you have a constant paranoia that things you liked will disappear from the internet one day, in this case I would download and archive stuff, which I don’t consider “clipping” anyway and don’t store in my vault. I treat Obsidian vault as my diary, it’s for personal things, not to shove thousands of publicly available things into it.

Sorry I don’t mean to be rude, I’m genuinely curious about what are you trying to achieve and what problems you are trying to solve and why does it need to involve obsidian?

1. “I could install linux, but what am I gonna do on Linux?” (Note: Some people just think OS is an amusement park)

2. “I could install linux but then I have to type commands into a terminal?”

Use ISO date format (YYYY-MM-DD) and they will be properly ordered.

Because they wanted drama and clickbaity headline.

What exactly is “sideloading”?

Couldn’t make it work, unfortunately.

Can I just save this as an html file (with all js inside, in a script element) and use this single html file to work with pdfs (after opening it in a browser)?

Costs a bit too much for me but looks interesting, is there a limited demo or discount planned soon? Maybe I can get it somewhere other than steam for less money?

No kidding I wish I was paid for this instead of what I actually do at work.
