  • they are building nvk. it seems, in typical fashion for them, they are letting the community do it. we are already using the open kernel driver and it works well, and the community is also working on reimplementing it properly.

    seems like things will indeed fall into place in a not too distant time.

    i’m also not having issues beyond the stutter just yet. in any case, looking forward to get my radeon back from the repair shop.

    you can start by replacing the apps you already use. don’t need to overwhelm yourself and do it all at once.

    replacing chrome for firefox is a good place to start. or using aurora and fdroid instead of google play. or heliboard instead of google board. start small.

    it will depend on what you are using and how. some things are hard to replace, some has multiple better alternatives.

    told me to never let the computer update

    probably beause sometimes, they sneak in stuff we may not want with updates. totally understand where hes coming from.

    graphene and lineage

    every few months, every few days, or every other day. depends on device.

    updating every few months or so is good enough for most people. alternative, open source software wont really come with garbage anyway, so no big deal.
