Festool is not on this list because Festool owners NEVER GET ANYONE PREGNANT.

You can also use GPS location without any google services running, it just takes a bit longer to find your position when you first connect. OsmAnd or Organic maps from f-droid, which are actually superior apps to google maps in a lot of ways, particularly OsmAnd.

Where did you buy it from?

Makes sense! I have it from the Debian repo but haven’t set up my studio space and got deep into it yet. What were the issues you were having from the older repo version?

The only thing nuclear has going for it at the moment is jobs for the boys. Have a look at Hinkley C in the UK. It’s certainly not for cheap or clean energy.

As a humble linux user of the last year or two my experience has been that anything that is not in the Debian repo is a confusing nuisance. Nobody told me how to get appimages to integrate with my desktop. I had to rummage the internet and learn how. Compare this to a single click in Gnome software or simple command in the terminal for apps in the repo. I also installed flatpak, so I could get programs that weren’t available in the repo but nobody told me I would have to install and rummage Flatseal to enable them to work properly, that it would make my backups and restores take 900% longer and would rinse my data when they need updating. It’s been annoying enough that I’ve ended up learning how to install from source as well. Maybe it’s cool that I’ve learned how to do all this new stuff but to be honest I just feel like I’ve had to do loads of extra head-scratching and unnecessary work. I did it willingly because I’ve been committed to not being held back from using open source software but I couldn’t expect my friends and family to do any of this, so if I do get them onto Linux I can’t recommend these programs to them.

Current tier list:

• Debian repo
• .deb downloaded from a website!
• Enjoy using application, go for a bike ride.
• Make sure I’m free for a couple of hours, install from source.
• Appimage
• Do without given application
• Flatpak

I’d rather have a keyboard mounted on the steering wheel and operate the car with bash aliases.

Thanks for the links. I really want flatpak to work for me because I like the sandboxing but the storage thing is a bit of a killer for me at the moment and I could not for the life of me get Digikam, Shotwell or Rawtherapee to hand image files over to GIMP with the flatpak versions, whereas the repo versions were fine out of the box. Also, I feel like flatpak programs are much slower to open but that might just be me.

I do hope flatpak can solve these things. I have the deb installs all working harmoniously at the moment, so I don’t want to touch them but will have another look at flatpak versions at some point in the future.
