Really good, but I did have to remove the screen protector as I was getting line jitter with it on.
Palm rejection is better than I expected but not as good as an iPad.
I’ve been using a Wacom Bamboo Ink Plus. Pressure sensitivity and stuff works out of the box, no additional drivers needed or anything.
Krita is excellent.
Yeah this was the issue for a lot of the 2-in-1s I looked at. Lenovo, Dell, even Microsoft have some cool options, but they’re insanely expensive by the time you spec them to be comparable to the V3.
The 32gb ram model was $1000, on sale from the usual $1200
I was just pointing out the state of things on an up-to-date distro like Fedora as many times a newer kernel fixes stuff like this and no one bothers to update old reviews. I was already aware of the link you provided (it’s literally pinned to the top of the blog post I linked in my main post), but it’s irrelevant when I’m talking about the out-of-the-box experience. I only tried the input-remapper fix because someone pointed it out and I wanted to confirm that worked for me.
I didn’t make this post to complain about issues or ask for solutions, I’m here looking for interesting ideas and questions about this super cool hardware. This thing’s fucking awesome and I wanted to share.
I am super tempted to switch to KDE on this thing. KDE has always looked cool, but I’m too happy with Gnome on my main desktop to justify fully switching. This is seeming like a perfect opportunity for some variety…
You must be new to Linux as a whole.
lmao i am not
Just tried it, and yep, that solved that problem.
GrapheneOS on a Pixel 8 Pro. I’ve been super happy with it since I switched from iOS.

At 11:55 you can see the Gnome top bar, and at 14:50 he mentions it.
DankPods uses Linux on his gaming system, which I just found out recently. Seems like Linux is starting to gain traction in the content creator space now, which is neat.
Linus mentioned that Emily (her new name) has been internally pushing for a Linux gaming revisit on a recent Wan Show, so hopefully something comes of that.
Also an upcoming tech upgrade video will be for someone who’s switching to Linux.
Just finished upgrading, all went smooth and Gnome 46 kicks ass so far. VRR is finally here!
Just submitted a complaint to the DGCCRF. Hopefully this goes somewhere.
I remember there being a bug with AMD GPUs and monitors with freesync a few kernel versions ago. It’s exactly like you said, random brief freezes.
Try updating to a newer kernel or disable freesync in your monitor settings (if appplicable).
I like to host as many services as possible and I’m fine with it being a second job at times since this is my main hobby, but I actually agree with you on your examples. The three things I won’t self-host are:
Emails - I am not willing to put in the effort on this. Plus, my ISP blocks those ports so I’d already be into using a VPS even if I wanted to host this. I’d rather just pay someone else, like Proton.
Password manager - I actually did self-host Bitwarden for a long time, but after thinking about it for a while, I decided to take the pay someone else approach here too. I’m pretty sure I’m doing everything correctly, but I’m not a security expert. I’d rather be 100% sure my passwords are in safe hands rather than be 95% sure that I’m doing everything right on this one.
Lemmy - I’ve heard about (luckily never seen) CSAM attacks on Lemmy/Kbin and will not risk that kind of content being downloaded because I’m federated with an instance dealing with those attacks. I’m happy to throw a couple bucks at lemmy.world’s Patreon and let them handle that.
In video, common frame rates are 30, 29.97, 24, and 23.976. (Almost) anything else will be a multiple of those. Your monitor might not actually run at 30hz * 4, it runs at 29.97hz * 4 which is why you see an option like 119.88. Sometimes that’s displayed as 120 to the user for simplicity, but in this case they’re showing the actual value (or it might support both).
Someone can correct me if I’m mistaken, but as far as I can tell VM gaming has become pointless in recent years.
Proton/Wine will let you run almost everything on Linux with the exception of some games with rootkit anti cheats, and you’re likely to be banned if you run the latter in a VM anyway.
So far I’ve switched 4 people to Linux (with approval and interest obviously, plus unlimited tech support lol). 3 are happier with it than Windows and the other liked Linux but had to switch back to Windows due to some audio production software they needed.
It’s also secretly been an experiment to see what distro is the most user friendly. I have one on Linux Mint, one on Debian, and the other on Fedora Silverblue. All three have been great, but I think the winner is Silverblue so far. I don’t love how quick Silverblue versions become EoL, but it’s also the distro with the easiest updater. It’s an Apple level of simplicity; click update, restart at some point, done. No scary package lists or changelogs, just a nice blue button to press.
Also Flatpak + Flathub continues to be a huge contributor in making Linux friendly to normal people, in my opinion.
Yeah, I think that’s definitely one of the roadblocks Lemmy is facing at the moment. Even though I deleted my Reddit account after the API nonsense, I’m absolutely still appending every DDG or Startpage search with “reddit.” Especially with the flood of AI-generated garbage filling search results, it’s the easiest way to get quick answers from (probably) real people.
However, that also relates to Reddit’s other advantage, in that it actually has a decade and a half of content to be indexed in the first place. The magic of Reddit is that every question has been asked in every way at least 5 times over, Lemmy just doesn’t have that history yet.
