LocalSend. A cross platform app similar to AirDrop.
Main thing I care about is having the latest version of Gnome. Otherwise I use flatpaks for all my apps.

My shameful recap includes the week I tried to switch to MacOS with the M4 Mac Mini. But I ended up hating MacOS.
The issue with Proton is that it’s designed to work within Steam, sandboxed, and with Valve’s runtimes. There’s also a lot of hacks Steam uses to make games work on a per game basis based on the game’s steamid.
It doesn’t do that in Heroic. Which is why umu has been developed, its purpose is to run Proton outside of Steam but still be properly sandboxed and use Valve’s runtimes. It also has a database so that the same hacks used to make a game work on Steam are also applied to the GOG or Epic Games version.
Heroic doesn't use Proton by default. Currently, it uses WineGE 8.26, which is rather old. But they plan on switching to Proton-GE once their umu integration is stable. It's been working well for me in Skyrim.
You can change the default size in Terminal settings. Go to the default profile, I believe it's called Pop. Then change the number of columns and rows to what you prefer.
You can't change the placement though. The only thing you can do is globally change the window placement rules in Gnome Tweaks to avoid overlapping.
Same. I briefly had an M4 Mac Mini and one of the things I instantly missed about Linux was Wayland.
I always want new windows to open on the middle of the screen I am currently working on, but on Windows and MacOS they just go wherever they want.
On AMD, it’s not uncommon for games to perform better than on Windows.
For Nvidia, games almost always perform worse than on Windows.
flatpak create-usb [OPTION…] MOUNT-PATH [REF…] - Copy apps or runtimes onto removable media
I don't think it has to be removable media despite the description. I'm also not exactly sure how to install the packages once they're copied over.
For more details, see flatpak create-usb --help and flatpak man pages.
One of my favorite things about Gnome is that almost anything can be customized via CLI with dconf or gsettings. Which is great until you encounter one of the few things you can't customize, like displays.
Yup, you have to do the Bedrock event to get the cape.
I actually use Fedora Silverblue, not Ubuntu. But I still maintain the snap because it’s really easy to do and I like the app.
