I just sold my Framework 13 after daily driving it for a year. The HiDPI display bugs and workarounds just got too annoying.
I went back to my old Dell XPS 13 9310 and I’m loving it.

Any resources you’d recommend?
I suspect that it goes down and stays down whenever there is an app update, but I haven’t confirmed it yet.
Does the plain wireguard app stay up during updates?
if the cameras don’t load, open Tailscale and make sure it’s connected
I’ve been using Tailscale for a few months now and this is my only complaint. On Android and macOS, the Tailscale client gets randomly killed. So it’s an extra thing you have to manage.
It’s almost annoying enough to make me want to host my services on the actual internet… almost… but not yet.
Interesting. I’m saving this for later.
Yay! Good job. Keep going!
Neat. I’ve been getting more curious about WebDAV recently. Also, great website! Thanks for posting!
Neat. I’ll have to check this out as well. Thanks!
One thing I’m doing differently in Arch this time is I’m trying out installing as many things as possible as flatpaks. I’ve successfully ignored them until now. Surprisingly, a lot of my apps are already packaged as flatpaks.
The other thing I’m borrowing is distrobox
+podman
. I didn’t know about that before. This seems useful for dev environments.
flatpaks + distrobox seem to be at least 50% of VanillaOS. So I’m borrowing those and then I get to keep the simple, mutable OS with Arch.
That being said, I’ve never had a problem with pacman
breaking my system, so I don’t see major value in doing this… other than… it’s helping me procrastinate! I should be doing real work right now. 😄

Ooooh, ok. Missed that.
Hi, it isn’t possible to install Tailscale inside the VSO container since it needs to interface with the host, for this case, I would suggest using a custom image following this template and rebase to it using ABRoot -> https://github.com/Vanilla-OS/custom-image.
Aw, dang. ok.
I’m like 12 hours in. It’s not going too well right now… the biggest con is that there is basically no documentation for Orchrid…
My use case: I have Obsidian notes synced with Syncthing to a server only accessible via Tailscale. I was able to get Syncthing working by installing Syncthing GTK from Flathub (a workaround, I couldn’t figure out how to install Syncthing the normal way). But I’m still out of luck because I can’t reach the server.
The only way to install Tailscale is via a custom image it seems. :(
The other thing I haven’t figured out is if it’s possible to use wl-copy
to copy text from a terminal. The terminal app basically opens into a container. It seems like wl-copy
can’t break out of the container and affect the host clipboard.
The container/isolation stuff seems kewl in theory, but so far I’m finding it pretty annoying.
I’m experimenting with this because I was wondering if VanillaOS would be a good fit for my parents, which actually, it might be. They have very basic needs. All their apps are on Flathub. But for me… I think I may just go back to Arch.
You mean the post that talks about the successful install that doesn’t run? 😅
this post covers the successful install of tailscale on VanillaOS, however I cannot get it to run.
Also, that’s from 2 years ago on VanillaOS Kinetic, not Orchrid. 😢
Oh, wait. Derp. Sorry. I need to RTFM.
$ vso sys
Execute system commands, such as upgrading the system

The command got renamed.
Maybe you could go to:
Settings > Developer Settings > Personal Access Tokens > Tokens (Classic)
And then create a new token there.
Then you should be able to clone a private repo as long as you have git
installed.
When you git clone
your private repo, git
will ask for your username, enter that. Then it’s gonna ask for your password. Don’t enter your GitHub password. Enter your token.
Clone should work.
how concerned you quickly become with all types of water
LOL, yes! 99% of my problems these last 5 years have been related to water. It’s really made me want to learn more about plumbing.
Ah, right. Thank you for your service. 🫡
It’s been pretty painless to switch to https://www.waterfox.net/ on desktop. There’s also a Waterfox app for Android.
Holy moly, I did not know this existed! Thanks! Just turned this on!
