    Once you figure out how traefik is configured, this is super logical and easy. Also, you can use it with podman and qublet on fedora, so you can manage it all with systemd.

    Tldr; Traefik is looking at all containers and scans for labels (attributes on containers). If certain labels are set, Traefik adjust itself. So the trick is how to set those labels, which both docker compose and qublet make easy, but qublet doesn’t need a compatibility package and comes natively with podman.

    Pulseaudio was introduced in 2004. How come it took almost 20y for it to be replaced if it was that bad?

    Implementation, being what it is, improved the situation compared to alsa and other things before it. Again, while not perfect it made things better for everyone.

    It’s funny that this is a thing attributed to poettering as bad since things before were way worse… why not throw Sticks and stones at those people?

    I really don’t get it.

    And all of these things are optional. The fact that distro people and companies select them is because they solve real world problems.

    Is it really breaking it? As far as I’m aware, it’s more like gnu. It has components and you can select what you use (here meaning distros and packagers).

    People mistake this for a monolith because it’s all named systemd-thing. Integration, like you said, was and is needed. But what if all those separate utilities and services are actually disconnected and speak some protocol different to pipe? Does it make it less unixy?

    And poettering is an absolute good guy here. Pulseaudio wasn’t perfect, but did it improve things compared to what was there before? Sure it did. Even now, pulesaudio protocol is used within pipewire and it works just fine.

    Perfect is the enemy of good. And while all these tools might not be perfect, they are the best in the Linux world.

    1. Dual boot should be ok. If and when you decide to fully switch, I’d say it’s better to do a reinstall. Messing with partitions always comes with disclaimers. A bit advanced topic if you are interested: when you resize partition usually data needs to be moved, depending what you do with it, so it will wear your ssd; also you should be aware that you must install windows first, Linux second because windows doesn’t really play well with others and be sure NOT to format EFI partition when installing Linux.

    You have alternatives to dual boot: VMs. Run Linux on bare metal, then boot up a VM if you need something only windows can provide. Gnome has a new VM tool incoming.

    1. No idea for audio, but Photoshop has alternative, gimp. Wether you like it or not, it’s another story (people I know really really hate that one). For digital art there is a tool called Krita that runs on kde. People really enjoy using it.

    2. NTFS has one thing that Linux doesn’t really like - it is case insensitive. Linux normally works with case sensitive filesystems. There was recently a rant by the Linux overlord about case insensitive filesystems, so you might want to stay clear of it. It’s ok to use it on a thumb drive though.

    Edit: minor typing fixes
