How to properly use bubblwrap?
  • Thank you for this. But if I may ask can you tell me what some of these options do? I can understand what some of these do just by looking, like giving directory access.

    Will this work on my system where I use a combo of Wayland + Pipewire?

  • How to properly use bubblwrap?

    I want to sandbox things like Steam, Discord and even firefox and I see bubblwrap getting recommended a lot as the preferred sandboxing tool but I'm hardpressed on how to actually use it. I don't know what to enable and what not to.

    PS. Please don't recommend Flatpak, I'm aware Flatpak uses bwrap but I want to avoid Flatpak unless absolute necessary. I don't have anything against Flatpak, just personal preference :D.

    Reflector choosing the worst possible mirrors
  • Here's whats in /etc/xdg/reflector/reflector.conf

    
    # Reflector configuration file for the systemd service.
    #
    # Empty lines and lines beginning with "#" are ignored.  All other lines should
    # contain valid reflector command-line arguments. The lines are parsed with
    # Python's shlex modules so standard shell syntax should work. All arguments are
    # collected into a single argument list.
    #
    # See "reflector --help" for details.
    
    # Recommended Options
    
    # Set the output path where the mirrorlist will be saved (--save).
    --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
    
    # Select the transfer protocol (--protocol).
    --protocol https
    
    # Select the country (--country).
    # Consult the list of available countries with "reflector --list-countries" and
    # select the countries nearest to you or the ones that you trust. For example:
    --country Bangladesh,India
    
    # Use only the  most recently synchronized mirrors (--latest).
    --latest 5
    
    # Sort the mirrors by synchronization time (--sort).
    --sort age
    
  • Reflector choosing the worst possible mirrors

    I used to pick out mirrors manually and had servers very close to me, but I recently started using reflector to automate the process, but the mirrors it chooses is absolute dogshit and gives me really slow speeds.

    What am I doing wrong?

  • There is a silver lining, we participated in the blackout but our community of a few thousand members were small as it is and we wanted to make the blackout indefinite but people were joining alternative subreddits and keeping it privatised indefinitely won't do anything since other way bigger subs are opening up.

    We opened up and now I'm thinking to announce a move to lemmy whilst keeping the subreddit open.
