Additional reason along with what others have said: my mom has been massively consuming books on Prologue. It’s easier to keep her on a single app than to switch her to ABS or Plappa.

I’ve been using Plappa while waiting for Prologue. Pretty solid app so far.
It’s been the Prologue developer’s next biggest priority on their roadmap. Apparently it’s coupled with the v4 Swift rewrite. I just saw it in the subreddit posted about 3 weeks ago.
ABS TestFlight is constantly full is one reason lol.
I’m looking forward to when Prologue v4 comes out and finally supports ABS. After that, I can finally move myself and my family to ABS and I’ll be one step closer to removing Plex.
I’ve recently been working on this kind of migration as well (but to Fedora instead), so I can speak from my own experiences:
This is my own personal (and recent) experiences and I’m pretty new to using a Linux DE for a main OS too, so anything I say could be incorrect and I welcome suggestions/corrections.
Thanks for the info. I wonder if it’s just the older Intel laptops that need the catchup then.
The only caution I would provide on Framework is their relative lack of BIOS updates: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/04/frameworks-software-and-firmware-have-been-a-mess-but-its-working-on-them/
They don’t have a BIOS updater for Linux (yet) and they have a history of overpromising stable updates. I get they’re hamstrung by upstream providers, but it’s a bad look on them to basically deliver a promised Thunderbolt update 1.5 years after announcing it. The CEO did say at least that they’ve hired on a new development team to get things moving, so hopefully they’ll be able to catch up.
Everything else I’ve heard about Framework is stellar.
It’s almost as if nuanced discussion is discouraged on platforms like this.
Got a source? I’m genuinely curious about that, since I know cold fusion has been long considered the holy grail of energy generation. I just want to hope that it isn’t mere science fiction now :(
China built 37 of them in the last 10 years according to the article. It doesn’t take forever, it just takes foresight and planning, which most of the Western world lacks beyond the next quarter profits lol.
The baseline capacity nuclear provides can get evolving countries like China out of the fossil fuel phase, which is critically important. I don’t know what your problem is with nuclear, it’s been a relatively safe and stable form of energy generation that’s far better than any fossil fuel.
Edit: and I just read the top comment in the thread that they’re building a fuckton of coal plants too. Damn it.
There is a lot of investment in energy storage solutions. Everyone knows how critically important energy storage is for our climate change present and future, and whoever develops the best and most scalable solution first will make billions of dollars.
Nuclear fission doesn’t get that much investment afaik due to overblown radiation fears, while safe cold fusion is the real end goal of energy generation and deserves more investment than it gets now.
Nuclear is a good middle step to full renewable, it’s not the end goal. There’s not enough storage capacity right now for energy usage at night, which is where nuclear can fill the gap until efficient energy storage can be achieved.
The problem is this automatic litter box was bought from Amazon, which was being resold from Aliexpress. People have some level of trust in Amazon. Misplaced trust I would say, as it becomes littered with sketchy 3rd party sellers who have no responsibility to their customers.
