By the way, I installed xorg by doing dnf install xorg-x11-* Is that the right way or did I mess up something?

Usually all you need for x11 is installed by default.

Holy sh(%&/(

I installed a minimal setup

Nothing but a CLI

and dnf

I don't like bloat

Hello team

No idea. Literally installed 30 minutes ago. It probably does

Learning dnf as I go

Welcome!

That's neat!

What do you guys think of this?

That's neat!

Maybe this will be the first time I use cryptocurrency, but I've been avoiding it like the plague for now. It feels like the .com bubble from the late '90s.

I hate to ask this question, but… what is the best way to get Skype on Fedora?

Starting a new job this week and I have to use it. :-(

I hate to ask this question, but… what is the best way to get Skype on Fedora?

I assume there's an Rpm for it?

Skype beta. It works fine.

I assume there's an Rpm for it?

Oh, yeah, I'm sure there is, but I was hoping for a more stable / Fedora-style packaged one

I know I used Skype before with Fedy, and that was the last time I tried using Skype, years ago

The stable version has issues but the few times I used beta from Skype itself, it worked just fine.

Does it work with a repository, so DNF can update itself?

No, I downloaded it from their website @jflory

I think when you install it it adds a repository.

Ohh, hmmm. If possible, I'd like to get a packaged one so I could automate it across my installs.

dnf is very very slow

But work

Ohh, hmmm. If possible, I'd like to get a packaged one so I could automate it across my installs.

Yes, it's a package. It's just it's been ages I don't use.

I think when you install it it adds a repository.

Oh, okay. Do you happen to know if it follows Fedora packaging standards?

dnf is very very slow

That I have noticed. But so is apt

I was hoping to know if there is a "preferred" way to install it, similar to how @xvitaly does the Telegram app in RPMFusion with new libraries / dependencies

Oh, okay. Do you happen to know if it follows Fedora packaging standards?

Ah, no, sorry, I don't know. I installed it, used it, and that was it.

As far as I can tell, no, there not many options about Skype.

Ah, no, sorry, I don't know. I installed it, used it, and that was it.

Okay, thanks. If nobody else responds, then I will assume that's my only option. I'll also try to poke around a bit and see what I can find.

I don't like Skype and I use it once in a blue moon. So I'm not very experienced with it. I only know if it works or not, but nothing else.

This month there's a blue moon, so maybe I have to use Skype again ?

hi guys

are all apps safe in the store?

What store?

fedrora store

the gnome software app

Ah, okay.

That's a nice interface for the Fedora repositories.

And yeah, of course, they're safe.

They are all carefully checked, tested and signed.

We are in a beatiful world, RN

Ohh, hmmm. If possible, I'd like to get a packaged one so I could automate it across my installs.

What about the flatpak one?

What about the flatpak one?

same question

What about the flatpak one?

Oh, I didn't know there's a flatpak

Do you have the link @legacychimera247 ?

Wait a sec

ERROR: S client not available

Starting a new job this week and I have to use it. :-(

Skype web

Do you have the link @legacychimera247 ?

well is in flathub with no link, so you may just insert this in the web browser to download the flatpak file :)

https://flathub.org/repo/appstream/com.skype.Client.flatpakref

flatpak applications are containerized, aren't they?

they should be safe

Yes, at least on wayland

It's offensive, don't say it here again please

Pardon?

I don't like Skype and I use it once in a blue moon. So I'm not very experienced with it. I only know if it works or not, but nothing else.

I found out Negativo used to have a Skype repo, but he closed his down and points to the official one now. So I went ahead and installed the official RPM.

What about the flatpak one?

I didn't know there was one either.

Skype web

Okay, I may use this, because the desktop app is driving me crazy. It doesn't work nicely with a window manager. It opens all dialogue windows in an inactive window and always stays on top of all other windows.

But you're using the old one. The new one is just one window app. It's not that bad but use a lot of Memory

The one that pass from alpha to beta to stable

Is the RedHat RHCSA still an important certification

Is the RedHat RHCSA still an important certification

yes, is a pre-req for RHCE and RHCA

But you're using the old one. The new one is just one window app. It's not that bad but use a lot of Memory

I think I'm using that one, but the issue for me is that it doesn't work correctly in a window manager. It's doing its own thing and doesn't respect the tiled windows.

I just got set up on Skype and WhatsApp in one day and it's more of a pain than I expected

Mmmmm, maybe it's because of Wayland

I'm using both in Cinnamon and goes good

Slow, and consuming a lot of memory, but no problem with windows management or anything related

Have you tried in a X11 session?

But are you using the stable or the beta version?

Mmmmm, maybe it's because of Wayland

I'm using xorg still because of i3wm.

Oddly, I restarted Skype and now it tiles as I would expect

It might have been because of the sign-in dialogue window starting it up in a weird way

+1

I'm using xorg still because of i3wm.

If you want use wayland you can see sway

But for now wayland is completely broken

I'm still getting really slow download speeds on Fedora

Any idea what to do?
