I think as soon as you add mods to your application that can bring their own code with them you have a potential security issue. The most secure approach that I have seen is wasm mods/plugins run in a sandbox.

I hope you have success. Ventoy is a cool tool, but those binaries suck!

Thanks for your explanation.

What does the license change actually mean? What are the differences?

Thanks!

I removed all comments for simplicity.

What would I need to do to switch?

As far as I know, by definition, at least restic is not incremental. It is a mix of full backup and incremental backup.

Thanks for your hint towards borgbackup.

After reading the Quick Start of Borg Backup they look very similar. But as far as I can tell, borg can be encrypted and compressed while restic is always. You can mounting your backups in restic to. It also seems that restic supports more repository locations such as several cloud storages and via a special http server.

I also noticed that borg is mainly written in python while restic is written in go. That said I assume that restic is a bit faster based on the language (I have not tested that).

For some apps that are not system relevant such as restic I have found a solution in form of distrobox. But that does not work for programs like podman.

What kind of bugs where that?

Thats awesome!

I hate that they had “never will” in there. Seems like a broken promise.

As far as I skimmed the text they used bevy for their prototype not for the release or at least not as a whole.

Yeah. The idea of random stuff nesting into my pc where I will never find it again is also a big pain. That said using distroboy would make it much cleaner I guess.

Here it states that the hoster used is hetzner https://lemm.ee/post/45660045. That being said Hetzner is a german company, so I would expect it to be in the eu.

How can such thing happen? Was an account hacked that had the permissions?

It seems that you are not aware in what format you installed your apps.

Before you install an app, be aware what format it is, that you are installing. Is it a debian package installed via the apt cli or via some store gui? Is it a snap package? Is it an appimage? Is it a flatpak? All of these are different and can have different issues (advantages/disadvantages). Often the same app is available in multiple formats.

This is a great video explaining what formats are out there: https://youtu.be/1lLZ-59xH3Y

A have never used mint and only used debian as a Workstation. If there is a permissions issue with an application, my first thought is how you installed you application?

When you say, you cant easily get tonthe content of a drive, what Desktop Environment do you us3 and what file explorer?

I just found this. This is somewhat the fluent style for iced. Since cosmic uses iced that style is available as well.

When it comes to additional widgets, there are additional widgets in the iced_aw crate.
