Hey everyone! Here are the topics I'll be working on in August, and the choices you can make to pick the ones you prefer :)


As a given, we'll get the usual weekly Linux News videos, as well as multiple reviews for a lot of hardware: the StarLabs Starlight, the Slimbook Executive 16, and the KDE Slimbook!

We'll probably also have the Linux Mint 21 review, as the beta has been released, and I'd be surprised if the distro wasn't out next month.

I'll also take a look at various search engines as I try to replace Duck Duck Go, that's been letting me down a bit these past months.

I'll also talk about a few things for which Linux is just the better option compared to Windows.

Finally, I'll take a look at the Steam Deck again, after 5 months of using it, to see where it has improved, if the hardware and battery still holds up, the things where it still falls short...

And now, on to what you can vote on!

- Gaming on Linux - The comprehensive guide: a complete tour of what you need, what you can, and what you can't do while trying to game on Linux. The goal is to give an overview to potential switchers to what they can expect, and what they need to do to get started


- Trying out Chrome OS Flex: as it's supposedly installable on any device, I want to check out what Google has done on this system, and how it compares to a "regular" Linux distro


- Windows VS Linux: the benchmark. The goal is to take one laptop, and do a series of renders, performance tests, battery life tests, gaming benchmarks, and more, between Windows, and a Linux distro (probably Ubuntu as that's the most used), to see which one comes up ahead. The "Things Linux does better than Windows" could also be based off some of these conclusions.


- Things I hate on Linux: because not everything is always perfect, there are things that really annoy me on every distro, and I want to point them out

So, vote for the topics you'd prefer to see, or even all of them if you don't know what to choose, and I'll work on the 2 with the most votes!

Best,

Nick

I'm really interested in Slimbook Executive 16, I'd probably buy it if it was 17.3" (I prefer/need a larger screen, but I also want 12700H and a dedicated GPU, so the Executive 16 is the closest EU Linux laptop to what I'm aiming for)

Hey Nick! Really cool to hear about your invitation to Akademy! I think your vision on DEs and desktop UX is very practical, and I hope you can help KDE become more discoverable, because seeing how poverful it is, I really feel like it has the potential to be the king of desktops. (gods, I really have to shake off my tiling window manager addiction and give KDE a real try... someday)

Yeah, that was the initial starting point of the idea: KDE can do so much, but it leaves users to find all these options, and turn them on and off until they're satisfied. It's not guided, and users aren't really told what stuff does, or doesn't do...
