[Resolved] Why does the font on Lemmy.world look like an eyesore? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

I have a similar problem, but on Lemmy.zip (Lemmy.world looks fine). However, I am running Fedora Kinoite (immutable), where Firefox is not installed as Flatpak.

Experience with KDE on Fedora? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[–] szelbi@lemmy.zip 3 points 10 months ago

I've been using Fedora Kinoite for a few months now. Before that, I also hopped between different distros quite a bit, including Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora Workstation, openSUSE. To be honest, I really appreciate the immutable nature of Kinoite and maybe that is why I am really happy with the experience. Even "normal" Fedora Workstation caused a lot of problems during my usage and with Kinoite, nothing like that so far. So I can really recommend it.
There's only one really small problem I've noticed, which is a problem with the rendering of some fonts on web pages (e.g. lemmy.zip). These fonts are not rendered correctly, or are replaced with some default fonts, and they just look weird. There was nothing like this in openSUSE KDE, so I assume the problem is with Kinoite itself, as I have this problem on two machines. However, it is so rare (I only noticed it on two websites) that it can be ignored.

Docking station for Linux (Lenovo ThinkPad T480s & Steam Deck) (lemmy.zip)

Hello everyone,
I have a Lenovo ThinkPad T480s laptop running Fedora 39 Kinoite. I would like to use it in a multi-display setup, so I am looking for a docking station. The laptop has a Thunderbolt 3 port. I have attached the details of my device at the end of the post.
People on Reddit are writing that "all Thunderbolt docking stations should work fine" and that's obviously not the case... I have this Dell Thunderbolt Dock (WD19TB) at home from work and the displays work when I plug it into the laptop but, for example, my mouse (connected via USB-A) doesn't work. When I connect it to the DELL laptop provided by the company, there are no problems at all.

Docking station requirements: Ethernet, 3x USB-A, 1x DisplayPort, 1x HDMI.
I have two 1080p displays: 75Hz and 165Hz. Obviously I'm not going to be playing any high-frame-rate games on this laptop, but even on a desktop it's sometimes nice to see a slightly higher refresh rate. So if it's possible, I'd like it to be able to display things above 60Hz...
I also have a Steam Deck OLED and would like to be able to use this dock with it.

I don't want to spend too much money on it. Do you have any experience in this area and can you help me choose?

I am from Poland if it helps in any way (maybe some brands are not available here).
