        Open source locally run LLM that runs on GPU or dedicated PCIe open hardware that doesn’t touch the cloud…

      To be fair - people don’t know what they want until they get it. In 2005 people would’ve asked for faster flip phones, not smartphones.

      I don’t have much faith in current gen AI assistants actually being useful though, but the fact that no one has asked for it doesn’t necessarily mean much.

    Basically competent support for hardware for laptops newer than 2014. Proper thunderbolt, displaylink, trackpad, fingerprint reader, facial rec support.

        I wish Wayland had support for multi-finger gestures. I know my System76 laptop’s trackpad supports them on Windows, but Windows is trash. I use them all the time on my Mac, but I just use a mouse on Linux.

          wdym, gnome and kde have 1:1 3/4 finger gestures and smooth scrolling OOTB.
          And it works GREAT!! much better then on win10!
          ONLY under Wayland though…
          if you’re using x11, you won’t get the gestures.

                I have a System76 Kudu from 2018. I won’t buy anything from them again, honestly. It was overpriced for what it was, and the screen is awful. And it still has features that only work on Windows 10. Not at all what I expected from a company that claims to be Linux-first.

                  also maybe you need a legacy driver for your touchpad like xf86 synaptics

    I just hope GNOME’s developers would stop being so insufferable. Lots of Wayland extensions and FreeDesktop portals unimplemented on GNOME because of the developers’ stubbornness. These also adversely affect to other DEs and WMs and Wayland’s evolution itself because other DEs would have less reasons to support a standard if one of the largest DEs themselves don’t support it.

    I really love GNOME because it’s polished, but if KDE would be just as polished I will immediately switch. I know KDE works really hard to make the DE and the apps in general as polished and modern as possible, but I can’t still help but feel better at GNOME.

    One example is the color scheming protocol by FreeDesktop. You can now make your apps look greenish or purplish or whatever color you want regardless of the toolkit they’re made with. Right? Well no, because the insufferable GNOME developers keep blocking the proposal because they want the colors to be hardcoded by the DE. They were offered a compromise where a DE can just offer a limited, curated color picker to the user when they go to the theming settings and allow any arbitrary color hidden behind commands, but the insufferable GNOME developers said no. And the proposal, last time I heard, is still stalled because of GNOME.

      I think the reason Gnome is good is the same thing that makes them insufferable. They believe there is a right way to do things, sometimes those are things you like, sometimes they aren’t.

    Some kind of easy notification system and panel/dock/taskbar notification emblems. The support for stuff like that is incredibly spotty right now and is one of the final things preventing me from switching off windows.

    EDIT: Have found a decent solution to this via Dash to Panel. I have been running Zorin OS for over the last month now on my main PCs!

    Please inbuilt on screen keyboard. For the love of god windows on screen keyboard is miles ahead of any Linux alternative and on Wayland the scene is even worse.

    A consistent system settings app that actually handles all configs without requireing manual editing of config files.

      Which DE? With KDE I don’t think I’ve ever had to edit a config file. I do recall that being an issue with Gnome; it’s been years since I’ve used it though.

        XFCE is really bad with this. KDE is much better, but still when setting up something a bit more complicated, you are quickly back to reading man pages. And man pages really aren’t great.

    Remote desktop working like it does in windows.

    • easy to setup and use
    • can remote into a system that has been recently rebooted. Without needing to make the user auto login and set the keychain password to be blank.
    • resolution scales to remote client interface

    I love linux and it is really all I use but RDP support is severly worse than windows.
