My gosh people… this… this might be the year of Linux on the desktop!
(not even being sarcastic here, the reach streamers have is huge. I bet a lot of their audience is thinking now “Wow… if he did it, maybe I could!”)

Well I (a developer) collaborated with an artist (3D modeler) recently and… I did not ask them to install anything.
Instead what I did is a develop a Web drag&drop page. They’d visit it, drag&drop their model and… see if it worked (e.g. visually or running animations) as they expected. That was it.
IMHO finding the boundaries that are important, and thus how to collaborate, is more important than a unique reproducible environment when roles are quite different.
TL;DR: IMHO no, you don’t, instead find how to actually collaborate.
set up by non-programmers (such as artists) […] requires users to learn i3wm and possibly use the command line
Very cool, thanks for the in depth explanation.

I’m curious. Say you are getting a new computer, put Debian on, want to run e.g. DeepSeek via ollama via a container (e.g. Docker or podman) and also play, how easy or difficult is it?
I know that for NVIDIA you install the (closed official) drivers, setup the container insuring you get GPU passthrough, and thanks to CUDA from the driver, you’re pretty much good to go. Is it the same for AMD? Do you “just” need to install another package or is there more tinkering involved?
Debian… but also to clarify it’s not “old” at all. I’m using Debian on my servers, yes, but also on my desktop that use daily, to work and to play video games on, including VR. So… don’t think because it’s “old” and “stable” it means it’s outdated.

I’d be curious, did you profile if it’s for all pages or only some? I’d expect e.g. Facebook or Instagram to be more demanding than Lemmy or ProtonMail but to be honest I have no idea.

sofficeandpandocwhich have (as far as I can tell) similar features but have been existing for years now and are not related to Microsoft.Edit: not related to Microsoft AND Google, seems the transcription aspect (which IMHO is still weird in that context but OK) is done via Google servers, cf https://lemmy.ml/post/23629310/15586865
FWIW each new install is faster, especially if you write down the “weird” steps.
