I'm running the Fedora KDE spin and it has Discover. I very seldom use it running dnf or flatpak updates from Konsole. There is a updates available icon on the toolbar that I don't look at very often, just assuming there
will be updates. dnf is a symlink to dnf5.
Discover always seemed to take longer to come up and get the job done.

Interesting.
I've never had much luck with OpenSuse or Fedora for that matter. I
found Yast to be confusing, at least for me.
With Fedora it seemed like I had to research getting things to work for
me more than I should have to.

Updates in the Linux kernel are not supposed to be generally noticable
by users. There's an application layer above it that users will
more-easily notice.
I think UI customizations are (for the most part) more important to new
Linux users who are experimenting. For someone like me, I just want the
UI to look and work pretty much the way it did the last release or three releases earlier. (Small changes don't take too long to get used to. I

Aesthetics don't mean that much to me, but a clunky UI is a pretty rapid
deal killer. I consider Mac's OS slightly "clunky" But any OS (not Cinnamon) I consider slightly "clunky" these days. I'm pretty much set in my ways. It must have something to do with being old.

Some people are interested in aesthetics, some people aren't.
Some like chocolate ice cream, some like vanilla.
Some people like to work in a park -- and some in
a post-industrial cyber dystopia.
Personally, I've been using xfce4 for years, and I have it
set up the way I like. I _also_ have Cairo dock running, but
I hardly use it -- just interested in how stable it is, because
that's what I've got set up for Mrs. vallor.
For me, Linux desktop porn is fun to look at, but I tend to keep
things functional first.

One click to get into the bar, another to open up the screen controls
and a third to choose which setting you want. How is that better than a
keyboard combination as in Linux or Windows?
I couldn't say, I haven't used 'Doze for 20 years or Linux for 15 except rarely in a VM. I suppose it comes down to the question: do you prefer
the GUI and trackpad or the CLI and keyboard? I think it's rather harsh
to describe macOS as clunky just because you prefer the keyboard.
If I wanted to be rude, I could describe the CLI as old fashioned.
There's no accounting for taste, eh?

There are many examples where the modern CLI (and using shell scripts to
run commands) are much more efficient than the GUI. Some people love
their mouse a lot more than I do.
I'm sure there have been changes in the background (where developers live) but for us braindead "normal" Linux users, not a lot has changed in how we use Linux in the last ten years.

I only recently found appimaged. Trying to manually edit .desktop files

The Arduino IDE v2 is an appimage and after I installed the daemon it

Niri is a new way to use a tilling Window Manager. Some terminals like alacritty and kitty bring new ways to interact with the terminal. None

I installed it using the repository method. I don't like that it doesn't

Now I see that they declare themselves to be "very Woke," so another

I keep going back to Edge, but within days realize that Brave is
paradise and default back to it. Brave displays the web as it should be,
where content is key. Every other browser displays the web as the
companies want it to be, where content is bait and you have to navigate
through nets of their annoying garbage.
I guess I'm used to Firefox. I've tried Brave a couple times and have never been that impressed by it. I do use it on the old iPhone because Apple
limits the iOS version of Firefox. I don't think they allow add-ons.
