How in the world do I set previews while browsing a folder full of photos in KDE plasma (I'm using Nobara because gaming), I can only see the generic photo icon. I love it so far and I'm having very few issues, but trying to sort and delete photos from a folder without a thumbnail/preview is impossible! I have tried googling the issue but apparently it's not that common? I'm sure these is a dumb setting somewhere but I still haven't found it.

Has anyone ever used the enterprise version of dbeaver? Does it do as good a job interfacing with nosql databases it does relational databases?

Finally bit the bullet and got a Thinkpad and I'm leaning towards putting Fedora on it. I've never used Linux before but I've done some research and I like the idea of something that updates more often than Debian but isn't as DIY as Arch. Do y'all think Fedora would make a good starting point? I hear it's stable enough and offers enough non-free applications through the RPM file management system.

Also, are there any drawbacks in using the immutable Silverblue version? I'm considering it just so I don't do anything dumb by accident.

Once you’re comfortable in the rpm world, rhel is literally free for individuals.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
