Why would it matter the reason of dropping a file of X size? The point is that not all applications are "decent" and some will undoubtedly use /tmp because "it might be the most logical thing" for any developer that's not really up to date.
I don't see how reviewing the tmpfs helps in this scenario if at all... we are talking about end-users your common joe/dane running your day to day applications, whatever they may be. I don't and will never expect developers to adhere to anything and just put out whatever.
I... don't think I have ever seen it do that automatically unless I missed some steps in the installation guide...? most of the time I just created the partitions I needed. I did a quick CTRL + F on tmpfs or tmp but not seeing anything...
Anyhow, I don't see on my desktop which still has Arch Linux installed which I want to move to KDE Neon but extremely lazy when you have an immense backup to do...
In my experience, the developers of such applications discover their mistake pretty quickly after their apps start seeing wide use, when their users complain about /tmp filling up and causing failures. The devs then fix their code. That’s why we don’t see it often in practice.
I humbly disagree. We don't live in that utopia.
I don't see them echoing your concerns.
I guess for an scenario to be real everyone has to know exactly what's happening? They will know what caused it and they will all know how to properly report it even though I don't even expect a lot of people to know their system especially your average joe/dane nor do I expect them to even troubleshoot the issue if something were to happen. It doesn't really invalidate the scenario at all.
A fabricated scenario is itself pretty redundant. :)
Installed KDE Neon today but the whole tray area popup is not working?
Updated everything using pkcon update. After installing everything works fine it just that there's nothing when you try to open things like wife selector or power management features.
There’s plenty in there going back to 6 months+ sadly I don’t think I can bring as much details as everyone’s elses posted issues. It’s a waiting game from here on :(
KDE Neon using tmpfs for /tmp seems like an horrible idea?
I get the idea behind it for sure but why use our available ram for this? I thought whatever init functionality would just wipe clean /tmp at boot....
How do I fix the flickering on KDE with transparent themes? (AMDGPU laptop)
