    Layered Sandbox Filesystem for Linux?

    Is there any maintained applications which provide a layered sandbox filesystem for Linux? Similar to what Sandboxie does in Windows. Here is an example of what I am talking about, not updated in 5 years. In simple English, I am looking for something that would allow me to install packages...

    Advantages of running newer software versions using AppImages?

    Has anyone seen or used apprepo? They have a lot of AppImages that are difficult to find otherwise, or at least not on other listings (e.g. Zap). From looking at the Github it seems a lot of the applications are regularly updated (maybe automated from packages). I installed Chromium 98 today...

    Alsa/Pulseaudio - Some General Questions / Is it me (soundcard) or is it pulse?

    I have seen the pinned thread regarding what to do in case of no sound, and restarting pulseaudio works fine for me. As does the much longer process of rebooting that I was previously undertaking. However I have a few related questions to alsa/pulse. I don't really want to ask on SE as there...
