So a few months back I asked about you guys os in c/asklemmy, so this time I wanna ask about your desktops you use on this same account.
(I use kde but plan to move to cinnamon I find kde buggy and gnome tracker3 randomly broke for no reason + themeing so yh idk if these happened to anybody)
Idk,it would not run anymore.
Easy to force a tracker reset, or enable disable. Or even reinstall. Seems easier than findinf a new DE no?
Also tracker ahould not be using up so much diskIO or CPU like people mention, if it is it is tripping up on a files internal data, and status/logs will show which file(s)
Oh, I couldn’t figure out how to reset or reinstall it so I just went back to kde.(also themeing which I didn’t mention)
Thats fair. If you ever go back then at cli typing tracker3 will give a list of commands.
Tracker3 status will give you what it is doing or if it is idle, and notes on files that are troublesome.
tracker3 reset with cetain flags will purge and rebuild index.
You can also set filetypes and folders to index, but that is probably eaaier in dconf-editor settings, under org/freedesktop/tracker/mine/files
I remember I checked it and clicked said waiting for tracker3 or smth.
