Lol, this is borderline evil advice

But yeah, it works!

Sure, no rush there!

As someone who ran Debian Stable for a while, this is not a distro for “99.99%”.

First, Debian, while very stable in its core, commonly has same random issues within DE’s and even programs that may likely just sit there until the next release comes along.

Second, a release cycle of 2 years is actually a giant and incredibly noticeable lag. You may love your system when it just releases, but over time, you will realize your system is old, like, very damn old. It will look old, it will act old, and the only thing you can do is install flatpaks for your preferred programs so that they’d be up to date.

This isn’t just programs. It is your desktop environment. It is Wine (gamers, you’re gonna cry a lot unless you work it around with flatpaks like Bottles, which will feel like insane workaround you wouldn’t have to have with a better fitting distro).

It is the damn kernel, so you may not even be able to install Debian on newest hardware without unsupported and potentially unstable backporting tricks.

Don’t get me wrong, Debian is absolutely great in what it does, and that is providing a rock solid environment where nothing changes. But recommending it for everyone? Nope.

Should be within your DE’s settings, might just be the default there.

Or, if you want all the same features without immutability, just go with OpenSUSE Tumbleweed!

(Aeon is an OpenSUSE project, too)

You can combine any desktop environments, really. Just choose which one you want when you’re on a login screen

But it’s a good one! Mind sharing original file?

Btw

As someone who used both Arch and Fedora: no need to fomo, Fedora is great and delivers everything you may ever need from Arch without the headache.

The only strong side of Arch here is AUR, but then again, I’ve never found anything I would need that wouldn’t be available in Fedora.

So, you’re golden.

Isn’t GUIX based on Linux-libre?

This must complicate installing nonfree software, including nonfree drivers if your computer needs any.

Honestly, having tried both atomic and regular Fedora, I ended up with regular, as it allows you to do all the same things without limiting you to them.

Install flatpak? Sure. Use Distrobox? Of course. But if you have to use native package, you can simply install it without jumping through the hoops with rpm-ostree (which doesn’t even always work properly).

Fedora itself is great, though - a healthy release cycle, high stability, and mature base.

You should certainly try OpenSUSE, it’s as good as it says on the tin

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed/Slowroll

Tumbleweed is the only bleeding-edge rolling release distribution that just works and never fails and is super easy to install and manage without any expertise. And it is massively underrated and forgotten for no good reason.

All Tumbleweed packages go through extensive and to this day unrivaled automatic system testing that ensures no package is ever gonna bork itself or your system.

If you’re still worried about stability, there is Slowroll - currently testing, but in my experience very stable distribution. It makes rolling release updates…a bit slower, so that they’re only pushed after Tumbleweed users absolutely ensure everything is great and stable (not that it’s ever otherwise). It does the same job as Manjaro, but this time around it actually works without a hitch.

Both deliver great experience and will suit novice users.

I’d rather see feature parity so that Fediverse and Threadiverse in particular won’t EEE itself.

Longer translation without commonly accepted terms:

I’d rather see Lemmy/PieFed/Kbin/Mbin have the same features overall, so that there wouldn’t be one of them trying to extend on others and then make it standard so that others die out because they lack something that is now important

Sure, but I can’t single-handedly create an entire knowledge base on doing everything with X, so it’s a real and big limitation.

I’d say the main bad part of systemd is how it’s used and now expected everywhere.

If you search for some Linux guides or install something complicated or whatnot, they always expect you to have systemd. Otherwise, you’re on your own figuring how things work on your system.

This shouldn’t really happen. Otherwise, yes, it’s great, it integrates neatly, and is least pain to use.

Thanks!

Lol

Interesting, thanks!

Guess it’s the same kinda thing as amd64 on Intel lol

Why does default config check Mozilla specifically?

{
"name": "generic-browser",
"user_agent_regex": "Mozilla",
"action": "CHALLENGE"
}

Guess that’s why I’ve seen Anubis check screen quite a few times.
