  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.

  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Absolutly me

    But i think the starting OS depends on the person.

    I never would give Arch to my grandmother or something but most of my siblings would be better off with arch than mint. But even then there could be poeple that would be happier with another distro that is not a rolling release

    I've been playing with Bazzite

    [–] _cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

    Bazzite is so good, especially on the Steam Deck. I did run with Arch for awhile, but ended up switching back to Bazzite when I realized that all I ended up doing was recreating Bazzite in Arch. KDE 6 with all the gaming essentials pre-configured is just so nice.

    [–] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

    As someone who currently uses Windows 10 w/ NVIDIA hardware and a destain for W11, I'm definitely liking Bazzite.

    Apparently though DirectX games don't perform as well as well compared to Windows though. At least heard from an ROG Ally Bazzite vs windows comparison I saw on YouTube

    Thank God they didn't try to install open BSD

    I'm an ex-sysadmin so I guess I get to be the middle head, but blundering my way through the current distro scene after not having touched a desktop Linux install in, oh... twenty years or so, I feel more like the right. I suppose on the one had I had the good sense not to jump right into Arch or Nix, but even more familiar territory like Nobara has its pitfalls. Just today I had to clean up a botched release upgrade because the primary maintainer had left conflicting packages in the repository for an extended period. Not laying blame per se, that's what you get when you sign on to a one-man effort, but it was a real pain in the butt to diagnose and correct.

    Is nobara really more familiar territory than arch? I'd never heard of it before. Arch may not always hold your hand, but it's extremely well documented.
