I hear good things about mint. I might try it myself after i upgrade my desktop. but for now i just use xubuntu on my laptop.

suibari-bot.bsky.social•38 days ago

What!? That’s awesome.

Mint is a reasonable progression from Ubuntu, but EndeavourOS is going great right now. 👍🏻

I've been considering atomic Fedora for a while, interesting design principles and new tools to work around the immutable OS packages.

dont that kind of defeat the point of gentoo-ing

freyja-lynx.dev•38 days ago

maybe but portage is nice to work with imo

hotsocket.fyi•38 days ago

hotsocket.fyi•38 days ago

I used Debian for 4 years. After switching I actually kind of enjoy using linux again lol

thatlinuxnerd.gay•38 days ago

(btw I went to Fedora and honestly kind of like it so far, because it’s *different*).

boyfailure.dev•38 days ago

yeah I've heard good things about it and have been tempted to perhaps give it a shot in a vm or something... it would probably take a lot to pry me away from maining debian though just bc im so entrenched -- however I am never averse to trying new stuff bc that could always change :3

boyfailure.dev•38 days ago

what if everyone switched to linuxfx /j

sp2guzzi.bsky.social•38 days ago

No doubt there were be a lot of folks kicking and screaming as they were dragged to the new mandate!

boyfailure.dev•38 days ago

protest and you will be forced to just use actual windows 11

thatlinuxnerd.gay•38 days ago

A fate worse than death

I'm currently entirely mid about Ubuntu. It works fine.
