Lol, the cool thing is you don’t have to use flatpak. If there’s only a flatpak you could package it yourself. Flatpak has way more benefits than just being boiled down to GUI first…

I’m happy to call names if what I see literally falls under the definition of elitist.

Good, the cool thing is that distros for newbies or power users exist. They just want utilities making these actions more accessible. Being elitist serves no one in the long run.

Despite free speech supposedly legally allowing protests and demonstrations there is still a real risk of being imprisoned.

My point is even “free speech” is not total free speech in the United States for example. There are still compromises in free speech so we may preserve order. Allowing free speech to that extent lets these movements flourish.

No, fuck off with your take. That is free speech taken to a literal extreme. Allowing free speech to this extent encourages fascist and Nazi movements to flourish. Nazis should feel uncomfortable or unable to express these views.

I’m not sure how never having learned about 86 as I’ve worked makes me dumb. Besides that, I thought Lemmy wasn’t gonna take off? You can delete your account any time you want. You don’t make it easy on yourself by acting like a baby.

As someone who’s worked a few fast food jobs, no, I’d have no fucking clue what is meant by that. Piss and cry in your edit all you want.

I use Alpine Linux. It’s exceptionally stable, great for pretty much any device and is best for small VPS with limited space/ram. Nice package manager too, but it is limited in packages.

It works great for me since I only use docker containers, but some things outside docker may require something like Debian instead.

I use Arkane Linux, which is based on Arch but is immutable. Every update is a new install. You can easily configure custom images to deploy for your specific wants or needs. It’s nice for keeping up to date with Arch while keeping how my machine is configured declared in an image. You can always roll back if something was wrong with the image you deployed too.

If you’re running the most recent kernel, I’d recommend moving to linux-lts. I have slightly similar specs, KDE Wayland, 6900 xt and 5800, and I had issues with games straight up crashing out my PC on the latest kernel.

If they get their hands on an LTSC ISO they can hold out on Windows 10 a little longer.

I just started toying with Arkane Linux. It’s fairly easy enough to make your own image and they provide some simple templates you can use if you don’t want Gnome. To me, the greatest thing about Arch is the AUR and unfortunately it doesn’t support AUR packages out of the box. This might not be a problem since you could mostly get along with flatpaks or distrobox. It might be a chore for someone new to Arch to have to compile something straight from the AUR that your device needs to function, like what I’ve had to do.

Kagi is great. Excellent search results for the most part, better than either DDG or Google in my experience.
