I think the new Wayland fork will fix that

Hey hold on, I also hate Ubuntu because of how awful gnome is. Can’t blame everything on snap!

Agreed, it not fair and I appreciate the breakdown. I just get frustrated with the (more common on Lemmy) attitude that it’s up to users to deal with linux’ many many shortcomings for daily use that are in your category 1, especially.

In a world where every tech company sells itself on simplicity, one man has the tenacity to stand up form what’s right to him: telling other people they just should try harder!

Oh facts on that one, still dont really get it tbh but most of my use it’s containered anyway

Lol source pls

I feel like people have an interesting view of techy/advanced/etc

My view is that you need to pick something in line with your goals: some people may be techy but just need something to host files and a web browser and don’t care about new packages or whatever, or modern security or anything. I wouldn’t recommend mint or fedora for a gaming PC regardless of techiness, you know?

1. Find a distro, run into problems
2. Ask for help
3. Get asked why the fuck you chose that distro when it’s obviously for super brains
4. Repeat

To be fair the nobara website is very “pet project” both in the design and also in the frequent warnings about using it for anything real. Is a good distro tho, having said that.

Ohhhhhhhh

Not really

Agreed, this is the distro that worked best for my needs (modern security, without wanting to die from maintenance of that security)

To be fair arch has amazing docs, and even a rube like me can follow it decently well. I found endeavor to be the easiest distro to use. But agreed the attitude isn’t great.

Calling people stupid and lazy in nicer words is still calling people stupid and lazy.

You can still switch, if I’m thinking of what you are, in the legacy “sounds” menu. Just turn off all their universal app shit and 11 is ok :)

Wow I’ve never seen anyone else say a bad thing about their 3a or 4a. 5 and 6 absolutely but I thought those were the golden days of pixel

Oh and here I thought it was what gnome devs thought I would like ;p

I won’t bother responding to your hate fueled rage post except to say those are all highly recommended distros, except Manjaro which I’ve already stated was hot at the time. Void for example is the no-contest top rated distro right now. When the “best” Linux has to offer won’t get past grub from their install wizard, that’s not an incompetence issue.

It’s my daily on 3 of 6 machines, 2 are installs from the last year

It sounds like you’ve read about but not used windows for a while tbh. The going online thing is true, but its not exactly confusing. Not sure what you mean by onedrive, I uninstalled it years ago.
