Okay why is your distro the best?

Jump

  • Since I was tired of distro hopping I just use MX Linux.

    • What have been your costliest mistakes in using Linux?

    Jump

  • I tried too many distros.

    • What would make you change distro?

    Jump

  • I'm attracted by Alpine Linux, but it lacks an official way to use glibc for the programs that unfortunately use some glibc extension...

    • Any window manager suggestion

    Jump

  • I never encountered bugs, but I don't use multiple monitors.

    • Any window manager suggestion

    Jump

  • I3/Sway seems to be popular, but I was disapointed when I tried them. I prefer Bspwm because windows are always spawned with a good height/width ratio. Computers are useful because of the automation capability, so it make no sense to use a WM without any automation.

    • In regard to Hyprland and Fascism

  • Use Vivarium instead, it works and it is very featured !

    • Why doesn't the Linux subreddit leave Reddit already?

    Jump

  • Reddit is unified, Lemmy has a small layer of complexity on top and "sh.itjust.works" is a weird name, maybe the Lemmy system drives to such complicated names. Its not a big deal but I add that to the other causes.

    • Is KDE actually good or it is overrated? Or I was just unlucky because of prebuilt distros?

    Jump

  • Look at the reddit called "unixporn" and search for Xfce. You ll see what's possible with Xfce. For me the KDE crashes are a dealbreaker. My Xfce setup is so simplified, that nothing can be ugly. I use Bspwm for the windows and stripped down Xfce panel (dont touch third party status bars, such as polybar, its waste of time if you already have Xfce). No menu such as Whisker menu, but Rofi instead. I got Xfce stability without the old looking.

    • Why do you use the distro you use?

    Jump

  • After tried Alpine, NixOS, Archlinux...finally Im on MX linux because this is a no brain distro and I'm tired to search how to make things to work.

    • Best (preferably offline) HTML viewer? Minimal resources?

    Jump

  • You can also use a light browser such as Qutebrowser.

    • Permanently Deleted

    Jump

    • GoboLinux lives again

    Jump

  • The website looks cool.

    • If you have to pick only one Desktop Environment and use it till your computer breaks, what would you choose?

    Jump

  • There is nothing better than Xfce, if you dont like the desktop, at least Xfce allows you to customize. KDE seems interesting, but the last time i tried it, 10 years ago more or less, it was a bit buggy.

    • Ubuntu explores replacing gnu utils with rust based uutils

    Jump

  • I prefer a glibc replacement.

    • Help me like desktop linux

    Jump

  • Have you tried Mac OS ? It is probably more polished than distros and less enshittified than Windows.

    • Ubuntu Will Replace GNU Core Utilities With Rust

    Jump

  • IMHO distros share the same apps. The defaults can differ, the implementations too but the user can install apps that are on other distros.

    • Ubuntu Will Replace GNU Core Utilities With Rust

    • Which browser do you use and why?

    Jump

    • Which browser do you use and why?

    Jump

  • It is that software. https://www.passwordstore.org/ I still backup in an external dd but there are ways to store them online, like a git repository as instance.

    • Which browser do you use and why?

    Jump

  • I use Librewolf, I manage passwords with pass and rofi. Hoppefuly AIs will write a new FOSS web browser. I read here and here that the web standards are too big to be implemented by humans.

    • Linux @lemmy.ml

    Is it safe to use a ghost Arch derivative ?
