Corruption is when you get a million for something. Lobbying is when you do it for a promise to be on the board of directors in the future.

Rpm ostree is for system packages. Luckily I rarely need any. Db for everything else

I’m on opensuse aeon and it is exactly like fedora silverblue, except that it’s rolling. I use flatpaks and install the rest via distrobox. I guess it is the same on KDE linux.

Linux is growing together.

Edit: aeon is european which is why I use it and not fedora. If fedora was european, I probably would use fedora.

I’d reboot

It has to be the same everywhere.

I am on opensuse aeon and I don’t care about the distro anymore. Same on atomic fedora.

Fedora can be used by noobs and pros, which setting should it be?

Most users don’t even know that you can click on it because it doesn’t look like a button. Touch screen doesn’t have it.

But it should only be replaced with something more useful.

you can bypass the version validation check

Extensions are there to be used, just use them. Imagine using kde or firefox without adjusting it. There is a base version that fits for everyone and people can write extenions.

Yes, many extensions should be in the base version but who am I to tell the GNOME devs what to include? The extension manager should be included by default. It’s the distro’s maintainers fault if it’s not included at this point. They should be easier to discover, but again, I am not really helping to improve the situation either.

That won’t happen on mint anytime soon. It may be somewhat achievable on ostree/OCI distros like fedora silverblue but even there it’s difficult.

I guess you simply want a backup and sync feature on the end user level. You could look into syncthing and sync whatever you want to have synced.

To me, signal is for friends. Not huge, unknown groups.

Like facebook but they fucked it up. In the early days it was nice to chat with friends.

I’d like to make a counter point to this. I’m an enthusiast and I want an immutable server. Currently, I’ve got perfectly running systems but switching from fedora to coreos wouldn’t change much in my workflow but updates happen in the background and it’s slightly more “unbreakable”. Almost everything is containerized anyway

Installing arch is not difficult. Difficult is to keep track on innovation in the linux space. You are responsible to install and maintain everything. You have to decide if you want something like selinux, at what time it is mature enough to use it, install and use it. You have to evaluate if selinux is better than it’s “competitors”. You have to decide which firewall you use today and as soon as a new system pops up, you have to read up on it. You decide at what time flatpak is mature enough to use it. All this and much more is done and decided by distro maintainers. They keep up with new stuff and guide you. By using arch, you decide that you want to take care of it and that is ok, but no “normal” pc user who uses her PC once a week shall be expected to read upon all the computer maintenance stuff that is just of secondary importance to her.

Sounds like you may want to install them as flatpak and or distrobox to stop messing with the system like on atomic distros

Just make a live usb of the distro you want to use and check it out. If mint has no live usb usr amother distro, most have. Just use a big one. Since mint is just ubuntu it should be good

That sounds like an explanation for ostree.

That is a rabbit hole. There are as many tools as sand on the beach.

One of the tools you are looking for is probably starship.

But you can make it as easy as customiying PS1 with e.g. https://bash-prompt-generator.org/

He is exaggerating a lot

Are you rowing back on your statement against redhat? Am I understanding this right?

That sounds bad. Are there any examples?

I mean it would be easier to just say that fedora is american and suse is european. And thus, suse should be preferred.

Fedora is a great distro, what decision did IBM take/influence that makes it worse?

Opensuse is awesome but fedoras atomic ostree distros are amazing. Opensuse does not have such an amazing distribution channel afaik. There is no bazzite built with suse. And no other ublue project.

Then post that into a linux community. Please don’t post non linux related stuff.
