Ymmv though. Everyone seems to love Tumbleweed except me, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.
These are just the distros I have experience using. I have also distro jumped a lot, so I’ve tried a bunch more than these, but not enough to have a very good opinion about them
A bit late to the party here. These are my two cents based on my own experiences
Mint:
I’m currently running Mint on my work laptop. It’s rock solid, never had any problems. Apt is good, Flatpak and Brew had everything else I needed. I love Cinnamon and I like that minimal tinkering is needed.
Bazzite:
I have a big gaming laptop running Bazzite. I mostly use it to stream games to my shitty small laptop to have a poor-man’s Steam Deck. I am really impressed! Everything was just setup and working out of the box. I like the immutable concept. Everything is running in Flatpak and Brew. I can add Distrobox if anything else is needed. And rpm-ostree if I really need a program running “on the system”. Haven’t bothered tinkering with anything (other than changing wallpaper) because I liked it out of the box. One problem is documentation. There’s just so much documentation written for non-immutable distros which won’t work, since immutable distros works differently.
OpenSUSE Tumbleweed:
I have a small 11" Chromebook with touch screen. ChromeOS was EOL on it, and Tumbleweed and Arch were the only viable option. Went with Tumbleweed just to check it out. I’m not impressed. I hate the package manager, and the settings are all over the place. I don’t really see the appeal and I much prefer EndeavourOS. With that said, it works. So I haven’t bother changing distro. Everyone seems to love it, but I don’t get the hype. Probably a me-problem.
EndeavourOS
It’s baby’s first Arch. It’s just Arch with sane defaults and everything set up for you. I love aur and I love that any program you may think of is just running on Arch. Endless possibilities for tinkering. I loved it, but not currently running it. I do wish I had it on my Chromebook but I haven’t bothered with the jump. I have broken it a couple of times. 100% my fault messing around with stuff I shouldn’t have messed with. But it was never that hard to fix. And the wiki is AMAZING! If you don’t do stupid shit, there won’t be a problem.
Debian
Running it on my home server. Rock solid stuff. Great for running a server that doesn’t require bleeding edge and which is just super solid and extremely well documented.
Manjaro:
Stay the fuck away from that stupid shit distro. It almost bricked my laptop and required tons of work to get back up and running. They do stupid shit and the way they hold back packages is just stupid. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Just go with EndeavourOS or Geruda or something.
Ubuntu
No. Just run Mint
NixOS
Really really cool, but you need a bachelor’s in Linux and a lot of time to really reap the benefits of it. Shit documentation.
Same! It’s my go-to Chromium-based browser. It’s the same folks who created the OG Opera browser (not the current Chromium based one)
What is the benefit of running it in Proxmox rather than just containers on bare metal?
They been around since 2007 though, so not my biggest concern right now
I jumped ship over to Quboz for this reason. I’ve been really happy with it
It was a Norwegian platform called Wimp, but Jay-Z bought it, rebranded it to Tidal and moved HQ from Oslo to the states.
I think I would actually love to read this
Still loving it! After fucking up a bunch of times I started reading up on some strategies. Still stuck on London, but I’m enjoying it
Thank you so much for the Mini Metro suggestion! Loving it!
I always thought the point of the loss meme was a sort of “sad rickroll”. That people thought the comic was so sad, and the joke was to remind people of it and make them sad.
Needless to say, I didn’t get it. I thought “people find this really sad I guess”. It was just last week I found out that people do not in fact think it is sad, and the point is just to mock the cartoon
I have been repurposing my EOL Chromebook, and I don’t think they will ever be able to compete with ThinkPads. I like my Chromebook since it is so damn small, however the specs are really bad. And everything is soldered right on the motherboard. So I have 64GB storage (plus an SD-card) and 4GB RAM. I have enabled ZRAM so the CPU is helping out a bit. But even so I struggle with the memory. Browsers are such memory hogs!
That sounds like BlendOS. I haven’t tried either of them, but sounds really cool!
Just to chime in, since a lot of people are recommending Thunderbird as an email client. I would rather check out Betterbird. It’s just smoother with more bug fixes which has not been prioritized in Thunderbird.
