  • This is good information.

    Yeah I imagine the struggles I had with Debian had something to do with enabling proprietary drivers and firmware and leveraging those. Before getting those drivers, the default nouveau drivers were awful, the performance was comically bad.

    I’m also not a Linux power user though, so for sure any or all of the above could be meatware issues.


  • I’m about ready to hop back in and daily drive Linux again after the nightmare that was attempting debian w/KDE plasma and Wayland. I have a Nvidia GPU on my laptop and for some reason I did not have luck at all after moderate success daily driving opensuse tumbleweed and kubuntu for a while.

    I’m admittedly looking to onboard myself to the gnome workflow and leave the comfort of the windows style desktop environment experience. Gnome seems a bit more polished and stable than KDE plasma but it’s interface isn’t intuitive to me yet.

    Ideally I’ll be using Debian or Arch when the time comes for me to dive back into desktop Linux.


  • This is a daunting proposition, I’m admittedly massively invested in Google’s ecosystem. Gmail and Google calendar, I have a pixel phone, watch and buds and have YouTube premium. I feel like the time I switch is when I have a homelab and am able to find open source alternatives to everything heavily use and be able to do so with all devices I use.




  • Either 2 and 3 or 3 and 7.

    Free gravel is fantastic, a ton of practical things to be done with it and is otherwise expensive.

    Teleporting 7 inches away is enough to get you past many barriers and walls, that's not insignificant. This seems the coolest to me.

    Being able to determine if a container is empty or not seems pretty cool as well although I can't think of a good example of how this would be useful.

    The rest are hilarious.
