You forgot our queer mates, there’s surprisingly a lot more communities about this than I expected

Not anarchy chess people here again

I switched a few weeks ago, it was because my computer is slower than a toaster and windows was tanking it down even more I installed xubuntu, well I must say it’s ok, after I finished setting stuff up I realised I should’ve just gone for debian with xfce (I tried to install kubuntu-deskop on my xubuntu installation just to try how would kde run on my pc, it ran as well as windows did, but was just a tiny tiny bit faster, the way I installed it was probably bad and it could’ve been the way I installed it tho)

And yeah, I definitely love tinkering with stuff so this wasthe obvious choice

Yeah, but developers probably already know what is Linux, either from them learning about it at school or just by other developers

But developers probably already know something about their os, they don’t just use what they get on a computer or a laptop, most of us probably messed with some deep settings of whatever system we use, i. e. something that a regular user won’t do

Yeah, I just wanted to say that if anyone says “this distro is a bit older but it’s really stable and good for use” it’s scaring away people without them even needing it updated since they’re used to getting told by Microsoft that “you have to to update to the newest”

The point about updating apps is also useless to them, as long as it works they will use it, my dad used windows xp with office 2003 until 2021 when the computer finally died, I told him countless times to update to a newer os but he refused every single time

Yet they scream when their 6 months old un-updated windows install wants then to update

Sounds like a security nightmare but it could work in certain cases (like just yesterday I was sharing a google drive link, I probably don’t want that to be archived)

Czech Republic is at 2.53%

This is the birthplace of Red Hat Linux for god’s sake

Every day I wake up and I’m grateful that I don’t live in the land of freedom /s

But seriously, a few million is nothing for these corporations, EU needs to up the game

Considering that you probably have like 4 years of support max (until they end support for internet intel macs) I don’t think it’s a good choice

Yeah, it wasn’t probably the best idea to pick randomly but oh well, can’t switch now ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Thanks, I honestly had a lot of fun doing stuff like this, I originally wanted to install Linux because my pc is a potato but with how windows is going I’ll just keep using Linux

Idk why but it doesn’t let me send the image in a comment here, if you want you can look at the image I uploaded to Reddit

Well they have a (open source to point out) app called powertoys made directly for power users, I must say it’s pretty great, and just the ability to have a launcher is making this a 8/10 app for me

Yeah, I have my Lxqt desktop customised a bit like different icons and fonts, although I’d like to more (the pc having 3gb of ram is a serious limit).

Specifically beacuse I want to have different layout compared to windows beacuse it’s a bit (well probably more than that) bad, especially the windows 11 one, I got to try that one out at my school).

When I get a new computer I definitely want to try and install a different distro to try out the customisation.

Well, I kinda dig this, I’m using lubuntu and it’s certainly better in some ways than windows, and I couldn’t play games on this thing anyway so it’s not like I’m loosing functionality, when I get a new pc I’ll certainly install some different distro and try it out

Sorry, I’m not a native speaker, and also it’s partly beacuse of me fat fingering my phone’s keyboard

no it doesn’t (and I’m more happy that it doesn’t, it would be slow as shit anyway)

Could it run on a old desktop? (Core 2 duo, 3gb ram, HDD, ati sapphire x1650)

I don’t have anything else and windows is absolutely shit on it (yes it’s a 64 bit system)
