Musk has openly supported right-wing politicians such as Trump and Meloni in Italy

Not right-wing, far right. Or fascists. Even though Meloni is much more coherent than Trump so it’s difficult to put both of them in the same basket.

I’m too old to say that one distribution is better than another one. The selling points : I have no admin at all to do, and no trouble for 5+ years, although I’m pretty sure I would have had the same results with Arch or Endeavour. I like their default configuration for KDE plasma, and I like their software update workflow. If you’re happy with your distribution, keep it 😁

I’m a very happy Manjaro user and have been for more than 5 years.

Let’s just say it doesn’t seem to be a popular opinion around here!

Good to hear, my impression of OpenSuse was from 10+ years ago, I should have said so.

Most distributions are fine honestly. Ubuntu is clearly not my thing. Not a fan of Redhat-based distribution either. I wanted to appreciate OpenSuse as they’ve been supporters of KDE for a long time but wasn’t comfortable with Yast.

Apart from that, Manjaro is awesome, Arch amazing, Debian brilliant, etc.

Exactly I really don’t get the argument there. Manjaro’s handling of kernel selection is brilliant. Multiple LTS kernels, a recommended one, bleeding hedge and experimental ones. There’s something for everyone and it’s super easy to use.

A little, I must have 10 AUR packages installed.

Did someone really manage to convince you that Fedora would be more stable than Manjaro?

For the record, I’ve been using Manjaro for 3 years without any reinstall on my main laptop and I still haven’t witnessed any stability issue. My experience with Fedora has not been similar at all…

Still don’t get why you don’t have a third one (non-US guy here)

Seriously, all code produced by French devs are in English minor a few personal projects

It would indeed. “Problematic by design” then?

Using my company’s network, access to Google (Gmail) authentication is blocked by the firewall. Why haven’t they done similarly if employees aren’t supposed to do so?

Having a rock-solid Debian stable as a desktop with up-to-date softwares when it matters. It sounded impossible a few years ago but that might be achievable now with Flatpak. That’s awesome.

My wife’s 3 years old MacBook with the software bar is such a nightmare to use. I get really pissed off whenever I get close to this thing. Between the poorly placed bar and the weird touchpad, never again.

Unfortunately the difference is huge. It’s not just the cost of learning a new tool, it’s that 10% of really important features are not there. For me for example it was the ability to apply a theme to an existing presentation in Impress. Well in the corporate world, it’s mandatory.

Using Linux daily since 99, as my only personal OS since 2013, and still struggling with the office alternatives.

I was referring to the comment section. No one talks about it.

So, no one talks about Ktorrent? It just works perfectly for me. Kudos to the developers!

You’re having me confused. I’ll never share any playlist and I’m on Spotify, should I leave then?

Because that’s the universal text messaging platform - everybody’s got it. And because we’re receiving messages from companies via SMS.

I was a Signal fan until they decided to drop SMS. Now it’s just an app with 1% of my friends.
