I had a distrohopping period from 2014 to 2016, then spent a year on archlinux which was the most interesting and stable for me. It was so fun to customize and tinker with stuff and i'm not even a programmer or anything. But then I bought a decent PC and just installed W10 LTSC which is also very stable and too simple to use.

>>56414Update I have been using this for a while but I think I should explain the reasons Gnome works for me, and may not be worth it for you
1. I stay inside emacs for a lot of things, so I don't need to use my mouse. Gnome is heavily mouse driven and the keybinds are cumbersome and inconsistent compared to something like a minimal OS where (for example) i3, vim, mpv, ranger, and MUpdf all share keybinds and you don't have to use a mouse.
2. My mouse sensitivity is set high 4800 dpi. This means I can use the "hot corner" which causes pic related, a mode where you can search for programs, files or select a window.
3. I don't game. Gnome use wayland which AFAIK doesn't support wine and maybe some other important stuff but im not to sure yet
4. I have 8Gb ram.

>A. It's missing a piece of software that you're used to.In this case Linux usually has alternatives that are feature complete. The reason it's still a problem for people is because they don't want to get used to the alternatives. They might know rationally that Microsoft Excel doesn't offer more than Linux spreadsheet software, but they're so used to it that it seems like too much effort to learn something new.
>B. Incompatible with their hardware.Not a Linux issue, it's usually an issue of Microsoft paying nvidia to delay device drivers for Linux and Mac or Nvidia paying a game developer to sabotage performance on AMD platforms
>C. It's different.When someone gets really used to a specific thing it can be hard to change.
>D. Bonus: Fell for propagandaLinux always outperforms Windows except on the newest video games or video games that don't get native Linux ports. I suppose if someone only cares about new triple-A games then Windows is the best option. However, Linux still outperforms Windows in memory footprint, CPU utilization, disk space, and more. It's kind of well known that Windows cannot compete with MacOS and Linux but I thought I'd throw that in. Really, Windows is the gamers choice but not because it has good performance itself, but because most games are designed to perform well on Windows(because most gamers use Windows).

How do you deal with all the little quirks of running windows software on linux? Or maybe even just software that has inferior integration with linux than it does on windows. I was just thinking steam is pretty awful on linux, randomly freezes, ui doesn't conform to the de, sometimes games even have linux builds but they run awfully and you need to tweak them a whole bunch. Also file managers don't work how I want them to, upload boxes in firefox/chrome only show list views.

I'm not completely against using Windows, just tired with its rough edges that you can do nothing about, only cover or pretty it up.
In the end though it probably has to deal more with a longing for "my own" or "perfect" OS, where everything is just the way one wants. Switching for Linux/GNU might not help with that itch. At the very least I should still try them on a spare machine once/if I get one.

>>59128>In the end though it probably has to deal more with a longing for "my own" or "perfect" OS, where everything is just the way one wants. Switching for Linux/GNU might not help with that itch. Not the person you're replying to, but I'd give it a shot. Linux undoubtedly has its issues, and it's true that, at the end of the day, Linux is composed of a ton of different parts made by different people, and there are a billion different distros and DEs, so consistency can be all over the place (it's getting better, though, in my opinion). However, I'd argue that one of the nice things about Linux is that you can basically put together your own desktop environment from scratch, which means that your desktop can (mostly) be as consistent and polished as you're willing to make it. It also means that you can implement a ton of personalized functionality that would be difficult to achieve with an WYSIWYG program or operating system. It's hard to describe if you're used to using systems like that, but with some imagination you can get really creative with what you make your computer do. If nothing else, it's fun. For example, here's a demonstration of a program that lets you make your own menus/prompts, which you can use in conjunction with scripts you write:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9m723tAurAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCEXY46t3OAI think it's a bit of an exaggeration to say you can "brick your system" just from an update–I've certainly never heard of a Linux update wiping people's files the way Windows has done in the past (repeatedly). I use Arch which has a reputation for being unstable, and the most I've ever had to do is just hold back an update since some programs weren't launching (and it turns out my system was fucked due to something that was my own fault anyway). On the note of games, there are a lot of games out there that are genuinely just a one-click play through Proton, but there's still a LOT out there that require minor tweaks to get working. That being said, if Valve is serious about the Steam Deck as a product, they're presumably going to strive to clean up those rough edges. It doesn't hurt to keep a Windows dual boot (or, if you're adventurous, a Windows VM with GPU passthrough) around for gaming.

Just one of the simple things that annoys me, but there are many more small issues like this, gtk/qt bullshit, stuff like steam that doesn't follow any rules whatsoever, just random applications not conforming to your rules because the devs were just like "idk lol works on windows"
>I think it's a bit of an exaggeration to say you can "brick your system" just from an update–I've certainly never heard of a Linux update wiping people's files the way Windows has done in the past Well not completely bricked, you could go in and probably get a terminal up and try to fix whatever went wrong, going over google searches for hours and for example finding out your display manager broke or something because it doesn't work with some new libs you updated or whatever. The potential for this tomfoolery is definitely there which isnt there for windows, also never experienced any file wipes on windows in my life, only time Ive seen that is when my parents get angry because they want to use their pc but they told it to update so they just keep shutting it off mid-update/repair until it doesn't work anymore
>if Valve is serious about the Steam Deck as a product, they're presumably going to strive to clean up those rough edgestheir client is awful on linux, the new chat thing they added a while back has a memory leak on linux and crashes every few hours if you are using it often, it pretty much dropped support for custom theming now and doesn't respect your DE's rules, source games have horrible performance on linux, you can't even play goldsrc games on linux unless you have some specific sound drivers.

I run Arch Linux on my desktop and Void Linux on my laptop. Both are great distros. I use either IceWM or Ratpoison depending on the mood. IceWM emulates old MS Windows (but it has also optionally support for sloppy focus), and Ratpoison is just like Tmux but for managing GUI windows (it's a manually tiling WM. By default all windows are maximized but you can split the screen if/when you want to). Ratpoison also has optional support for sloppy focus but if you want Ratpoison with click to focus (and other goodies), you might want to try StumpWM. StumpWM is written and configured in Common Lisp but it's more heavy than Ratpoison and some say StumpWM is more unstable but I had zero issues with it when I used it for a few days (I just didn't need the extra features it has). Also, note that typically you want to use keybinding for focusing windows in Ratpoison and StumpWM (using the mouse for that is optional).
>>56341Since you asked… Manjaro is not a very good distro. Read
https://archive.fo/B8yll (or
https://web.archive.org/web/20230708070056/https://manjarno.snorlax.sh The original domain has expired)
The gist of it is:
* Manjaro uses a bleeding edge rolling release distro (Arch Linux) as it's base but Manjaro doesn't push updates to its package repos immediately. Arch Linux expects that the users are always fully up-to-date (only the latest versions are supported and Arch repos are updated very often). From design point of view, this leads to a problem: How to ensure that bugs (possibly security related) get fixed on time on Manjaro? Arch Linux doesn't support any old packages (they tell you to update your system with pacman -Syu).
* They replaced LibreOffice with a proprietary office suite:
https://itsfoss.com/libreoffice-freeoffice-manjaro-linux/ (they have reverted this but only after the community reacted badly to this change)
* Manjaro's own AUR (Arch User Repository) helper tool (in effect) DDoS'ed AUR because of bug its code (if you are looking for a good AUR helper, I recommend rua. It's pretty nice and it lets you review PKGBUILD files and patch files easily if you want to).
EndeavourOS is more stable but just as easy to use as Manjaro. Arch Linux also has an installer (archinstall) but I recommend either Linux Mint, Xubuntu/Kubuntu or EndeavourOS for new Linux users.

I use Qubes OS as a daily driver. It's incredible. The level of security and flexibility compared to linux/windows basically makes me feel like im cumming every day. Dozens of interconnected disposable virtual machines spinning up an self-destructing with a few clicks. I have a separate PC with windows just for games and hi-res films.
Windows is so hostile and unusable now it is shocking, Qubes is unironically more comfortable. I can't post a picture because admin doesnt let me post them with VPNs.

I recently switched to Arch from Void. I really wanted to get into Debian but I was having issues getting qtile to work. Any advice from the ricers here on how I can get past this "externally managed" error that I keep running into with Deb?

I… I am having issues getting qemu to work correctly. Merry xmas I am going back to Void. I need to learn more and get good before I ask for help. Still new to Linux and I guess I know less than I thought. Breaking things.

>>66975If you’re going to be running Linux as a desktop OS it’s probably easier just to run an Arch based system simply for all of the documentation and AUR. I would consider myself exceptionally Linux savvy but trying to tinker around on a Debian system was just problem after problem, especially if you needed software that isn’t included in the official repository… (almost never an issue with an Arch system).
