I haven’t so much as touched windows in 2 and a half years!
Have you tried out the Lightly theme before? It’s very similar to Breeze, but IMO it looks very pretty. Like a more modern version of Breeze, kind of like what I’d hope Breeze would look like in Plasma 6.
I completely agree.
no i haven’t! I quite enjoyed theming cinnamon with gtk3 but nowadays I find that most kde themes are not to my liking, or don’t have gtk themes built in, meaning that if I use them half my apps will be using breeze anyway. Also a lot of them fuck w/ transparency
i always consider swapping to Linux then i remember Destiny doesn’t run on Linux and i have an addiction
That’s why I dual boot. My windows is only for games with anti-cheats which don’t run on Linux. My Linux is for everything else.
Linux is just an operating system, shove it on an old laptop and give it a try.
i recently got an extra ssd so i slapped it on my desktop with debian+cinnamon. if not for game incompatibility and needing to compile dx9 shader binaries i also wouldn’t touch windows. image
what distro is that? I wanna fuck around with Linux a bit more
EndeavourOS. It’s functionally no different than arch with the only change being it has a quicker install process.
would you recommend to a complete novice or not? I’ve heard arch can be tough
Yes. I have found that while other distros may be slightly more “stable” Arch can’t be beat in terms of compatibility and package variety. And to the arch wiki has pretty much every piece of information you could ever need
lol I’m getting conflicting answers. I’ve got a 100gb partition set aside for Linux, I’ll just install and see if I like it
EndeavourOS is not the best for a new user, it’s an easier arch for sure but still a more advanced user operative system.
Things, update pretty frequently, break like it happened months ago with grub, or with the intel driver for laptops, and you need to fix them urself.
But as anything on this world there are downsides and advantages, get one you feel comfortable using and stick with it.
Remember you don’t need to install it to try it or to see if linux is working fine with your hardware, you can just start it from usb.
yeah for now I’m trying to not pressure myself I to using the “best” or most powerful distro, I’m just using whatever works for me so I can use it for basic stuff like the web, Spotify, discord etc, and I can always move to a more powerful distro later. and yeah, I always test on USB before I install
Wait, grub broke again? Glad I moved to systemd-boot forever ago

Do people actually daily-drive Neon? I thought it was just used for testing purposes!

endeavoros. a lot of people use the neofetch command when showcasing their setup. it’s in the console
That’s EndeavourOS, an arched based distro that makes installing and using arch really easy. I’m currently using it on my main machine, don’t think I’ve had more than a couple problems with it.
