I mean… yes those are true? lol.

Surely an unpopular opinion lol.

Python is a great first language.

Bring on the chunked 🤘

I’ll try to check tonight if I have time

Did you submit an issue on GitHub?

There’s not much to it. You just use the determinate installer. Works great.

For simple use cases… Linux can actually be a lot more hands off and just works.

It’s actually pretty great for the grandparent use case.

I’ve been with Fedora for awhile now because I like the project and how it pushes things forward. Changed to Silverblue and never returned.

Now I’m using Bluefin because I like the little tweaks on top of Silverblue. Would recommend.

Have you checked out Aurora?

Bluefin, very happy. Nice toys on top of an atomic Silverblue base. Love the concept.

But if everyone has had Covid… and IQ is relative. Then nothing changes? 😋

Thanks devs!

I yolo’d it without a backup (docker). Working great. Like the improvements.

Like Ubuntu, I like that Fedora is backed by a big company. Fedora is quite good at pushing the Linux ecosystem forward and often adopts and pushes new technology before other distros (flatpaks, Wayland, pipewire, btrfs etc.) that all Linux distros eventually benefit from.

Ubuntu on the other hands seems to want to be the Microsoft of Linux… which is not a compliment. I’ve been put off by things like their pushing of snap packages.

I personally like the stock gnome (on a laptop) or kde (on a desktop) desktops over the cinnamon mint desktop (but mint is closer to windows). Fedora is pretty close to stock (gnome by default).

Fedora has great flatpak integration for installing apps (think App Store) which is my preferred way to do it. Mint has this as well.

Fedora also has semi rolling releases and constant updates, which I prefer over Linux Mint’s 2 year release cycles (this doesn’t matter for any software you install from flatpaks).

I wouldn’t recommend arch as a first distro imo. I don’t see what the advantage would be for a newbie.

Personally I would recommend Fedora.

:q!

Is this a thing in Canada yet? Thankfully have never seen it here.

Yes well, I’m off to my Canadian workplace this morning.

Only federal employees get it off or some such nonsense.

You can have a nefarious developer working for a nation state infiltrate the supply chain for ANY OS.

You don’t know.

I…. Don’t really get why they think this is better. Google search was good…. Other companies can copy AI technology anyway. AI is really just predicting words and wasn’t designed for search, but their old algorithm was.

Whyyyyyy
