Don’t get scared. Even when you f*ck up the most you can just wipe out the theme related files from your home folder and start from scratch. GNOME is probably the least customizable, among DEs KDE, XFCE, LXDE, MATE, they all work well, or you could also try tiling wms or classic wms like fvwm…

Wonderful. Heh, my reply’s MUCH late but… How’s Phosh running without GPU accel? I’m charging my hammerhead again to try Mobian instead, hope its easy :)

It has been awesome until 2013 when they decided to make their browser a skin on top of Chromium. Now they had more UI revamps and it doesn’t work or feel like Opera at all. I tried using it sometimes ago and now they even got those weird huge buttons…

Slackware is still awesome. I’m typing this from my Slackware 15 machine. Rock solid distro.

Devuan or Debian is great.

Awesome. In pmOS there are issues related to the GPU like not being able to turn the screen off, or X11 not working (only wayland), is there a status overview or list of nonworking features?

Though I’m curious how does teletry work in a GNU/Linux system? Is there some daemon like ‘telemetryd’ that watches /var/log or something…?

I usually use WindowMaker or FVWM but as a desktop environment… CDE

Slackware

• the most rock stable distro imo. No systemd or snap stuff. Packages are almost (if not fully) vanilla version from upstream. Simple yet efficient unix-style approach to everything like package management, slackbuilds are really good too.
