My son always has his phone at school. Given how America is I wouldn’t send him to school without a way to get a hold of me.

I mean I’ll check out the all sort just to see if some new communities pop up but it definitely isn’t a way to consume content you actually want.

Just only use a subscription view.

My internet is shit but it’s cheap. 19 usd a month for 40mbps down and 5 up. It’s cheap enough that I can’t complain really.

I’ve gone back and forth with Garuda and Endeavor. Currently I’m on Endeavor and everything is pretty good, I definitely had a better time gaming with Garuda though.

Its honestly very usable. Touch has some weirdness and I haven’t gotten it working on my device but its one of the laptops not the tablets so I don’t really care for touch. Look through the Table of Supported Features that OP linked to make sure whatever device you plan to pick up supports everything or is at least being worked on.

I’m currently running EndeavorOS on my Surface Laptop 4. I’ll admit it was a pain to get working right, especially since I have the amd model, but damn once it’s working its so nice.

Readarr and Lidarr have been less than functional for me. I switched to Deemix for music and just use libgen for books now.

I spent so much time trying to find a good reader. Nothing quite scratched that itch I have for google news but less shit. Eventually I came across Artifact. Not an rss reader but it’s the best news app I’ve come across.

Manjaro is what got me into Arch so I’ll always have a soft spot for it. I don’t keep up with internet drama so much but I do remember people saying some stuff about the devs being shady/shitty. But I’m not sure how much truth there is to that.
