One of the worst news I’ve read lately.

Why aren’t Israeli maintainers removed? Oh because linux is basically owned by IBM now.

The linux kernel isn’t free anymore. It’s open source, but not free.

Skill issue

Can we shine more light on the oyghur massacre and slavery? This and the war in gaza are the most fucked up thing in humanity right now and will forever be a huge stain on humanity.

Why does it only have git sign in? What If I don’t want to use those shitty git services?

Just curious. I tried distrobox and it wasn’t that easy. Isn’t flatpak+appimage+nix better alternative?

Removed by mod

That makes no sense. I think he should use home assistant for his home automation.

Isreal is the terrorist of the human race.

Mint is just lovely

My philanthropic beliefs and love of freedom. I was absolutely amazed when I found out about open source and free software. Then I got to it and loved it even more, the community, the UI and DEs, how much you could customize everything and how much choices you had. But mostly it is the philosophical beliefs that makes me love linux. Even if it is not better than some alternatives in some aspects, I willl still stand by it.

thank you. this was helpful. however I coudn’t manage to use the admin APIs

EndeavorOS or Arch.

Yes. Its tilling.Inn my opinion, if you wanna go the wm route, why not go the tiling route and get rid of using mouse alltogether (ツ)

You honestly can’t go wrong with using i3. It’s super simple to use and has great documentation.

Ubuntu. It’s violating many rules of freedom, and just isn’t good. Their DE spins aren’t good, snaps aren’t good

Alacritty + tmux OR urxvt

debian unstable or opensuse and flatpaks

I didn’t say they are on my residential internet.

don’t go expensive, a 500-700$ laptop is perfect for programming. don’t buy thin, mac-like laptops. go with beefier workstation laptops. I highly suggest buying a good refurbished laptop. if it has a dedicated GPU, AMD is highly preferable over NVIDIA, but both work.

almost all hardware works really fine with linux nowadays. I have a lenovo legion y540, works great, but if I didn’t want to game on it, I would go with a workstation laptop.

slimbook seems to make good laptops made for linux.

why people still use this garbage is beyond me. they honestly deserve it.
