My new favorite Distro (once more) for getting people into #Linux is @elementary. It's not scary as people believe Linux to be, has the potential to impress #macOS users, and just works! PS: there's much more to ElementaryOS than just the visuals, which it has been popular for.

My #Arch setup just got faster than ever. It starts on a CLI, I can jump into and out of graphical #i3wm or #gnomeshell on demand and then return to the most responsive interface ever: the shell.💻🤓

Just tried #Gnome Boxes and am already impressed.🖥️🤓

Not that I plan to leave #archlinux any time soon, #popos blew my mind once more, just like it did a few times before. I can't appreciate #system76 enough for the kind of #Linux experience they've created that could help us get more members to the community.

Having watched the new #gnome video, I gave it another try over my #LXQT / #MATE / #Cinnamon as my secondary DE. Not that it's day and night since the last time I tried it, but I realized that no matter how much I've been trying to run away from it, it's probably that DE from Linux that would represent itself in front of other close-source OS's in the industry.

Today I started `term` in my Emacs for a quick #git commit and I found it to be way snappier than I'm used to. I shouldn't have been surprised being used to #Hyper as my default terminal emulator.

So I used to believe that `pacman` on #Arch is difficult and then I came across this: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gentoo_Cheat_Sheet

After months of filling gaps, I do not need #Arco anymore and can finally say, "By the way, I use Arch". #archlinux

Milestone! #archlinux

I fail to find myself capable of realizing why this would be inappropriate or offending to anyone to deserve a downvote. #StackOverflow 😕

That moment when you find yourself piping the output of a command to the same command #ripgrep

`rg --help | rg replace`

And I was stuck with #grep! https://beyondgrep.com/feature-comparison 🤓
