GingeredThinking about maybe switching to Fedora Sway Atomic from Arch on my desktop, and to Fedora Budgie Atomic from KDE Neon on my laptop.I've been "living in" Rocky and Alma Linux servers at work; it would be nice to consolidate my mindset on my home computers as well.Love Arch, been using it since 2010 or so, and I could always go back.KDE Neon is nice, I recommend it if you want a traditional PC experience without much technical knowledge.<a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/distrohopping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#distrohopping</a>

bogwitchZuerst hab ich <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/linuxmint" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LinuxMint</a> installiert. Das war toll, aber in meinen Spielen funktionierte Alt-zum-Item-highlighten nicht. Die <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/popos" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PopOS</a> Oberfläche sah altbacken aus und hatte das gleiche Alt-Problem Dann hab ich <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/kde" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#KDE</a> auf <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/mint" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Mint</a> installiert und war happy. Bis nach einen Update der Discover App store nicht mehr funktionierte, und damit auch Updates nur noch über Konsole. <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/kubuntu" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Kubuntu</a> hat Snaps die ewig luden, das hab ich schnell wieder weggemacht.

Auf <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/pikoos" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PikoOS</a> das Gleiche Problem. <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/nobara" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Nobara</a> lief prima, aber der Store ist textbasiert, und die Spaltenbreite nicht änderbar.

Olga Matná-Schrödingerová<a href="https://mastodon.social/@Delmariano" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@Delmariano</a> Ponieważ żona i syn byli już oswojeni z Cinnamonem z czasów użytkowania zwykłego Minta, a LMDE oryginalnie jest „cynamonowe”. Natomiast Tato łatwo „przeskoczył” z Minta z LXDE wpierw na zwykłego z Xfce, a potem na LMDE przyprószone cynamonem. Unifikacja ułatwiła mi uczenie ich samodzielnego rozwiązywania drobnych problemów i zgłaszania problemów, które raczej są dla nich „nieprzeskakiwalne”. Ponadto nie mają problemów w razie konieczności skorzystania z nie swojego sprzętu. Przyczyna „przesadzenia” całej skomputeryzowanej części rodziny z Ubuntu Studio na LMDE, a nie zwykły Mint to temat na odrębną opowieść.Oprócz laptopa mam jeszcze „blacharę” z SSD o efektywnej pojemności 111GB, na której „najdziksze wyprawiam swawole” ze skutecznym zainstalowaniem obok siebie czterech różnych dystrybucji włącznie. Aktualnie mam tam dwa systemy: – podstawowy to oparty na Debianie AV MX Linux (dlaczego nie Ubuntu Studio, to część wspomnianej odrębnej opowieści); – na mniejszej partycji miało być coś „normalnego”, jednak gdy prosty, oparty na Debianie, Netrunner z KDE Plasma zaczął regularnie „psuć” zegar podczas uruchamiania, wskutek czego każdorazowo musiałam ręcznie ustawiać zegar i kalendarz, to „pogoniłam go gdzie pieprz rośnie” i zastąpiłam Mageią, opartą na pakietach „rpm”, co ma tę zaletę, że zniechęca mnie to do wyżywania się na komputerze poprzez rzucanie zaklęć w terminal, bo na razie nie „umiem w dnf-y” (zaklęcia do tego typu pakietów), więc potulnie aktualizuję system i instaluję programy przez centrum oprogramowania i aktualizacji.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/distrohopping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#distrohopping</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MXLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MXLinux</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Mageia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Mageia</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Debian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Debian</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Cinnamon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Cinnamon</a>
