Endless Os is solid! It’s my go to for ppl who don’t know jack about Linux. But it’s also just a really well put together distro.
My favorite feature by far is just Auto updates. It’s the only distro I’ve used where Auto updates just work. Everything stays updated zero tweaks required no interruption of workflow. It’s honestly so good at it that I forget that it even updates. And that doesn’t just go for the OS that goes for apps too.
It also runs well on just about any hardware I’ve ever put it on. I just put it on my buddy’s Toshiba satellite laptop that’s rocking an I5 4200u and a 5400rpm hard drive. Takes a second to boot but doesn’t miss a beat once it’s up and running.
It is very flatpak centric but if you’re looking for that Chrome OS feel it’s about as close as you can get.
Why you don’t like Wayland would be a more interesting post.
Hey we all have our unix philosophy cringe phase. Just let the kid play he will grow up one day.
I didn’t say it was hard just said flatpaks are easy. Also why don’t you post a solution?
I would uninstall and use the flatpak. Way easier than solving dependencie issues
So his Meme is correct the system will break if you force it to uninstall something?
18 years of running linux on my computers because windows is insufferable in some way or form. Windows 11 Pro was actually fairly decent at first I even liked the UI despite its issues. Then updates broke and even digging into the cmd prompt tools couldn’t fix it. Which is just insane to me as a company that is hoovering up my data cant figure out updates. I dont even care all that much about the privacy aspect if it just worked. Hell its why I use google services. But every version of windows I have used since XP has had some sort of fatal error that could only be fixed with a clean install. When that happens its my sign to go on a distro hop.
Dark patterns have also just become the norm in Windows and Mac OS. Honestly kind of sad because both OS’s at one point in time had there high points where they felt like they were built for the user. Now they are glorified billboards that run apps.
This! I literally give Windows a chance every version. I even kind of liked Windows 11 this go around.
But something always breaks and no matter how much I trouble shoot the fix is to reinstall windows. To which I say screw that and start distro hoping.
11 with 2022 gaming laptop just stopped updating. The only non native app I had on the thing was STEAM! I have been using Linux for 18 years because it’s the only way I know how to fix Windows.
This is actually the first of probably many of these cases from this little incident
Glad he left Russia! The loss of minds like this is what is really going to hurt Russia in the long run.
Man do i miss the days when I was on the Russia sub reddit back in the day and could talk with free minded people about the countries culture and history. That Sub went to absolute shit after Putin retook power the second time.
If you go a long time without updating there are generally lots of updates. So when you update sometimes you can have dependency issues. Basic maintenance prevents this.
Personally I never have this issue and generally don’t have any issues with Arch. Truly have no idea why people think it’s unstable. Maybe bad experiences with Manjaro which is Arch based. Now that distro has stability issues! Garuda and vanilla arch have been rock solid as far as my experience goes.
Arch is actually really stable if you keep it updated. Where it gets ya is if you don’t update it for a couple months or longer.
I run silverblue for my tv computer and I can confirm!
I only print docs and pictures. But in my opinion printing on Linux is largely better than Windows. It just works most of the time. And if there is an issue the solution is generally restarting the job.
