I usually recommend Pop_OS! (Though I havent tried that one myself) or the good old classic Linux Mint.

The amount of times I’ve been asked to make someone a website or app…

Oh, so you can Programm? Surely you know how to make this cool idea using AI I just had!

Most people dont even know, that there are like 50 different fields that are somewhere in the space of IT/Programming and of these fields only a quite small amount of do develop apps or websites.

if you use any modern distro installing most software is braindead easy. if you have to compile something yourself (which isnt that often) it can get quite funny because one hell of a lot can go wrong.

This isnt true. You only have this problem with rather obscure software (which was what I tried to install)

Yeah sure, I gonna setup everything again just because a single piece of software is not available on my pc

What? Its something I do quite regularly.

If it would be that easy. The problem I had was, that I installed a dependency using my package manager, but to compile my originally wanted software I had to provide a cmake file (of the dependency I installed via my package manager) to the compiler, which I of course did not have.

It means that I did not installed a certain software due to the dev not providing any binaries or at least making it a little bit easier to compile it myself.

Would be nice if all software would be ready as a flatpak or appimage.

The only reason I am using fedora is because I wanted to try it out. I did use Arch (and also Endeavour) before but wanted to try out fedora.

Sadly Im on Fedora.

It was on Fedora.

And if you install it often enough you might change from bro to sis /s

Ah, than I got some stuff mixed.

That’s the funny thing, it goes quite well for some time and then you accidentally completely brick your system.

Idk if its legal to sink pirates but good luck with trying that.

Damn, that’s one hell of a learning curve. I struggled with doing the most basic stuff on Linux Mint. Theres no way I would have been able to handle arch as my first install.

This is peak comedy xD

The thing with Windows 11 Hardware requirements isnt that its poorly optimised (tbf, it is poorly optimised, but computers that have the power to run it can’t) but because windows 11 requires your CPU to have TPM(? Im Not sure), which only newer CPUs have. So even if your PC could run it, it can’t due to the TPM Requirement.

Since you are already using arch I guess you kinda know what youre doing so you should be fine.
