Nix because I have a bad memory and hate doing things more than once

The gnome on screen keyboard feels lacking to me, there’s just something up with the user experience that puts me off

Moving to Michigan from wv has taught me one thing, people don’t really realize how slick ice and slush really is. I man the mountains even if you are going slow you’ll slide up and down the hills and turns, even small ones. Up here where it’s all flat and straight lines people go 80 through ice that they probably don’t realize they can’t stop or even really turn on effectively without huge risk. TAKE IT SLOW always be sure of road conditions and you ability before going out

Being unable to use local accounts without a ton of headache, and menus always trying to force you to use their services

Gnome on Nixos I like how standard it is I know what to expect

I jump shipped to arch when I first started out. But I had experience with Linux vms for school already

The ball was silver and completely reflective. The seen basically looked like that image used for ray tracing testing. No gender just a hand. Table was black

A vast number of users won’t switch

I mean is there any really reason though, they both run on the same subsystem and they aren’t doing anything crazy

In my home town getting to most basic necessities took 20min driving. Mind you that was the capital city of my state

There’s little to know customization outside extensions which are very powerful but prone to breaking. The gone mindset is to support basically one workflow and to make changes as it needs fit regardless of stability. Personally I like this, it prevents things from getting stuck in the past. Plus I’m not one for extreme desktop ricing.

Edit: also I’m a huge fan of declarative systems like nix, and with little to no support for layout config outside of their GUI tool it introduces and unknown variable for me

I mean if it’s goal was to prevent scripts from using the graphics env maliciously then it seems to have made some progress if you can’t even automate it with good intentions

So… it’s harder to maintain

Double this, nix has entirely changed my perspective on what I should expect from software and my operating system. It’s so rock solid and roll backs are easy. Reproduction with all the customization you could ever want with incredible transparency.

Nix, if not in nix pkg for nix, then nix

Usually you need to patch some stuff as a lot of the hardware doesn’t have mainline support. For the mango pi I found this

The nixos link there works but it’s a bit out dated

Running into this issue with nixos and the mango pi bored currently lol

Every tool has its job. Why should a TTY terminal emulator also be a image/pdf viewer?

Never be afraid to try different distros you can always wipe and try again. You won’t break your computer. I’m a big fan of immutable distros but I’ve never tried fedora blue. Either will make a rock solid system
