I’ve been a Linux user for about a decade and a half, most of that time I’ve been using OpenSUSE, but recently I’ve been hopping again.
For my main machine, I needed a distro that natively runs and installs .deb packages at root for the program used for my language lessons (fcitx5 nor ibus played well with sandboxes) so I’ve landed on Kubuntu for that machine.
But I’m really intrigued by the setup of VanillaOS, apx seems like such a perfect solution in many ways to my needs, but I don’t have as much experience with immutable distros.
Lastly I’m fascinated with NixOS, and really want to get into it, but life is just so busy that I don’t have the energy to devote to learning it.
So, what about you folks?
I started using Linux mint 18 I think 10 years ago, just got a new comp and Linux Mint 22 is pretty good, works great with almost everything but Ableton and Traktor. Honestly, I just use DeepSeek to guide me through everything, I used to dislike all the work I needed to do but now it’s kinda fun.
