  • My piece of advice if you have 2 drives, and this goes for any OS not just Linux.

    1. drive for your OS
    2. drive purely for storage. never store anything in the 1 drive except for user installed programs or updates.

    that way you can wipe the first drive whenever you run into anything or you want to change anything without being worried about losing data

    make sure your browser is using a password manager so stored passwords don't vanish

  • Yeah. it's dogshit but they certainly have the capacity to improve. it's clear where their priorities are: milk users for profit

  • I think Windows could be a far better OS than Linux if Microsoft gave a single shit. Instead they want to add AI and recall and various invasive updates.

    The only thing windows has going is the market share.

  • Unpopular opinion maybe but I like Lemmy and lemmy users and I'm glad that we're a bit different from Reddit. At least in my experience it feels a bit different.

  • A mistake people make very often is to conflate the distro with a "look" or "theme" to the UI, and it's not their fault.

    Distros bundle a desktop environment which contains many applications used to navigate the computer graphically with things like "file managers" such as Windows explorer for example.

    A DE can bundle lots of programs or very few and these programs differ in looks and functionality, not only that but these programs can be installed / uninstalled regardless of what distro you're using.

    In short: distro doesn't affect DE but must distros bundle a DE based on things like philosophy, functionality or maybe just looks.

    There are many DEs which is why I suggested installing CachyOS as part of the installation shows you options, you can try them out rewipe the drive, try out another one in less than 3 minutes. So it's the perfect sandbox environment to try new things. I guess you can use VMs as well, not sure how well cachyos works on VM.

    As a personal note on DEs when I first used Linux about 5 years ago I used KDE plasma because I thought it was the most windows-like. But I had many issues with KDE, chances are if you use your search engine you'll see similar complaints about it which I likely share.

    5 years in the future my favourite DE is basically using Sway and a file manager like Nautilus. Sway has Swaybar as a status bar and that's really all I need.

    Not sure if Sway counts as a DE though, I think it's a window manager first and foremost.

  • but on the other hand if we tell you to use an used Thinkpad you won't like that either right ?

  • RX 9070 when it comes out, Mint is good but there are so many good options. I suggest using cachyos and trying out all the DEs so you pick something you like. Although you don't have to stick with CachyOS if you don't want to.

  • Maybe it's a personality thing but for things I care about I can't just not try. I have to try. People that don't try in their hobbies are pathetic to me. You mean to tell me you're here stuck on this rock with me and you're this bad at the one thing you claim to love the most ?

  • I started with nano and I hated it, I didn't understand what anything meant in the bottom bar, like what is ^X. Unironically vim was easier to understand. I know what it is now but as a new user I didn't like using it.
