Linux Mint 22 released: An attractive option for migrating away from Windows | Windows 11 system requirements block millions of PCs from upgrading, while Linux Mint continues to work on older hardware

  • Mint's ok other than that ubun taint Years ago it was a one man show, not as much now?
    I came & went from Mint 2010, I don't remember specifics, something about network shares

    My criteria is corporate or community?
    Tinker or work?
    Bleeding edge or just works
    KDE/qt or Gnome/gtk, there are a few DE's forked from Gnome
    I like the consistency across KDE apps of being able to have a custom toolbar & shortcuts

    I like community built, user friendly, KDE

    Whatever you choose, install the meta package. You can add a DE, but you will have to chase weird crap & it will never be as good as a clean install
    I like to install whatever I want to test on usb3 external nvme/sdd/hdd & use the Home [files] on the main machine or copy home as backup, best way to get the full effect of any distro
    Just to be safe I like to have stuff from different parts of the linux world as backups

    Debian MX just works, been good since they got over their init fixation, got all sorts of user friendly stuff, 6 month release cycle, enough community to keep it working
    I just downloaded Spiral linux all the nice touches, but updates direct from debian, kind of like the various arch installers, but not quite so do it yourself
    I don't really like synaptic, the text is too small, takes too long

    Arch
    Manjaro
    As much arch as you want
    Very user friendly, big community, Pamac [best package manager], rolling release

    Red hat Suze is having weirdness from corporate again
    I'm on Mageia, a long history of user friendly [drak tools], stable, just works
    Very good community, 18 month release cycle, nice online version upgrade, rpm packages

    • This is why people should stop recommending Arch. Fedora or Opensuse TW should be recommended instead for new people.

  • Looks like open suze is going to experience more corporate bullshyt
    The parent is suggesting the non corporate part is going to need to be renamed

    I lost interest in open suze after I was dead ended on version 15

    • Elon Musk Reportedly Offered SpaceX Employees Sperm to Seed Mars Colony

  • Elmo put it back in your pants...

    • I don't find therapy all that useful.

  • The highest aspiration for capitalism is to have "passive income" to be a gatekeeper, find some little loop hole to exploit, socialize the costs & privatize the profits

    • Top EU Court Says There’s No Right To Online Anonymity, Because Copyright Is More Important

  • Copyright imbues the creation with a level of uniqueness that is greatly exaggerated
    Given a set of facts & tools people will come to similar or identical conclusions
    So What?
    Should that entitle you to be a gatekeeper forever?

    Humans have an urge for legacy. Legacy is probably the most destructive of human traits, it manifest as hoarding a bunch of resources, having as many children as possible, being noticed, being "famous". The last two are having your legacy NOW

    Legacy is self preservation exaggerated to extremes
