BackOnMyBS, in "Help me choose my first distro" and other questions for beginners

I use KDE Neon, but highly recommend Linux Mint for new users. I’m not in the computer industry, yet I have tried a lot of distros over the past ~15 years. Out of all of them, Linux Mint had the easiest setup by far. The drivers worked without difficulty, the installation was intuitive, the Timeshift app helped me undo any problems I created while tweaking the system, and forums.linuxmint.com is quite helpful. Compare this with KDE Neon, that had me using a second computer for hours to figure out how to get my specific wifi card drivers working. Now that I have had enough time to learn about Linux and troubleshooting, I prefer KDE Neon for the desktop environment, but Linux Mint really is so easy. Again, I highly recommend it.

Thanks for the write up, OP!

I use Vikunja, but you have to self host it, it’s not an app you can just start on your PC

Shareni, in Preparing to move from Ubuntu to Fedora

Check out Nobara. I’ve recently moved to Fedora and it skips a lot of the early hassle.

lurch, in Request for help, I broke some graphics

I’m not familiar with your package manager, but some have logs detailing what exactly they did in chronological order.

I recently switched my laptop to Garuda, it's an Arch based gaming distro. It seems to mostly work right out of the box, but I did have to tweak a few steam games to force them to use my dedicated graphics.

I guess I could go in and force steam itself to use the graphics card via env... But I only have a handful of large games at the moment. It's just as easy to set the requirement per game right now.

Carunga,

I usw Garuda with KDE and like it lot, even though I do not game.

Fedora but I’m not loving it. Due to my hardware I think I’m limited to that, arch and openSuse.

xohshoo,

? If you’re hardware runs Fedora, it should run anything

GustavoM, in 100% vanilla distribution challenge
@GustavoM@lemmy.world avatar

So… install a minimal distro image and the usual with the only caveat of being forced to type something that I want to run in the CLI instead of setting up hotkeys? Such challenge, much horror.
