We found the imposter!

why doesn’t my version have a launch button like the gif, btw? Genuine question. I have to launch it separately from SUPER+A every time

prime_number_314159,

A major factor is the window manager you use, and the settings of that window manager. I’m not up to speed with it, but I think this one is GNOME.

Was going to upvote then saw them install chrome. Just why? Use Firefox or Chromium

Use Firefox, not Chromium

HarryS,

No, use GNU IceCat instead, don’t be shacked down by proprietary blobs restricting your freedom in your web browser

Now show how much trouble windows users need to go through to remove S-mode because Microsoft considers chrome to be a “potential security risk”, which… Yeah, it kinda is!

And also the scrapped Longhorn Windows

I thought Linux users hated “stores”

Madagaskar_sky,

? Linux has had “stores” since forever, the distro repositories. That is what this is. Linux users hate walled gardens, like App Store and Play Store.

qjkxbmwvz,

We love package managers though!

Most Linux users like the benefits of having a single command/interface to search for, install, and update software. The problem is when the source(s) for those programs is locked down.

cows_are_underrated, in Can't relate to be honest, I still use MBR boot

Im happy that I haven’t fucked up the bootloader so far. Don’t want to fix that shit too.

Installed Chrome via GUI

kinda sus

XyliaSky, in Linux users when

I’ve got a Steam Deck, and just installed Bazzite onto it, and I’m currently wishing that installing everything was as simple as this. Back when I used Linux daily there wasn’t this whole idea of “rootless” and immutable and sandboxed environments, and just figuring out how to get yad installed for steamtinkerlaunch to work had me faffing about with Nix and Fleek and Distrobox, and they’re all neat if I had the time to learn them but long story short I wish everything was package managers with a simple GUI.

It’s called unixporn for a reason

rickyrigatoni, in Can't relate to be honest, I still use MBR boot

I had used Arch for years before and never once messed up my bootloader. What are yinz doing over there?

Matthew,

PA dripping off this comment

rickyrigatoni,

Nyehehe :3

pete_the_cat,

My problems are usually during the installation, not necessarily related to Arch, but more so that EFI requires its own partition. I’ll partition my disk, forget that I need a FAT32 partition and then have to destroy a partition so I can add in the EFS . The other problem I’ve had is that the bootloader entry sometimes doesn’t get written after installation, so you reboot and then nothing, so you have to boot back into the ISO, remount everything, reinstall the bootloader (in my case, Grub), and reboot again.

You probably had it installed in MBR mode. UEFI boot is why there are so many problems of this kind nowadays. Switch to MBR, the problems go away.

MapleEngineer, in Can't relate to be honest, I still use MBR boot

Nuke the boot loader and burn your compiled code directly onto the bare metal the way the designers intended.

OK, how do we do that?

cashews_best_nut,

Get yourself a copy of Floorp. It’ like Librewolf but better.
