Gimpydude, in You have no power here

Malware for Linux is a thing. I see it every day.

newbeni, in Linux servers

I have this shirt…lol

Let me introduce you “Ubuntu”

neonred, in what's your ubuntu?

Debian. So that would be Noteviluntu.

Pilokyoma, in you guys are spying

“Antispyware windows 10”, “Duckduckgo.com”, “Jailbreak (dangerous)”, “Great”

0x4E4F, in Linux servers

And some BSD Linux wannabies.

Hey! You're supposed to be in my router where I don't even realize you exist. Get back in there.

Don’t forget your PS3/4, that ran on BSD as well.

TheyCallMeHacked,

Your Mac technically runs a modified FreeBSD with a modified Mach kernel.

stoy, (edited ) in what's your ubuntu?

On the desk/laptop, Ubuntu, I am just more used to that, though I supose I could try Fedora.

On a server, Debian all the way.

isVeryLoud, (edited )

Ubuntu Server for me, much less finicky than Debian, more stable than Fedora.

I need my servers to just come up and go, and Ubuntu does that.

On a desktop, Fedora for me, because it’s semi-rolling.

stoy,

I should have clarified, at work I have mainly build Ubuntu servers, a few CentOS thrown in here and there, but at home, if I need a generic Linux server, Debian all day.

ichbinjasokreativ, in Need to switch to Hanna Montana Linux now

Telling people about in-house programs in this manner is fine imo. If it was third party stuff I’d leave Ubuntu, but as it stands it’s still a great distro.

eskimofry,

“You’re right Mr. CMO! The frogs are warming up!”

Lemjukes, in Need to switch to Hanna Montana Linux now

First the deliberate there/their BS on the other post, and now literally ? Yeah you’re definitely a real user with no other motivations whatsoever. Fuck off shill

Rolive, in Linux mint = best beginner distro

So Mint is Ubuntu based right? If Ubuntu screws up even more doesn’t that affect Mint as well?

Mint removes everything that makes Ubuntu bad and they have a version with the same features but Debian based and because Ubuntu is pushing snaps so much they have been thinking of making LMDE (Linux Mint Debian edition) the new default

Rolive,

That would convince me to move, probably. Arch isn’t bad but it’s too much hassle to set it up and even then I might have left security gaps open.

ExplodeyWolf,

Endeavour is fun 😉

John,

Since there is ‘archinstall’ setting up arch is really straight forward. Just Boot from stick, type archinstall and fill up all points, done.

Rolive,

Yeah true. I went through the arch process to learn about Linux though so it was worth it in the end but I still have no clue about selinux, apparmor etc that are shipped by default in other distros. Also the need for firewalls/antivirus which isn’t really an issue in Linux but still.

I’m the only one who use joe?

Heavybell,
@Heavybell@lemmy.world avatar

No, but it might just be us…

Siegfried,

I thought this was a Joe mama joke

waldyrious,

Wow, it’s the first time I come across anyone who says they use joe. How does it differ from nano and micro?

Btw, I used to use dit several years ago, but swapped it for micro due to some keyboard shortcut issues (which are probably fixed now).

Ildar,
@Ildar@lemmy.world avatar

it’s actually hard to say that I use it, once in five years I need to edit file in terminal - and joe just traditional for me 🤷‍♂️

yamanii, in They’re in no position to complain
@yamanii@lemmy.world avatar

There was a time when the Freezer devs didn’t make a windows version of some updates, and their solution was to use it via WSL. So I never used it again.

atyaz,

It’s not their responsibility to make a proprietary shithole os easier to use

freijon, in Stability

And then there is Gentoo, where you can decide for each package if you want bleeding edge or stable

Lordbaum,

Same for NixOS

@lemmesay@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

on my office machine: I have Ubuntu(23.10) in its full glory. it is a good distro. I really enjoy gnome shell with Wayland.

on my home machine: I won’t let a single proprietary prpgram exist on my Debian. and the only wm would be i3(with xfce as a backup, and as a source of other common programs like terminal).

I’ve used mint in my university(default distro there), which I also enjoyed for its familiarity to users coming from proprietary operations systems.

my foray into GNU/Linux(from w*ndows) was thanks to Tails, which made me appreciate how different an OS can be(actually, my first computer had Ubuntu 4.10. the computer lasted for less than 2 years. hence I don’t count it).

and I’ve also helped many friends set-up distros like zorin and peppermint.

at the end of day, no matter the distro, it’s GNU/Linux. and that’s all that matters.

callyral, in Debian being insanely stable
@callyral@pawb.social avatar

i use void linux and apparently it is a stable rolling release

spookedbyroaches,

Yeah and I’m a small-headed Arch user
