Hey, Gerome.

dukk,

Some websites allow “strictly necessary cookies”…those work on some websites.

dukk,

Inception?

dukk,

Hey, me too! Only really use them for the occasional hobby project, just went with what my dad went with.

dukk,

IDK, I exit vim and promptly fall asleep.

dukk,

I personally use them pretty often. They’re not natural to me, I spend a little bit thinking about them, but they’re still decently useful.

dukk,

Doesn’t work in nushell, function syntax is different.

Probably still possible, just written differently.

dukk,

Used Wayland, tried Hyprland. Was cool, somewhat buggy.

Switched to XMonad. No more issues.

Wayland is probably the future, but I just want something that works now.

dukk, (edited )

Lemmy natively doesn’t support Reddit-style spoilers. It may be a feature in some apps, but consider using the native Lemmy ::: spoiler tag.

(Doesn’t make much of a difference here, just letting you know for the future.)

dukk,

I guess he’s interpreting it as “oneth”, in which are “You” would be the first element.

I like that, so I’ll believe it.

dukk,

Second this. System76 themselves sell multiple machines with Nvidia cards, so they have at least some incentive to make it work.

I see Fedora recommended quite a bit, but setting it up on my younger family member’s laptop was bot exactly simple, and setting up his game library proved near impossible.

PopOS just worked. I try not to be too pushy about Linux, but as someone who was pushed into (and now loves) using Linux, I’d suggest giving it one more shot. (I still dual-boot: keep a small Windows partition for the occasional need).

dukk,

I don’t tend to recommend Ubuntu anymore: mainly because of snaps.

I had a weird start with Linux, using it on my Pi and then eventually just installing NixOS as my first distro. A weird first choice, but honestly it makes even advanced tasks trivial(I can switch my WM/DE in one line!)

dukk,

I think OP(original commenter?) mentioned they tried Nobara, but it wouldn’t even boot.

My consistent recommendation to Linux newcomers is PopOS, it’s a simple, great distros that can be powerful when needed.

(I myself use Nix btw)

dukk,

Seems to be the same person too!

Watch out for the bleeding edge.

dukk,

Actually, they could probably collect a pretty substantial amount of data on you from just analyzing your garbage.
