You are already getting spammed into oblivion I see, but really choosing Manjaro instead of EndeavourOS, ARCO or Garuda is a bad decision nowadays. Although I would not really recommend the last two, as I didn't use ARCO and Garuda is a pain in the as in terms of you not knowing, wtf did your distro do with the base arch system. In Garuda my terminal/VSCode fonts broke once and I couldn't even remotely understand wtf was going on. Nobody on the forums even understood, how the hell did it happen, so I migrated to Endeavour. And to be perfectly honest, if you can use Fedora, Endeavour is easy for you to use. A lot of the stuff you need and nothing you don't out of the box. The Arch base actually never broke on me. I once accidentally uninstalled SDDM, but that was definitely a me problem. I managed to do the same on Fedora afterwards. Therefore, if you ever want an Arch experience without putting the whole car together at the start, Endeavour is a very solid choice. Still not a beginners distro though, as it is a bit terminal oriented.

Garuda, you'll just be patronized and never offered any assiatance.

@@lpnp9477 wait I typed an essay did I not post it 😭 I had 2 points: 1. Compilation for v3 and v4 architecture which makes it measurably faster and 2. QoL. The "cachyos hello" app has a bunch of tweaks and fixes for common issues, they include some AUR packages in the repo, they have a tool for ranking mirrors and actually applying the changes automatically, they have meta packages for stuff like gaming so you don't have to install all the libraries and tools manually. I don't think the difference is very noticeable when you just play in a VM for half an hour but when you use it for a long time the experience is just better. Also you can just add their repos to your existing arch install without losing too much, but imho a clean install is better. Also if you use zsh they have oh-my-zsh built in and preconfigured. I'd say it has the benefits of arch without many of the drawbacks of arch for normal users (not everything has to be configured and ran by hand, but no one is stopping you, if you want to). In the end, it's still lightweight as pretty much nothing is preinstalled, has a better repo and it's still arch so you can delete anything you don't want to (which is like 2-3 apps if you choose not to use them). I wouldn't say migrating from endeavour (or however it's spelled...) makes much sense but if you're installing an OS on a new machine/reinstalling the OS, you might like cachy. But adding the repos anyway never hurts lol. Just make sure to install the cachyos-rate-mirrors because like the only drawback of cachy is that sometimes independent mirrors get out of sync which breaks updates 😐. There's a fix for that in the "cachyos hello" but if you don't know about it you'd have to search for it. Oh yeah, there are also multiple kernels available and you can also choose them in the "cachyos hello" for ease of use (or when installing of course)

And their update software accidentally caused a ddos cause of a design oversight. Which they fixed, and people won't forgive them cause how dare they not have perfect software from day 1. Manjaro on avg out lasts basically every other arch based distro when it comes to not randomly breaking from updates. It still breaks, but every arch distro breaks at some point and fucking it's not even always the distros fault. A lot of dipshits have recently taken to blaming Manjaro for breaking cause of kde and Wayland issues and incompatibility with unofficial software they installed. People also love to blame Manjaro for breaking when it's some aur packages fault as well. If you want the most normie friendly arch distro then Manjaro is your best option. If you want a power user option then endeavour. If you like cock and ball torture then just go to gento and skip over arch entirely.

One question about red hat linux (from a beginner), how can something be commercial/paid but open-source? When your software is distributed and modified by other people is there still some sort of a pay wall when accessing them? How is it done?

@Sirfreelancealot

2 ай бұрын

There are many ways you can do that. For example supabase (a database provider) lets you host supabase yourself on your own server but with a few features missing. RedHat developed distributions of linux and gave them for free but if you wanted support (which if you were a massive corp, was a must) you'd pay them X amount. Currently RHEL (as far as I'm aware) is not available for free use and technically is not open source, but is based on other open source technologies and pulls features from Fedora which is open source.

@coolcool5181

2 ай бұрын

As a side note, "open source" afaik does not mean the source code has to be open for everybody, just the actual users of the software upon request. If you don't pay for RedHat, you are not technically entitled to the source code. This still didn't stop clone distros like Rocky Linux from appearing, but that's a whole other can of worms. Another common monetization model for open source projects is like Aseprite, where the source code is open to everyone, but you have to pay to access any precompiled binaries. You COULD just compile it yourself, but most people are not going to want or know how to.

IT support can only do so much. If something needs fixing, they cannot do it, while RedHat devs can literally fix the bug upstream (which many times they actively contribute to). Also there is bunch of certifications needed for companies and government, which doesn't come for free and also requires effort. These things are what "support" here means.

I find Alpine Linux is the most resource-efficient, if you want a computer that does only a few things. After the initial installation it took less than 100 MB of disk. I could install XFCE for basic desktop and FireFox, and the disk usage is still about just 1GB. For comparison, when I installed Arch with XFCE, it used about 5GB.

Almost wanted to say Clear Linux isn't that buggy, but they recently had a bug that deleted all user data after an update. The real issue is that it has very few of the optimized packages and thanks to the XZ backdoor incident they removed everything that depends on it, even smaller desktop environments. XZ itself is still there to support RPMs with a huge warning on the package.

I have made a Network folder at work, so everyone does not have to download their favorite distro from their website, but can just get it from the fileserver. :D It includes every single linux Distro I could find even obscure ones like Redstar OS. It took a lot of work and the downloading wouldve taken even longer if I didnt decide to use torrents which was in my experience often faster. I should make a list of the versions that are included so that if you know any more versions, i can add them. It is not only Linux it also has other operating systems like Haiku, Free BSD or even Windows. Even the Server versions of it. On that regard it is not fully done yet, I would love to add even more but I am currently not at work but at school. But once I return to work I make sure to add many more operating systems and linux distros. I tried some software that allows you to change network folder icons. But once the server restarted they are all broken now. So that didnt work sadly :( It took a really long time to make, really really long and I put a lot of effort in it. Sad it is gone. The isos are there and working tho, just the images gone.

Also I think AntiX deserves an honorary mention.
