If you haven't already then you need to switch to Linux

    Don’t forget GrapheneOS and Jellyfin! Anything else you can think of? It’ll be a lot easier if they can convert everything in one go.

    I have seen a video on that. I am not a 40y/o discord mod lmao (/j)

    (no longer /j in this part) I'll try arch, and if I'm really that bored, I might try it, but it looks like something I don't want to get caught dead with for the next few years.

    It looks like silly fun, but as they say on their own page, they don't recommend it as a daily driver, specifically because it was designed with humor in mind, not maintainability.

    Could be worth spinning up in a VM or giving away on an old laptop, though...

    I'm currently running KDE Linux and I must admit I like it ! The immutable system feels weird but kinda safe. But the lack of Midnight Commander is a shame ! And I guess the not working transparency in yakuake is due to it being coded for X11.

    I thought KDE was a DE, not a distro? (I'm definitely wrong and offending someone, aren't I?)

    Working on it lol.

    Dad doesn't want to switch to linux, because "his files" or something (libreoffice and ddg??? he uses ddg on some devices already and libreoffice is like free ms365) so if I get Frankenstein the Floor Computer running, yes, I will linux (I plan on dual booting mint/arch, but not being toxic about it)
