Never heard of it. What packaging system does Tribes use?

*Except for beginners

Try a beginner distro, and when you're done with the tutorial, go ahead and install your arches or nixes, IDC

Ooga Booga, caveman like Arch, caveman spread Arch!

Edit: i never read the other comments and someone already sorta used this joke... shit.

I’ve bounced around to plenty of distros, Fedora KDE is my current daily driver.

Fedora is the best because it fits my use case the best.

I thought you said healthy.

Why not just ReactOS atop FreeDOS?

Holy shit I lost it after Material UwU. The system requirements and FAQ (including a famous Torvalds quote) were excellent highlights as well.

Fucking Astolfo in there... this is just too good.

Thank you for this, you've made my day.

I didn't really like Gnome, but one day I might spin up a VM for this.

Oh, oups. That's a remnance from a meme I made a few minutes earlier. However now Tux is looking towards the text, therefore this was all planned.

See I just like LMDE. Everything works without fiddling (I want my OS to be boring). And if I feel spicy - backports.

Fuck yeah NixOS! I freaking love declarative config!

no one likes a smart guy. you can keep your dot files /s

This is my favorite comment on the thread.

XP was

Windows 7 Embedded.

React OS

Windows XP Black Edition (xD)

Windows Vista.

3.1

Windows 2000 was the best (and last good) version.

Windows 11 Enterprise IoT LTSC.

Colonel who?

It's the canonical choice

Linux is like dogs, they’re all good bois.

That's okay, chances are half the different distros people were talking up were Ubuntu.

Would Aurora be a better recommendation these days?

Yeah. "I use OpenSUSE tumbleweed, but have reasons I've been thinking about switching. I consistently hear that mint is a good place to start, or maybe pop!os if you're looking to run games"

I don't actually even say the first sentence unless the question was "what do you use?"

Sometimes, if it's clear they're trying to revive very old hardware I might help them search for something built around being lightweight.

I'm mostly happy with tumbleweed, except that I have the nvidia repo set up and am convinced that it's causing issues. One of these days I'll look into how to try the nouveau drivers and/or how to get from my current setup to dualbooting pop!os without disrupting things I need for work.

Also, an update straight up broke emacs while i was in crunch time once, but I learned to be more careful about my update timing.

If someone is new, show them DEs and recommend based on that

Can't complain about that one!
