Is it, though?
It's not like reinstalling Windows wasn't the best way to make it usable after couple of years.
And sure, HDR is the issue with SMASHING Windows? I always laugh at people who say 'Linux is not ready for 99% of users' then point out a feature only 1% uses.
I have not tried Bazzite, so maybe it's a lot better than Fedora, maybe even Fedora changed, as I dropped it over a decade ago.
I mean, it's not?
Demos of marginal improvements pale in comparison of the real missing pieces.
I'll keep saying it: we need new designes of models, not billions of investment into the current ones.
Just honeypot him. You don't need money.
Fedora used to fuck up my work laptop after every upgrade, so I migrated to Ubuntu (14), then later to Mint.
I would suggest anyone to have any Fedora-based distro specially with nvidia hw as a second option after Mint.
Really?
I never tried Arch, so I can't compare.
Apart from initramfs from install, which took more time, it felt like everything else just worked. Including installing Steam.
systemd anyone?
ducks for cover
Stage 1 and 2 are no longer available (I mean technically you could, but it's not suggested). Stage 3 was super easy, even with kernel from source.
It takes time, sure, but it can compile on background. I got 16 threads on my CPU, so leaving 12 for emerge, I can still use the PC.
I get that people joke about 'days of compiling', and maybe it's real for a huge mass of packages, but even if, it doesn't stop me from working.
Gentoo is easy and almost user-friendly.
Specially coming from Arch it should be a breeze.
Plan9 sounds like a more exclusive deal.
So what are the alternatives, when it happens to us?
Meshtastic? Or what?
You are putting too much logic into it.
Cruelty is the point.
They did everything they could.
But those fuckers just laid eggs. And lions had ticks.
