Funny thing is that 99% of "distros" are worse than larps. I think Linux only has 5 real distros
debian, redhat, gentoo, arch, and softly nix

Also, perhaps alpine may become more relevant in the future as computers get more and more bloated. But unless there are only marginal CPU hardware improvements in the next 20 years, I wouldn't hold my breath.
It is a conundrum. Fedora is both desirable for its corporate backing, and suspect as well. A lot of the innovation in the loonix desktop goes on around Fedora, so why not just use Fedora one might say.

It took them 10 years to figure out that Python probably isn't the best choice for a package manager.
The best package manager for any operating system (Zypper) is already written in C++

zypper sucks ass though, it's slow as shit. plus you can't even use it all the time anyways because the repos are shit too so you gotta go hunt the web for binaries like a wintoddler and install through yast, or use flatpaks or snaps.

gentoo portage and arch pacman both blow it out of the water. in both the package manager itself and the repos. i've heard xbps from void is pretty good too but i've never tried it

You can download the snap and flatpak utilities. The packages themselves are not snap or flatpak but you can install those utilities if you choose. I don't see how that's abstract.
>that's literally every package manager, nothing special
yum, apt, pacman all have horrible commands with poor documentation and are too similar to each other.
You seriously haven't said anything substantive about suse yet. Vague ramblings about how you don't like the default repository.

yes that's what i said. the default repo is crap so you gotta cope by adding more, like snaps and flatpaks >yum, apt, pacman all have horrible commands with poor documentation and are too similar to each other.
never tried yum but apt and pacman are dead simple and the documentation is great. ever heard of the arch wiki? manpages? >You seriously haven't said anything substantive about suse yet

. i use tumbleweed btw, it works well but the package management is pretty much the worst thing about it. very far from being the best on linux.
You know it's quite strange that he never felt the need to endorse or even create his own distro. Must it not have been weird for him as a young man to see Red Hat grow to a highly profitable company all based around his own work?
If Linus endorsed a distro, I reckon 80% of users would hop to it within the first week. He'd clean up many commercial contracts too. Why hasn't he done this? He knows who all of the worthwhile linux contributors are, he can lure them to work on his enterprise. In fact he should do it tomorrow. Even if he were to forget how to program, his name alone is a good enough endorsement. Just get the guy a case of red bulls, lock him in a cabin and in two weeks he'll have something better than Ubuntu.
Why can't he get as pissed off with the Linux Desktop Experience as he did with Bitkeeper?
>brainwashed WEF agent
I will continue to use Debian GNU/ Linux

They glow in the dark
isnt fedora a testing ground for RHEL. so RHEL is Linux.
feds made arpanet and the internet today and hired everybody in big tech spots so not sure what your point is. you gonna say Tor isn't safe too

good thing i dont use this no name application.

You should really switch to a more proper distro like LARBS or Arch/Artix.

>needs a program just to record screen
you really don't though, you can just cat /dev/fb0 to a file
the screen keyboard pops up when you click on a text input
Hook line and sinker
hello sir please install LARBS

don't be silly, we all know every linux developers are using MacOS
Good, now see at the one and only person who will destroy everything that good man has built
Linus built for linux, but what is she built for?
Mental Outlaw's thicc BBC

Isn't he using Asashi Linux on ARM Mac nowadays?
nope, he uses Fedora on M2 Macbook, he uses custom built kernel of course
>he uses custom built kernel of course
Wow a custom kernel? Pretty impressive for a boomer.
I'm gonna continue to use debian if you are going to shill fedora you c**t nugget
it's like linux users don't even remember why we needed linux in the first place. Makes me sick seeing linux people shill corporate shit
quit using linux then
>cuck is using fedora
It is settled fedora is the cuck distro

Try becoming a human being instead of a disposable robot that needs programming. Aww, that's too hard for you for your lower ape kingdom pea brain.

Minimal install Fedora + mouse is comfy.
I only wish didn't wasn't written using Python.
didn't = dnf
Next version is C++. Search dnf5 if you’d like to see.

more like creator of linux continues distro hopping because all distros are complete garbage and none of them ever suit his needs.

Why can't he get as pissed off with the Linux Desktop Experience as he did with Bitkeeper?
Because he knows what a clusterfrick it is to create an actual distro and he wants nothing to do with it. He's involved in enough drama as it is.
Don't care, still using Suse for desktop, FreeBSD for file server.
He also uses a new MacBook Pro w/ the Apple Silicon M2 chip
he is using an M2 Mac now with Asahi Linux.
