I think using major distros like Fedora, Ubuntu, or Debian is fine, because corporate backing often supports faster security fixes and better infrastructure.

I love it. I used it alot in uni because it also allows for Latex.Pasting images is super simple too.

I would go with Arch and i3. Dont use archinstall. Do it the hard way and you will learn alot about linux.

I also prefer i3 with minimal visual changes. I hate gaps, the rounded corners and animations when opening/moving windows. Sure it might look pretty on a screenshot, but using it is worse than a simple i3 that gets out of the way and you don’t see it.

Haha nice! I hope you find the app useful

Just replace the potentiometer, they get rusty. I had the same problem restoring my grandmas old amp.

Does it make crackling noise while turning the volume potentiometer?

I use kdenlive and its great, but if you have low ram like me, make sure to save and reopen the project to clear up older clips from ram. I also reopen the project before rendering. Perhaps there is a better approach, but i have found this to work and prevent crashes.

Whole point of this “distro” is that it comes with bloat preinstalled?

A few exmples:

ChatGPT, Discord, Docker, Figma, GitHub, Google Contacts, Google Messages, Google Photos, HEY, Kdenlive, OBS Studio, Obsidian, Signal, Spotify, Typora, WhatsApp, X, YouTube, Zoom???

Wtf… Why
