To be honest… A lot of social media should actually be banned.

What are the advantages of Mint then compared to pop os? In what terms does it run circles around pop?

My biggest point is that it works out of the box and that it feels more premium compared to Ubuntu. It also auto updates nowadays and they build special mechanisms to preserve your battery if used on a laptop. Soon they will come out with their own desktop. They specifically focus on people who develop. Just sounds like a good option for OP. Compared to more difficult installations.

Why is no-one recommending pop-os? Works fine for me in all aspects. They even provide hardware, but that’s not needed, you can just use the OS.

thanks, I enjoyed reading that history. I usually use it when something hangs on the desktop as you said. :)

Ctrl Alt f1 f2 etc. Why do these desktops/cli exist. What was their intended purpose and what do people use them for today? Is it just legacy of does it stll serve a purpose?

I believe it’s just a gnome plugin. Look it up. :)

We don’t use robo but everything in VMware is really expensive and is getting price increases. We can also see this with our cloud provider. It seems like focussing on preventing a vendor lock in as good as you can obviously, can pay dividends in the long run.

Opinions are always biased.

It’s just the fact that the distros you rely on become more unstable. For the administrator/company it’s just a migration or actually pay up. I work quite a lot with Ansible. But the current moves of red hat makes me afraid that’s the next thing they will focus on to put behind a paywall.

Ah man, I was like this is not a very big deal but in a way I felt a little sad when it actually stopped working. They should rename the app to, reddit is not fun.

Forward it to Lemmy :)

I’ll check it out thanks, I have the version that is made with the unreal engine I believe Lol, looks really nice and the music is nice too.

Yeah perfect 60 fps out of the box. :)

Yes, I am playing Dredge right now. I am also playing papers please, which is obviously easier with mouse but it works good enough. I am also playing the first Ori game and Tetris sometimes. I played tails of iron too which is great fun.

I run all my games on pop os atm.

Yeah, I like it very much myself but because it’s always behind it never had the features I need in a home desktop environment. But I might try it again. Thanks for the input.

Allow rif or allow more customization for listview in app. I’m gonna stick around but only on desktop probably. That will be significantly less than my mobile usage.

I run pop os. But I can see myself moving to something non-ubuntu in the future. For server stuff I’m most familiar with Debian/RedHat.

Can you run steam and play games on Debian?
