Yes, this is true.

Good luck to you.

And here’s a discussion about void from this community a few days ago:

I’ve never used Artix but I saw someone bought it up recently about their toxic community. Didn’t know about that, glad I do now.

Void Linux. For me, the moment you need to move away from systemd is when it’s time to switch to Void.

Should anyone care what a lying, youtube-drama scumbag thinks of Linux? I think no.

Then it would be in two places, both your downloads directory (I assume that’s where you ran it from originally) and the Applications folder where the AppManager has “installed” it.

If you want to backup a copy of it just go to the Applications folder and copy it from there.

I’ve never done those things but I still switch as quickly as I feel like

My main has been Linux desktop loading up steam big picture. But I don’t use streaming services, I serve everything up with jellyfin using the Kodi add-on. Used to be a htpc, now it’s steam deck.

In the lounge room we have an apple tv 4k which is where the kids can stream ABC Kids and the swiftfin client. We used to have a NVIDIA shield there but we moved to apple tv because goddamn the ads on Android tv make it one of the most horrible tv experiences possible.

The entire gnome DE as a dependency? I have no idea. What kind of software is doing that aside from the gnome desktop anyway?

Zorin has Play on Linux by default? Hasn’t that project been dead for 5 years? Why are they still shipping it out of the box?

“Accidentally” install Gnome?

It used to be called Serpent OS but Ikey thought the name was a bit silly/immature if I remember correctly

How about don’t implement it and when California realises they need computers then they might change their mind?

Non-free codecs out of the box

I think Linux mint Debian edition is cool if you want to use Cinnamon, but otherwise Debian makes sense.

A while ago I tried out cachyos since it was the big new thing. I can’t remember what the update was, but I recall Pac-Man threw up a warning to say “Manual intervention required etc etc etc” rather than updating.

I might be remembering it wrong.

That’s easy; because Ikey Doherty wanted to make one.

He abandoned Solus years ago as the project became something he didn’t enjoy anymore, and wanted to start a fresh project closer to his philosophy of engineering everything.

When a person starts a new project it’s usually because they want to.

So the key here is, in classic Ikey style, they want to use/develop all their own tools. engineer everything themselves to be exactly what they want it to be. This is what suits them and Ikey has the chops to do this better than most.

He started this project about 5 years back as Serpent OS, rebranded it last year as he got to alpha release stages.

I was putting it out there as a suggestion for inexperienced Linux users to manage their appimages. Writing a desktop file won’t update your appimages or handily install them in a consistent location.

I believe if we imagine a Venn diagram, users of this software would have some overlap with users who’d prefer or require a gui tool.

Years ago. I thought it had been abandoned but I see it started getting updates again last year.

No comment on the software because I have no use case for it, just wanted to note that GearLever can “install”, and integrate your appimages into your menu quick and easy, and in most cases keep them updated too.

Not every sense of the word -see Michael Jackson - Bad, George Thorogood - Bad To The Bone, Badass, and so on.
