Zen, absolutely love the workflow and the fact that it is not chromium based.

Waiting excitedly for ladybird, it is already very impressive but still years left until it is daily drive able

The reason I mentioned i3 and hyprland was specifically to give an XOrg and Wayland alternative. Personally I think hyprland is a way better system than sway

If infinite customization is what you’re after you shouldn’t use a DE. A WM like i3 och hyprland is much better suited for that

Hyprland too

EndeavorOS is arch with an easy installer and some default apps.

Manjaro is a worse, split repo that doesn’t work at all together with the architecture they are building around. They actively encourage use of AUR packages whilst their own repo packages are sometimes out of date and create issues with AUR packages since they don’t delay updates from there.

There are also tonnes of other issues with Manjaro, overall, don’t use it.

Defaults hehe

I use arch btw

I think gnome used to be fantastic but sadly lost their edge over time. I love plasma but it is still a bit too unstable for my liking.

Personally use Hyprland nowadays and I think I’ll never go back to using a DE anyways

I got portuex, never used Slackware but seems serviceable, I’m just scared of nVidia driver setup haha

I know you can basically turn arch into catchy, but I see no reason to when there is a pre made distro.

As for Nix, I think it looks very interesting but I very much love arch for my desktop and am not really looking for a replacement at the moment, but it is number one on my list for the future if things change

Cachyos.

Used to use pure arch but I like the cachy optimisations and their repos

Well if you don’t want plain arch I’d go with cachyos or just endeavouros

Arch (cachyos) on my desktop, Debian on my server.

Doesn’t really get any better than those two in my opinion

I dont use a DE, I use a WM.

Semantics aside I’m on Hyprland, been using it for 6 months now and absolutely love it

I mean if if works it works, just be ready for eventual manjaro jank

I’d recommend switching off Manjaro to pure arch or something like endeavour or cachyos, manjaro is not really considered the most stable arch distro

Mate have you interacted with many Russians since the war broke out? I happen to spend every day surrounded by quite a few, all but one think they are justified in the war.

Now there are of course tonnes of people that don’t think that way, but they are sadly not the majority

While I agree with you and what I’m about to say is the result of decades of propaganda sadly a massive part of the Russian population fully support putin and believe the bullshit they get fed.

Like I said it makes sense and they are victims of the propaganda but it doesn’t change the fact

Support should be in quotation marks. Yes it has security support but applications will stop supporting all windows 10 SKUs long before that

Unless you play games with intrusive anti cheat pretty much everything works flawlessly on Linux.

I moved to arch permanently (been using Linux for other stuff and on my laptop for ages) after nvidia finally sorted their wayland support back in spring and I haven’t had a single game not work for me
