It’s short for Terms of Service.

Are you talking about archinstall or have they actually automated the default installation method?

Do yourself a favour and install it on a virtual machine first. Screwing up an install on Arch is frighteningly easy. The Arch Wiki is your friend, use it. Also, read the installation instructions before you begin the installation, not during. If this sounds like too much of a headache (understandably so), then give EndeavourOS a whirl.

Yeah, it’s normal. There are so many flavours of Linux out there, why wouldn’t you want to try some of them?

The founder’s shady history with OpenFeint, their entire privacy policy and shit like this, take your pick. Wikipedia also has an entire section dedicated to Discord’s controversies. No matter how you look at it, Discord has a great many shortcomings.

lol, that is so unnecessary.

Hm, didn’t know about that. By the way, what is the word that is showing up as removed?

What’s wrong with Newpipe?

And mine. And probably everyone else’s since the only banking app I can find on F-Droid is something called Varengold.

What, no Microsoft Word?

Check out mister Mainstream over here. The rest of us snooty OS connoisseurs use Collapse OS.

I would say it depends on the user. Some might feel more at home with KDE, because the layout is similar to Windows. Some might be coming from macOS, so they would be more at home with Pantheon. Some might choose GNOME, because…

Anyway, the answer is none of the above, it’s terminal only. Get good or get out. Using graphics is for quitters.

Switched around the time Windows 7 was out. The reason is Windows Update. It took FOREVER to do its thing. And it was janky as all hell. I distinctly remember clicking on the “check for updates” more than once, because it didn’t find any updates the first time dor whatevee reason. Anyway, I had one update breakage too many and I snapped. Had Linux as my main OS since then and a few years later it became my only OS.

Basically, I wanted an OS that stayed out of my face and Windows wasn’t it.

How did they get strawberry? It looks more like a plastic cup to me.

Words to live by.

To my fellow Linux users: it’s okay to use a GUI. Really.

As a contrbuting member of Society of Linux Users on Terminals I am aghast, AGHAST at the very proposition of using *shudder* graphics on your Linux system. I mean, the very idea! If you can’t browse the web in console mode, then why even bother using Linux? GUIs are for quitters.

True, his message doesn’t exactly radiate happiness, but I can assure you he felt SO much better after writing this. Tech support also doubles as everyone’s personal therapist, you see.

Andrew is ignorant. He could learn the basics of computer literacy, which would answer all his questions, but I’ll take a shot in the dark and say that Andrew doesn’t want to do that and is perfectly happy being ignorant. And also angry.

I don’t know, we’ll just have to see. But personally, I am not a fan of tying so many functionalities to systemd.

Ah. I… honestly hadn’t noticed. Apologies, OP. Removing previous comment.
