  • What would the ultimate Linux distro look like if we could take the best parts of all the distros that exist and shove them into one big package?

    Ah that reminds me of the problem which goes by
    "we got 15 distros none of them are perfect, lets make a perfect distro"
    Hours of brain sweat later
    "now we got 16 distros"
    I personally think there can't be imperfect distro, it's either meant for you or it isn't.

      I distro hop many times. After a few you know what you want. Still you search to find one that fit most of your category needs. I found mind and just tweak it to the fittings for your needs. And from there you're good to go. I finally stopped on MX and haven't wonder any place else.

      Define Stability. Most of us think of nuke-proof uncrashyness - which is wrong.
      What the Debian guys originally meant was to say everything stays as it is. No updates, no new kernels. Install and never touch again. Use for headless servers, firmware and such stuff. Result is stable in both meanings. But soooo fuxn boring, no?
      If I had a server to run, ya, gimme Deb.
      For my sexy daily runner I take Manjaro/EndeavourOS every time.

      I guess you could call me crazy. I game on Proxmox 8 with pretty good results and do all my other development work on a Void Linux VM on the Proxmox 8 host. I have a Kali VM on an internal network of vulnerable VM's for honing my cyber skills. I mean it all works but those damn Nvidia driver updates kill everything so I have my version pinned, but Nvidia on Linux on Optimus is only for masochists, BEWARE!!. Now to figure out how to get Wayland working. F-ING WAYLAND!!! Maybe KDE 6 will help?!?

    There is not such thing as a perfect distro .
    We all have or own way of doing things.
    That' s why Linux is perfect.
    We all can install our own perfect distro, or create one.
    and the best thing is that it is all Linux.....
    But fun to watch trying to come up with one distro that rules them all.

    Slackware with a faster installer and optional dependency resolution would be my go-to distro for this.
    Only reason I don't use slackware on my main rig is cause it seems to lack support for one of my devices. Or I'm just not pro enough, idk.
    Yeah, yeah, yeah I KNOW ABOUT VOID, but I don't like runit as much.

      apparently they're baked into the kernel just like intel's are, though you can also download updated ones either from AMD themself or your distro's repository as they're open source. however AMD also provides proprietary enterprise/workstation/"pro" drivers & software for ubuntu, red hat and suse, if you need whatever functionality they provide (or use a "pro" card)

    Hmmm...the "perfect distro" doesn't exist. "The perfect distro" is up to the individual...their preferences, their tastes, and their preferred software. Therefore, there is no perfect distro unless the individual builds their own system...only then, is it perfect...and even then...it's not perfect.

    Ya, I think it would be good if there was 1 Linux Standard distro instead of all these little splintered distros. Then have like Distro Desktop Theme option and also different size configurations (tiny (embedded), dekstop and server)). Would be interesting how large Linux is when you united, I sometimes wished the good old AmigaOS flourished more.
