I had quite an adventure with Linux: - Managed to nuke my system via ‘sudo rm -rf /*’ thinking it would only remove everything inside my current dir. - Managed to get trapped inside Vim multiple times. Had to restart the computer to break free, because I didn’t have internet to ask it what to do - Managed to nuke my system answering ‘yes’ to the question ‘Do as I say’…
Trapped inside vim I get, but you managed to install linux in a console setup without being told how to switch tty? That is what saved me a lot of reboots in my starting days. (Alt+Fn (or Ctrl+Alt+Fn if in X), use Alt+sidearrow to scroll through the ttys. X is usually on tty1 or tty7 depending on your setup) That "do as I say" used to be "yes, I understand that this might harm my system" (or something similar) - kinda miss that variant of the prompt, was clearer.
Using fedora minimal is so good that I probably will never switch my workspace to any other distro unless they f* up something really bad imagine getting debian like stability + arch like updates + good package manager + supports mostly everything that is available and can run well on server with no complications I assume well if you got confused : fedora workstation and fedora minimal is different thing it runs on my device with hyprland TWM on 500-700mb of ram and just uses 5gigs of storage with all setup ( it increases as you use system , install stuffs ofc but you got the point : its lightweight )
Since switching to Fedora 18 months ago, I've had the least amount of issues than on many other distros. Every time I've tried to use Linux Mint Cinnamon I always run into some issues. I want to like it but just can't
Contrary to what was said, NixOS is _not_ literally one big configuration file. It _can_ be one big configuration file, but if you've been using it for long enough, you've probably broken that configuration file into several smaller configuration files. (My NixOS is currently 7 configuration files, one of which does nothing but list every single Noto font.) As far as Nix is concerned though, there's no difference (so little difference that it literally won't have anything new to build).
I don't for now, but it's likely by end of summer. Which will mean that half my comments under other stuff will still consist of "I use arch btw" while I don't use arch. Or maybe I'll just remain on arch with home manager forever

I could install XFCE for basic desktop and FireFox, and the disk usage is still about just 1GB. For comparison, when I installed Arch with XFCE, it used about 5GB.

I have made a Network folder at work, so everyone does not have to download their favorite distro from their website, but can just get it from the fileserver. :D It includes every single linux Distro I could find even obscure ones like Redstar OS. It took a lot of work and the downloading wouldve taken even longer if I didnt decide to use torrents which was in my experience often faster. I should make a list of the versions that are included so that if you know any more versions, i can add them. It is not only Linux it also has other operating systems like Haiku, Free BSD or even Windows. Even the Server versions of it. On that regard it is not fully done yet, I would love to add even more but I am currently not at work but at school. But once I return to work I make sure to add many more operating systems and linux distros. I tried some software that allows you to change network folder icons. But once the server restarted they are all broken now. So that didnt work sadly :( It took a really long time to make, really really long and I put a lot of effort in it. Sad it is gone. The isos are there and working tho, just the images gone.

Used Fedora for a while and it does look pretty cool, but I found myself putting hours just to make it work and look like Pop out of the box. Also ran into issues while using snap (not my choice). Eventually got back to Pop. I’m more of a functional user, and Pop has provided the perfect balance for me. Still plan to venture with Arch/Manjaro, when I have more time to waste.
I used to use arch btw, then I chilled tf out and didn't feel like running pacman -Syu every 15 minutes and switched to Debian permenantly (until I inevitably find a reason to switch again)
Ive been using fedora and ubuntu for a few months and i just ordered a new laptop so i tried to check some other distros out to play around and see what was out there. The last one i triedwas manjaro. Im sticking with fedora.
I hopped from Mint over to Fedora thinking I'm ready for an advantaged distro. Not that I don't know how to uset Fedora, but hopping distros has been a pain in the *ss. Maybe i did it wrong, but I probably won't change distros just for how bad my experience has been.
I would say the exact opposite of what you say because Arch although it is like a lego set hives you all the instructions that you need to at least get started and in most cases the wiki goes even further.
Used to run Kubuntu and you couldn't pay me to leave KDE but then I discovered Pop_OS :chefskiss: It was one of the smoothest installs I've ever had. Quite an achievement with an Nvidia gpu lol
Puppy linux is an excellent distro for technical support or for a computer with low specs, you can carry it around in a usb, it can run in ram, even its file system, so you don´t need a hard drive, also you can format, cut or copy a hard drive, but its too limited so its a bad option for a desktop main os
While Pop_OS! is advertised as the forefront of gaming on Linux, the before mentioned distro, Linux Mint is a better choice. From my personal experience Ubuntu, besides the controversy is also a decent gaming distro, at least the last time I used it (1-2 years ago).
Thing about Manjaro is: be careful with the AUR. I've used for quite a few months only with flatpak and it was great. Then I started using AUR and things went downhill. That's why I began using normal arch in the desktop.
The AUR does that to literally every single arch distro eventually. That is in no way a Manjaro unique problem. The only way to not have the air break your system eventually is to just not use it. Otherwise you just have to be willing to fix something eventually. That's just the nature of arch.
As the saying goes, if you learn a distro, you learn THAT DISTRO. If you learn Slackware, you learn LINUX. I've never been quite good enough to run straight-up Slack, but I have used and like several Slack-based distros, especially on legacy hardware. I tend more towards Debian-based (but not *buntu; while useful for top-tier hw recognition, runs slower than other distros). After years of reliability with synaptic/*.deb I tried Manjaro (3 different releases) and regretted it. pacman under Manjaro is trash, and I'm dubious about Arch in general because of it. I now rotate between PCLinuxOS, Mageia (both Mandrake derivatives), and Linux Mint (current).
@@lpnp9477 i dont know If it is that Bad. NixOS has a crazy amount of stuff to learn, but Most of is Independent of Linux in General,so might Not be as Bad as it sounds

The pun, "...they aren't on our level." made me nearly piss myself. Subscribed.
I've been using Arch for about 6 months now and dunno why but I'm seriously considering switching to Fedora or PopOS since past couple weeks. This will probably offend a lot of people here
No I get it. You prefer a computer to work for your intended use case rather than spend hours going in circles and getting nowhere. I would definitely use pop if I weren't addicted to gimmick laptops
Tell me why I got an Apple Pay ad once this video ended
I have made a Network folder at work, so everyone does not have to download their favorite distro from their website, but can just get it from the fileserver. :D It includes every single linux Distro I could find even obscure ones like Redstar OS. It took a lot of work and the downloading wouldve taken even longer if I didnt decide to use torrents which was in my experience often faster. I should make a list of the versions that are included so that if you know any more versions, i can add them. It is not only Linux it also has other operating systems like Haiku, Free BSD or even Windows. Even the Server versions of it. On that regard it is not fully done yet, I would love to add even more but I am currently not at work but at school. But once I return to work I make sure to add many more operating systems and linux distros. I tried some software that allows you to change network folder icons. But once the server restarted they are all broken now. So that didnt work sadly :( It took a really long time to make, really really long and I put a lot of effort in it. Sad it is gone. The isos are there and working tho, just the images gone.
Ubuntu server user here. Just using it cause a few programs i want to run are only availiable for ubuntu and i dont have any issues with the os so far so it works. But can somebody tell me about the privacy concerns please? I have not really heard anything about it.
It isn't a real concern + they reversed the change. There is a comment somewhere here explaining the situation really well.
manjaro is kinda bad now. EndeavourOS is a better arch derivative.
why not just use arch btw

Linux Mint is the best for beginners. My favourite is probably Guix, but I actually just use Mint with the Guix package manager on top
Gentoo is like arch, but you smelt yor own ore
The whole video was to say that Apple users are eunuchs, amiright?
whaaat? Nooo, who told you that :P
Maybe you're a bit young to know this, but a lot of Mac users are cis women.
I mean it's accurate
At first I thought it was gonna be a joke about trans girls and UNIX based systems.
that lubuntu one was personal edit: the android one is even more personal than ubuntu
I'm already aiming to switch from Windows to Pop_OS, since that one seems to be the best all-around distro, especially for a beginner. Thankfully I'm not the most fond of AAA games or multiplayer games that use anticheat, so that isn't really an issue for me.
This right here is why W10 currently dominates the market, and it's not even close. In Linux everyone thinks they can create whatever they want and there is no unified thing other than the Kernel. Therefore, not many want to bother.
Sigma boomer mindset
By your logic, apple should dominate.

0:16 - communism is not about "make it free and take your property" - it is about "prohibit currency trading on stock exchanges" - and in general using currency as an equivalent with constant value, rather allow people to fluctuate it, all the rest is majourly irrelevant to communism topic
Yeah people mix up communism and socialism a lot
No it's about collective ownership of the means of production and distributing all goods in the society based on needs.
You did not make that elementary joke omg
Windows is great distro if you coming from the Linux Mint
😂 😂 😂
Best 20 second intro to any video I’ve every watched
Android is the worst Linux.
but there is no equivalent linux version yet. otherwise i would opt for running linux on my phone too
@@willi1978 yep
It's great if you enjoy spyware
Still better than Apple.
"I use Arch" is the only pickup line that works.
4:30 totally unnecessary and xenophobic comment. Even if you *think* that the CPC is not good, there's no reason to attack the chinese developers of Deepin. These types of comments are such a turn off on videos that were cool like this. Comments like this are so 2003-ish.
This is awesome! Can you make a similar video but it's Desktop environments
As someone that's daily driven Linux for 20 years, ha ha ha! This is bang on!
Used Fedora for a while and it does look pretty cool, but I found myself putting hours just to make it work and look like Pop out of the box. Also ran into issues while using snap (not my choice). Eventually got back to Pop. I’m more of a functional user, and Pop has provided the perfect balance for me. Still plan to venture with Arch/Manjaro, when I have more time to waste.
Kubuntu: babys first desktop Linux, but I liked how the steam deck desktop mode felt.
using arch cuz i love lego
and arch is literaly breaks only when you break it, minimal as fuck as do only what you want it to do
I used to use arch btw, then I chilled tf out and didn't feel like running pacman -Syu every 15 minutes and switched to Debian permenantly (until I inevitably find a reason to switch again)
Loved the Elementary joke. Danielle Foré shall rule us all
2:36 "Some are reliable"
**Shows yugo**
Sarted on manjaro but made the move to Arch. Life is good.
Does anyone actually use Zorin OS?
yes. me.
I use modified mint btw, with my custom package manager from terminal. Im about to use mageia as a server, also, with my package manager.
Happy Linux user here! I've been using it for over 15 years and never got a virus, or malware, or spyware.
Just recently switched from Windows to Bazzite, been a learning curve thus far. But, I don't regret my choice.
Ive been using fedora and ubuntu for a few months and i just ordered a new laptop so i tried to check some other distros out to play around and see what was out there. The last one i triedwas manjaro. Im sticking with fedora.
I hopped from Mint over to Fedora thinking I'm ready for an advantaged distro. Not that I don't know how to uset Fedora, but hopping distros has been a pain in the *ss. Maybe i did it wrong, but I probably won't change distros just for how bad my experience has been.
I would say the exact opposite of what you say because Arch although it is like a lego set hives you all the instructions that you need to at least get started and in most cases the wiki goes even further.
5:55 As someone watching this on a Samsung tablet, that was not expected...
Ha he didn’t talk shit about my Hannah Montana Linux. I win!
I discovered kubuntu after buying a steam deck, which I've heard also runs arch?
The little pauses get me
Used to run Kubuntu and you couldn't pay me to leave KDE but then I discovered Pop_OS :chefskiss:
It was one of the smoothest installs I've ever had. Quite an achievement with an Nvidia gpu lol
Puppy linux is an excellent distro for technical support or for a computer with low specs, you can carry it around in a usb, it can run in ram, even its file system, so you don´t need a hard drive, also you can format, cut or copy a hard drive, but its too limited so its a bad option for a desktop main os
Finally void linux is getting some love
You forgot rhel clones like almalinux, using alma right now
I've been on Linux for 4 years now, and I don't wanna migrate from Linux Mint.
how did you not touch on Oracle Linux, our savior of the RHEL horror??
Anarchy is like manjaro but you can scream i use arch btw louder
Bro, how sad it must be to use Apple devices, the pinnacle of ignorance. I use my own android rom and arch btw
Windows > Apple
While Pop_OS! is advertised as the forefront of gaming on Linux, the before mentioned distro, Linux Mint is a better choice. From my personal experience Ubuntu, besides the controversy is also a decent gaming distro, at least the last time I used it (1-2 years ago).
Actually, Arch is for people who are transitioning.
Где Astra Linux? Я пользуюсь ей каждый день.
Thing about Manjaro is: be careful with the AUR. I've used for quite a few months only with flatpak and it was great. Then I started using AUR and things went downhill. That's why I began using normal arch in the desktop.
The AUR does that to literally every single arch distro eventually. That is in no way a Manjaro unique problem.
The only way to not have the air break your system eventually is to just not use it.
Otherwise you just have to be willing to fix something eventually. That's just the nature of arch.
As the saying goes, if you learn a distro, you learn THAT DISTRO. If you learn Slackware, you learn LINUX. I've never been quite good enough to run straight-up Slack, but I have used and like several Slack-based distros, especially on legacy hardware. I tend more towards Debian-based (but not *buntu; while useful for top-tier hw recognition, runs slower than other distros). After years of reliability with synaptic/*.deb I tried Manjaro (3 different releases) and regretted it. pacman under Manjaro is trash, and I'm dubious about Arch in general because of it. I now rotate between PCLinuxOS, Mageia (both Mandrake derivatives), and Linux Mint (current).
5:27 Cool detail on the fractal.
Isn't Bazzite better than Pop_OS?
Lubuntu joke killed me, I run it on a 2000s laptop that’s from a grocery store that’s got a first gen i3
I love how all the top comments are some equivalent of "as somebody who uses Arch..."
i switched from windows to nixos (i need help)
There's a discourse and a Matrix Channel, mostly helpful people over there.
NixOS might be a quite difficult First time experience, though...
I wonder if this level of masochism extends to other parts of your life
@@lpnp9477 i dont know If it is that Bad. NixOS has a crazy amount of stuff to learn, but Most of is Independent of Linux in General,so might Not be as Bad as it sounds
Sailfish OS on my smartphone... which part of my body do I have to cut off?
