I’ve been a Linux user for about a decade and a half, most of that time I’ve been using OpenSUSE, but recently I’ve been hopping again.
For my main machine, I needed a distro that natively runs and installs .deb packages at root for the program used for my language lessons (fcitx5 nor ibus played well with sandboxes) so I’ve landed on Kubuntu for that machine.
But I’m really intrigued by the setup of VanillaOS, apx seems like such a perfect solution in many ways to my needs, but I don’t have as much experience with immutable distros.
Lastly I’m fascinated with NixOS, and really want to get into it, but life is just so busy that I don’t have the energy to devote to learning it.
So, what about you folks?
I’ve been on manjaro for about 7 years and am reasonably happy with it. I’ve heard concerns from people about manjaro, so Ive looked for something else. I have nixos on one machine, but im not fully sold on it yet. Cachyos seems like the one ill end up going with, but since manjaro is an arch based rolling release, im not sure when ill actually get around to installing a new os. Maybe next time i get a laptop lol
Oh, what are some of the concerns with Manjaro?
Apparently pamac once ddos’d the aur (probably due to bad code), and they apparently have trouble keeping the ssl cert on the website up to date.
Nothing major, but still.
