I’ve messed around with Linux before, mostly in VMs, but I’m looking to switch over from Windows permanently on my laptop because I think Linux is cool.
Most people in this community talk about pros and cons of this distro or this other distro, but I’d like to hear your opinions based on entirely subjective factors.
I think Arch is neat, I think Ubuntu isn’t as neat, why? Who knows. Tell me about how you chose a specific distro because you thought the name was cool or because it ships with some completely unknown utility no one uses.
I find it really fun to browse the Debian repository and its source code with their dedicated websites for doing so ( https://packages.debian.org/ and https://sources.debian.org/ ), to find all the obscure utilities, and silly code comments.
I like it too. And Debian has its own screenshots website, https://screenshots.debian.net/ how neat is that ?
Wanna share some of those? :)
I unfortunately haven’t found that many I can remember. But a comment on Busybox cat that linked to a talk titled “cat -v considered harmful” did send me down a rabbit hole once.
