I used evolution for a min, it wasnt bad… But, ive been using thunderbird for so long, i didnt stray for long.

I think you’re right. I think this is going to cause an increase on events like this for sure. Trumps base is going to want to send a message.

With AI absolutely exploding… It’s very easy to ask for step by step directions to accomplish things. AI clearly still needs to mature… But… The times I’ve asked it for some basic, step by step directions, it’s been effective.

While I don’t disagree videos make a lot of things easier (I for sure am a visual learning, no question), the step by step instructions for things I’ve gotten have been good, and very easy to follow.

This Pic makes me feel like. It!

Man… That’s fucked… But I sure as hell did just share this with some of my buddies. Haha

See… I’m the opposite… I change and hip around and reinstall across various machine so often, changing the setting has just become second nature… I don’t even think about it anymore! Hahahaha

My preferred daily has been opensuse tumble weed on my self built desktop and Lenovo laptops. I had been using Leap on a couple old MacBooks (one air, and one mbp). I tried nixos about 6 months ago and I’ve migrated several of my machines over to nix. Opensuse and nix are without question my top two.

Servers, I run Debian server, Ubuntu server, and rocky.

Lindows was my first Linux experience ever. I was in high school (so this was probably around 2002, as I graduated in 03). Being my first Linux experience I remember the KDE DE and thinking how cool it was the I could customize the clock in various ways (digital, analog, etc).

That started the journey. Dabbled and distro hopped for a few years, and went full linux in probably 07. I’ve never looked back.

Nvidia breaks on me at least twice a year using Tumbleweed. But… That’s my own fault, as I just update almost daily… And too many times I’ve done an update that breaks nvidia. I can’t speak to this issue with leap, as I’ve not run Leap on my machine with an nvidia card.

I’ve run both Opensuse Leap and Nixos with good luck. As someone else mentioned, it really just boils down to the wifi adapter being shit… But that aside, everyrhing else seemed to work well for me with leap and nix.

Copy. Paste. Enter.

I use Syncthing to do a similar thing. I jus have Syncthing pointed to nfs mount to my Nas. Any files synced to the folder via Syncthing just end up on my Nas.

+1 for Lenovo. My Gen5 x1 carbon is without question, the single best Linux on a laptop experience I’ve ever had. Running tumbleweed as my daily driver, fwiw.

“There is also opensuse Leap wich is a rolling release distribution.”

Leap is not a rolling release. Tumbleweed is the rolling release.

My Proxmox cluster has 10+ distros so I can distro hop my heart out. I like bouncing between various distro to stay fresh with package managers… And more specifically the various synax when using various distros

First installs for me are always vim and tmux.

You needed to read between the lines. People were clearly looking for piss drinking tips…not actual Italian restaurants.

Best is subjective. As someone who has been using Linux exclusively for over 12 years now, I really don’t like pop at all. I’ve tried it several time over the last couple years and just don’t enjoy it.

Preferred daily: Suse tumbleweed with plasma Secondary choice (and it’s a close second): NixOS (not beginner friendly!!) Beginner recommendation: Mint Cinnamon or Mate.

I’m currently running (and have been for well over a year), an x1 carbon 5th Gen. I daily it for work, running Opensuse tumbleweed.

It’s arguably the greatest laptop running Linux experience I’ve had. I have a 2015 MacBook pro running Opensuse Leap, which is also really good. But the keyboard is far better on the X1C.

Im bouncing between my desk and various buildings all day for work, so I never really stretch the batteries wings. It’s good for up to 3 hours (depending on work load) I feel like… But I’ve not really tested it. I always have the machine with me and could charge it up and put it through its paces this weekend if it would be of interest to you? Obviously this machine has been around awhile, and I’m not even certain of the battery’s health.

Edit: Just wanted to add, 10/10, would HIGHLY recommend!
