Linux@programming.dev•After 9 Months on Mint I switched to Kubuntu and I'm loving it!!English
3·22 hours agoThanks solid advice.
I do care about why people don’t like cononical, but it’s a marathon not a sprint.
Every step in the right direction is a win.
I really want to find a nice distro that just works and that I can eventually switch friends and family onto.
It might not be the MOST ethical or best distro, but it’s better than Microsoft and to me that’s enough.

101·1 day agoThanks I’ll give them a try, EndeavoursOS is next on my list.
I know it’s dumb but I just really don’t like the name Fedora so I’ve strayed away so far 😅 Names matter

16·1 day agoI’ve heard this is quite a mess to maintain.
Ideally I want to find the best out of the box solution so that I can switch friends and family over to when I feel they and the software are ready

Linux@programming.dev•Steam Hardware AnnouncementEnglish
7·3 days agoSame and how well a game runs on the Steam Machine will likely be in all benchmarks and devs will optimise their games for Linux (Steam OS)
Ah I see, I hope some good alternatives pop up to compete.
With little competition dating apps just screw people over for max profit
Haven’t used it myself but my mate seems to thoroughly enjoy it.
Why does it suck?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are your preferred alternatives to Amazon?English

Linux@programming.dev•ZorinOS 18 has had 300K downloads in just one week!English
61·25 days agoa big issue for open-source is funding, I don’t see having a pro version as an issue when all you get for pro is basically a few more themes and tech support.
It’s still a giant leap in the right direction switching from Windows

Linux@programming.dev•Zorin OS Review – The BEST Linux Switch from WindowsEnglish
2·27 days agoIt’s GNOME with a lot of hand holding and guidance, which is what your average user is used to and wants. Most people here aren’t the target audience for Zorin as we probably already run Linux

Linux@programming.dev•Zorin OS Review – The BEST Linux Switch from WindowsEnglish
62·27 days agoThey seem to very much focus on a smooth UX for people trying Linux for the first time. It seems to be made idiot proof, so it won’t frustrate new users and would meet all the needs of the vast majority of users

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Why is Unraid popular in the self-hosting community ?English
9·28 days agoIs it much easier than TrueNAS?
I went with TrueNAS because it’s open-source, and it’s been smooth sailing.
(I just use it as a NAS, nothing more)
Is that AI though?
McDonalds has had self ordering for a long time and I love it.
