I mean same applies to the Chinese,
but wanting to look good in an oppressive system, does not mean you actually like to be oppressed by said system.

I went with Manjaro due to the way they do their package releases.
Arch is bleeding edge,
a double edged sword if you ask me,
all the latest versions,
and all the bugs that come along with them.
I'm looking for stability in my daily driver though.
Manjaro keeps releases a few weeks back on their stable branch.
And tests the releases first on their unstable and testing branches.
Resulting in near bleeding edge with enhanced stability on the stable branch.
For me the experience has been:
- Stable
- Easy to use
- Enjoyed all the Arch niceness in the meantime.
Which imo makes it a good distro,
idiots would not make a good distro..
Sure the people behind it made some doubtful decisions in the past, but that doesn't change the fact that using it has been a bliss.
Additionally, it's all open source,
so if they would ever turn anti-consumer,
it can be forked into another distro.
As I mentioned earlier, stop the distro hate.
I'm not throwing acquisitions against other distros, instead I let people enjoy whatever flavor of Linux they desire...
By now I helped a fair amount of Arch and other distro users through Lemmy / AUR / Issues, and I also learned a fair amount of Arch / Manjaro and other distro users.
Linux is not the enemy here,
not a single flavor..
Why?
It has been my main distro for years now,
and I have only enjoyed the experience.
2 points you'll likely mention which do not make it a bad distro:
- The certificate of their website expired twice
- If you use AUR packages,
sometimes you need to wait with an update since they hold back official repo packages for a few weeks to ensure stability, which AUR packages might depend on.
Stop the distro hate,
it divides the Linux community...
Instead we should unify against M$/iFruit,
and let people use whatever distro they like.
Yes/no.
I lived without YouTube / a Google account for years.
But I still use YouTube through a privacy respecting frontend:
https://www.privacyguides.org/en/frontends/#youtube
I usually go for:
- On desktop: Invidious or Piped
- On Android: Tubular or NewPipe
- Communication: Matrix
- Browsing: I2P
- Communities: ActivityPub / Mastodon
- Software Forge: Fogejo + ForgeFed
- OS: Linux
- Money: Monero
Since they meet at least one of,
if not all of the following:
- Decentralized / Federated
- Sensorship resistant
- Privacy respecting
- Open source
Dear politicians,
stop assaulting our rights,
and start fighting for our rights,
unless you'd like to be yeeted out of parliament.
With kind regards,
every aware citizen.
Waydroid is made for Wayland.
You can however run it on X-Server,
through a Wayland session window
(e.g. KWin_Wayland, Cage, Weston, ...):
https://docs.waydro.id/faq/setting-up-waydroid-only-sessions
I wrote a tool to help improve the user experience on X-Server,
however currently it only supports KDEs Kwin_Wayland:

Oh I see, thank you!
Will definitely play around with that tomorrow :)
High resolution neofetch image? 👀
If that's not a distro specific thing,
then please teach me how 😄

I'd guess.
This didn't happen to me,
likely since I use XBrowserSync:

I'm using Looking-Glass to share my mouse/keyboard/audio between host and client:

And USB-Libvirt-Hotplug to pass through USB devices to the KVM on the fly:

Hope these will prove useful to you :)
