Since Minecraft blew up with 12 year olds using potatoe hardware I think the criteria required would be:

1. 12 year old thinks name is great and can spell it

2. it can run on a potatoe

Who wants to volunteer to collect this data

Fuck the supply chain that purposely cock blocks The Linux Phone & innovation too.

This was my first thought as well. Then just hope you are a tru goodboi and the establishment doesn't stop taking kindly to you.

its funnier when you just don't buy or play Denuvo games out of principal and let them fail for the lulz.

Breaking News: Luanti has just been forked and is now Yudaddy

The question must be asked who is yudaddy and what does he do.

Add in manual btrfs snapshots prior to usage too, having a "undo" on thousands of photo alternations is optimal if the script eats your photos.

is there a website with all the redhat box art of that time.

I remember having this box or another similar.

The .1 is very memorable.

Sometimes it's nice to put the ADHD away and just have simple fucking interfaces without all the stupid distractions.

This was my exact experience browsing the Social Media on gemini:// -- it was glorious how less can actually be more.

I hope they FAFO the wrong McAfee type

Google did it too for a decade

Flush that turd.

Money Talks, Bullshit Walks.

Typically the user group is identical to the username but not always. For example a name containing uppercase letters may be transformed to be all lowercase for the user but contain both cases in the group.

Thus you should get the user group in scripting separate from $USER

Ubuntu is a fine "nice to meet you" distro -- the criticisms I've gathered happen a few months in. Nvidia+Xorg updates dropping GUI to TUI, MDADM shitting the bed and dropping RAID, the awkward 6 month upgrades where you go from old weird issues in apps to new weird issues -- thou snap and flatpak improve this a lot over stock.

Canonical NIH, Canonical CLA agreement, history of charging forward only to abandon in house tech over and again after users get comfy.

Then there are inner politics and the occasional hankyness inside, or discourteousness like when they shit the bed dropping lib32 without talking to partnrrs like Valve on how this would effect their business after they made Ubuntu their target.

Criticisms typically are based in something. I had started using Ubuntu since 2004 IIRC and its been an interesting ride.

Oh also, PPA's, avoid those, they're not stock and don't be surprised if your OS doesn't boot with the less than stellar ones not staying in sync with the latest kernel updates.

YMMV and this is by no means advice on your personal fit.

Personally I am not fond of most casual user low barrier distros but I still recommend them. Manjaro, PopOS, LinuxMint, Endless, are all fine options depending on what kind of user.

I recently recommended one to a GameDev and considering SteamOS is Arch he decided on Manjaro over Debian.

YMMV, and its important to listen first to people to see what they want their machine to do.

One last criticism of Canonical and Ubuntu. Their HQ is UK based and I honestly wonder how the culture effects development. Germany, UK, California all have different "feels", its hard to be more specific.

Choice is good, always keep your data backed up and the @home on a different partition. The differences across distros are largely not a big deal like they used to be. People find solus in being captain of their Linux adventure and even Ubuntu will do just fine at the basics, just know if you hit a snag it may not be like that on every distro.

I'm pretty sure my Arches with PipeWire audio don't have it if that's of any use to you.

I have used PulseAudio and PipeWire for years and the last few years have preffered the latter when installing all the optional dependencies.

Then again if it ain't broke 🤷‍♂️

I thought signing up for Signal required a phone number and phone app -- and all phones have IMEI besides many other nightmare anti-features.

For the normies it's fine but tbh I'm not sure it's as advertised.

What ever happened to that odd old app called tox?

Honestly I could see a version of DeltaChat + GPG make some gains in popularity but I would argue the email relay servers and spam lists are rigged for max surveillance.

Are we at the point where tech from 20 years ago may be the way lmao.

XMPP, IRC, ICQ /s

Matrix is probably the best bet but some of their apps and clients seem like dogshit. And I am saying that as someone who uses them daily. And the whole "server" thing is a PITA, or it used to be at least.

I guess we'll just have to use carrier pidgin and cypherto encrypt the cat gifs /s
