Crazy how it ends distrohop for most people
It's the default version of Linux. Anything else is installed out of contrarianism.
>>106818385had to distrohop due to outdated GPU drivers lol
>>106818385And starts transitions
For me it's still Ubuntu
Does it? You can't even use a proper web browser on it without breaking the Debian guidelines. And its version of yt-dlp is multiple years broken. Not suitable for desktop use at all with the way software is developed these days.
>>106818385what's with the debian shilling lately. is it you with all the debianposting? i love debian on my mini pc servers but i haven't run it on my desktop or laptop since debian 9 and for good measure, shit gets too outdated for desktop use unless you like flatpaks or distroboxes or whatever the fuck. sure debian 13 is semi-fresh right now but give it a few months and it'll be stale as all fuck
>>106818443it was an interesting watch. watching him fart and do all that XD
>>106818385I have utmost respect for Debian, however Linux Mint provides everything I want out of the box without the need to install additional resources.
>>106818450just use debian sid. it just werks and is rolling release
>>106818540>rolling releaseno, it isn't. it frequently has weird broken git snapshot versions of packages in the repos just like Fedora testing, and several softwares are still easily a year out of date. Neither release nor rolling.
>>106818540just werks my ass. unless you have the barest, emptiest install, sid breaks more often in a month than arch does in a decade. that's why siduction is a thing, they make snapshots of sid at known good working moments because rawdogging sid is like gambling with your kidneys on the line
>>106818540even if it was RR, which it ins't, what the hell would be the advantage of debian sid over something like arch
>>106818560>>106818569did you use it once? I use sid for a year
>>106818580yes, i am a 10y debian user on server and for a shorter time on desktop. started with jessie when they started shipping it with systemd. my worst times were with sid/unstable. i tried siduction for a while and it was ok but raw sid, no way.
Between siduction, PikaOs, Aptosid etc which one is the best?
>>106818642aptosid is dead. siduction is alive but userbase is mostly in germany. pikaos is a new kid on the block and hasn't gained my trust yet. since you mentioned it, i assume you want something for gaymz. just go with one of the popular choices if so, don't dig too deep
>use apt-get to install something>ok I don't need it anymore, apt-get remove thing>prompts me to remove 200 packagesWhat the fuck
>>106818385true
Crazy how fucking nightmarish you can make the packaging of software for Debian.
>>106818450Strong opinion for someone who doesn't know how to install yt-dlp.
>>106818443not for long, 25.10 will break everything
>>106818453>sure debian 13 is semi-fresh right now but give it a few months and it'll be stale as all fuckThere's a new version coming out every 2 years so at most it's going to be 2 years old. Also you don't have to wait until the next one is released, you can just point the sources to that version. So let's say Debian 13 is now new enough to be used but after a year it's getting too old, you can start using Debian 14 in advance and just watch it getting more and more stable as the time goes on. If you use the Toy Story names instead of words like "stable" and "testing" it's going to stay on that specific version after testing becomes stable. Or you can just stay on testing the whole time if the stable version is never enough for you.>unless you like flatpaks or distroboxes or whatever the fuckThere's also Debian backports which pulls a certain package from Sid instead of upgrading the whole OS to Sid.
>>106818385yeah, i've tried them all, and they're great (i loved slitaz), but my default has been debian for a long while now.it jest werks
>>106818868All the software I develop for Debian (or any other linux version) is packaged with Docker, and it just works.
>>106818443Moved to Mint because I don't like how many apps install as snaps by default.
>>106818999Why?
>>106818937All operating systems, even iOS if you know what you're doing, let you run random binaries downloaded from the internet. That has literally nothing to do with what I said about Debian's repos.
>>106818642>>106818681PikaOS doesn't directly use sid, they recompile packages with v3 instructions like CachyOS does. So it's an extra step removed. Not really trustworthy from my perspective.
>>106818764This happened to me too on several occasions, any solutions?
>>106820081Are you using kde plasma? It could be because of their dependency hell.
>>106820081>any solutions?Don't use debian ;)
>>106820026it's a meme project from nerds that wanted to become as popular as Cachy that'll be dead within the next couple of years.
>>106820081Don't remove packages. Which also means don't install unnecessary packages.
>>106820332is there any actually good linux distro or is it all garbage
I tried it once then went back to Arch.
>>106820491>is there any actually good linux distro or is it all garbageWell...
>>106818385I moved from Debian to Arch Linux. Before that I was using Gentoo and I only installed Debian because I was bored of compiling everything, but then I got bored of old packages. Arch solved everything. Today I would only move to NixOS.
>>106818416This
I'm still fine with Zorin OS pro. I'm not a free loading faggot like you.
>>106819605>he doesn't know
>>106818385I've installed Debian on my laptop. It's a decent distro but it's not replacing Arch on my main PC for me but I'll keep it on my laptop for now
>>106818385>most packages have no maintainers and are full of exploitable CVEsyeah, I'll stick to alma linux, tyvm
>>106818385Most trannified distro ever.
>>106820706It's not NixOS?
>>106818385debian is a meme distro only used as a base for other, actually usable distros
>>106818385because it crashes so bad people just go back to Windows/MacOS
>>106818385damn fucking right OP
>>106820856literally tried to stress test on purpose and crash my installation via kernel upgrades and it STILL didnt crash.WINDOWS BTFODISTROHOPPERS BTFO
>>106819605rust coreutils
>>106820768No, NixOs has constant drama that means there are 2 sides fighting but Debian is fully unified in mental illness.
>>106818560Retard. My 10 year old Debian install has worked and still works. Never any problems updooting.
>>106821204congratsnow don't @me anymore
>>106821158>sees debian thread while browsing 4chan on windows 11 gaming laptop>rushes to closet to pull out 100 dollar laptop he never uses that he put linux on for fun>starts it up and takes screenshot>posts it on the debian thread in 2 minutes>mashes refresh on browser waiting for someone to give him props for using linux
>>106821426eternally btfo'd lol
>Adobe software (Flash CS6, Fireworks and Premier to be exact)>LDplayer>Mihomo games (Genshin and both honkers games)>Blue Archive>Can make the DE look like WIN 95/XP/VistaIf it can support/do atleast 3 of these then i'll consider.
>>106821556So true!
>>106818764>>106820081There's minimal install and full install that comes with default programs. If you install the full install and remove a program that comes with it, it might depend on your desktop environment and ask to remove all of that as well since they were all automatically installed. You can set something else to be flagged as manually installed so if that depends on your desktop environment as well, it won't ask to remove your DE since another program depends on it. An easy way to set a program to be manually installed is to just apt install it again. It doesn't install anything since it's already installed but it flags that package as manually installed for the future. The manually installed package can also be the DE itself. If you still have the same problem you should report it.
>>106820706>Most trannified distro ever.that would be arch
Pozzed distro
It's fun to watch you fighting from above
>>106821667can't tell if this is bait but the last three take literally no effort to do. those games run on proton and there are themes out there for what you want.
>>106818385Jeremy C Bicha approved distro
>>106818417move to testing or sid
>>106818417This
>>106818417just install the proprietary one and problem solved
>>106818580You're unWhite
>>106820363The name of the project is gaaaaaaayyy
>>106823276Last time i checked, most chink games weren't supported because of their kernel anti-cheat.
>>106818848>+2000 packagesHow the fuck do you live with these nigger, you can have around 600~800 on Void and Gentoo to browse, type and even play on steam. What the fuck does Debian 13 accomplishes 2000 fucking packages?
>>106823737 pacman -Qq | wc -l2750
pacman -Qq | wc -l2750
>>106821303debian has drama every year. last year it was the kde plasma maintainer rage quitting and people were worried that there may not be a plasma 6.whatever package in trixie. hell sometimes after like 2-4 faggots quit the project other faggots on the internet are like "guess thats the end for debian". theyve dont this since the systemd drama back in 2014nixos drama is pretty tame by comparison
>>106818385>search results polluted by ubuntu bullshit (this is a big problem)>arch wiki is better>aur is usefulThat's why I use arch for my desktop rather than debian unstable. I would still consider debian stable for other purposes though.
>>106823574More unstable and way less reliable than Arch.
>>106823659Mihoyo's stuff has been running on proton for the last year at least, probably because of the Steam Deck. Blue Archive runs with no issues since it launched.
>>106820491Arch
>>106818385If you're into tranny distros why not jump straight into nixos
>>106818385I was actually going to try switching to Guix this weekend.>>106818450>You can't even use a proper web browser on it without breaking the Debian guidelinesWhat? I have both Firefox ESR and Chromium from standard repositories, the Iceweasel days are long gone.
>>106823737That's just 1 rust or go package, Void, etc. probably don't package them like retards.
>>106818417You likely had the "DX11 feature level 10.0 is required to run the engine" while trying to run a game. Debian 12 has old ass drivers on bookworm. Debian 13 is actually quite up to date. It has all the latest kernel and mesa drivers.But most people install linux mint because it has the almost latest graphics drivers, 6.14 kernel and good nvidia support. I use linux mint XFCE and have for years.
>>106818385either arch or debian cures distro hopping for 99% of people.some are tired of not having the most recent gpu drivers, others are tired of not having a stable environment to work with.i would have moved to debian if they shipped the recent KDE cuz i need certain workspace features in the new version.main gripe with debian is that i need to add several repos to get sane software.while on arch i only need to use AUR and get my crypto stolen once in a while.
