Browsing /g/ completely confused me. At this point of time I don't know anymore which OS I should use.
You should use a GNU/Linux distribution that's free as in freedom and preferably endorsed by the Free Software Foundation, since all other systems include nonfree blobs and firmware. I recommend Trisquel GNU/Linux-libre for starters, but you may take a look at other GNU-approved systems here: https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.htmlAlternatively, if you don't like the choices there, then Gentoo GNU/Linux-libre with ACCEPT_LICENSE="@FREE -Artistic -NPSL-0.95" is fine too.
>>107645753Shut up, Richard.
just install mint retard
at least we can all agree anything but windows 11
Mint is mint
>>107645707None of them, go live among the trees, my brother. Be at peace
>>107645707you should try thinking for yourself
>>107645707The answer is very clear, you should use NIGGIX.
>>107645707Real /g/tards don't care. Power users use several different OSes daily.
>>107645753impractical for a starter, especially given that it's a gnu-first distro which usually means that not all hardware will work, the method here is slow, pragmatic, and steady, the objectively correct option is to start with *linux mint*, from there you start polishing your skills and if you will it distrohop.im going gnu-first (that is if i manage to do so) cause im gonna wage war on corporate surveillance, but doesn't mean you should speedrun all the way to max difficulty with me, my journey started from zorin, then i went to mint, used fedora, went to debian then currently use arch, now i'm thinking about which gnu-first distro should i choose, that is if i should even choose it at all without sacrificing too much (i.e. graphics drivers and most importantly this god damn realtek wifi driver)
>>107645753Debian without the non-free repos is fine too
Install Gentoo
>>107645707>I don't know anymore which OS I should useDon't let anyone tell you which OS you should use, Bernd. The answer is Linux, Distribution doesn't matter.
>>107646569That's a web server THOUGH
>>107645707When in doubt, make your own OS.
>>107646702>Bernd
>>107646702i second this entirely. distro doesnt matter. just use penguin os.
Any operating system is fine since normal people just use their browser anywaySteam probably works too
>>107646632Half of those steps are unnecessary. Just start with Fedora. Debian can be ignored unless you plan to stick to it. You don't need to spend months on Mint before you learn how to enable non-free or third party repos or codecs on Debian/Fedora, this is shit you'll do in the first 10 minutes after installing and never think about again. If you want a GUI for everything just use KDE, that's a desktop environment question not a distro related question.
>>107645707After 15 years of transitioning from Windows to Linux, then to FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and back to Linux, I recommend just buying a MacBook.
>>107645707artix, it has a GUI installer, it's based on arch, but you have to use the scary terminal for updating and installing packages
>>107645707Your confusion has nothing to do with /g/. It stems from your own insecurity of being a weak minded beta faggot. You literally ask a Hawaiian Pearl Diving forum to tell you what OS to use. Do you also ask your mom to take out your clothes to wear every morning?
>>107645707The Momoka OP has convinced me to use Windows because Momoka is my waifu.
>>107645707just install slackware
