ITT: We post distros used by insecure people who want to use Arch but don't want to get made fun of for using Arch
>>107650456the irony
>>107650456i use both fedora and arch i dont get itwhy would i be made fun of for using either
>>107650456Post distros feared by the State of Israel
>>107650456fedora is the preferred distro by linus
>>107650456arch users are powerful
>>107650456I used to be the kind of geek who uses Arch, back when all distros allowed (and required) as much configuration as Arch. Now I use vanilla Ubuntu even though I hate Snap because I don't have to think about the OS at all.
>>107650686GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!! Buy a mac fag!
>>107650701>buyno
>>107650686This. I don't want to tinker with my OS anymore, I just want it to work (and be free, and not require company-specific hardware, and not have ads, etc.)
>>107650456why would we be insecure? fedora is a working and serious distro unlike arch (which is a toy). we get the peace of mind that comes from stability (tested software) and the last features that come with its updated repos.
>>107650774You sound like an insecure faggot
>>107650867answer the question, nigger.
>>107650883Because you project and use an OS for your ego>I'm le based because I use Fedora unlike those Arch redditors!That's the same mentality on the flipside of the coin as those Arch fanboys who blurt out "I use arch btw" constantly
>>107650774It's literally not stable, tested software, You are the beta tester. You're an unpaid beta tester for packages that may become part of RHEL later.
>>107650774How does Red Hat cock feel in your ass, faggot?
>>107650896
>>107650898>whats rawride>>107650906its quite the opposite, ALL distros suck Red Hat cock, specially arch.
>>107650943>>107650974>No you!I accept your concession
read OP again, projecting negro.
>>107650898as opposed to other software where you pay to beta test it except no one cares about your feedback
>>107650686SameI chose Ubuntu because it's the official target for docker, I could probably use something else but I can't be fucked finding out It just werks
>>107650456Reminder that the world's #1 supercomputer is based on Fedora GNU/Linux
>>107651165arent snaps a pain? or you can choose not to use?
>>107651193I just don't interact with them at all, maybe one day they'll be mandatory, I think in the base install includes Firefox in a snap, but it's just whatever, it still works as a web browser, and certainly works well enough to look up whatever is the recommended browser on the g wiki and then just install that normally
>>107651193Snaps aren't difficult, they're just a solution in search of a problem and a retarded waste of disk space. There aren't .deb packages in the official repo for some apps, including Firefox. You could add a PPA if you wanted to.
>>107651233how can ubuntu just werk if you can't even get firefox from an official repo? on fedora it comes preinstalled and you can remove it and get the flatpak or even the snap if you want
>>107651233>You could add a PPA if you wanted toive read somewhere that PPAs are also a pain and thats why debian dont use it kek (even tho you guys are close). so how does that work?>>107651242flats are just so fucking easy to manage, if its not in the repos i can always find it on flathub. maybe them can use it too.
>>107650571any cottonplantase
>>107650456I've lost enough time with Fedora already. I don't want to recompile the kernel, I have a job.
>>107650456Literally what Linus uses btw
>>107650665
>>107651242It's installed by default, but as a Snap.
>>107651417Arch is for twinks, Gentoo is the lardass neckbeard distro
>>107650896>I'm le based because I use Fedora unlike those Arch redditors!I say this.
>heh arch amirite>ok for that you need this "ppa" and if there are version incompatibilities try...>you will need to upgrade the os major version for that also>the sudo root access for that doesnt work because you see let me explain the permissions in uh "snap-apps"...>that's right they are like those "appimages" or "flat-paks" but mandatory and nobody wants to use them yeah kind of like mimicking android mobile apps...>oh yeah the fonts/theming is all fucked also because "snap"..>yes the download is 1.75 GB because you see the "snap-apps" include all of......>the boot is a little slower because mounting the partition of each "snap-app"..>listen man, i dont think about the os at all
>>107651972GarbageOS
>>107651853more like for troons.
>>107651193Snaps are slow and trying to work around snap-only or snap-default apps is a pain. I prefer aptitude and flatpak.
>>107650456I run Slackware. Come see when your balls drop and your voice stops changing, Champ.
>>107650456Arch is just Gentoo for brainlets Fedora and *buntu are for the working man
I just look at the steam stats which OS is the most used. And it seems to be Ubuntu. So I use Ubuntu.The Mint kernel is too outdated, because it's based on the LTS version of Ubuntu. So I can't use that.And I prefer apt above whatever the fuck Fedora is doing. Because now I can at least troubleshoot my own machine.
>>107652201Pop is actually the best distro, out of the box, for gaming.
what if 4chan made a distro
>>107650665He's a big guy
>>107652285What does this even mean?
>>107652201You really can't "learn" (how many package manager commands do you regularly utilize anyway?) or even cross-compare another package manager and that alone is what locks you into canonical's retarded decisions?
>>107652409nta but i'm still not clear on what the actual differences are between package managers, aside from different syntax
>>107650701Where? I'll buy a macfag. Do they give good head?
>>107652425dependency resolution, package format, pretty much everything that makes them do what they do
>>107652346For you.
>>107652285Pop's new desktop is still in beta even if they're calling it "epoch" or whatever, and changing the DE would just turn it into a System76-branded Mint.
>>107652425Biggest difference might be the default package formats of the files (.rpm/.deb) that they install But you're right to be confused as I certainly am from the other anon's complaint because they're essentially just different ways to skin the same cat and they generally all do the same exact things: 1. Install software 2. Remove software 3. Handle dependency resolution4. List/show software 5. Add/remove remote sources/reposThat's all. If they do it they MIGHT have slightly different syntax "upgrade" vs "update" (maybe), "info" vs "show"
>>107652451What do you mean "beta?" Ive been running 24.04 with cosmic since release. Haven't had a single issue. Not one. Even OBS is working fine. Not a single problem with games or steam either.
>>107652465>>107652425I should add "how" they go about it, i.e. their implementation details which define performance and what they choose to do in dependency resolution, especially in default cases, might be worth digging into but I'd say that's more of a niche concern and not worth the level of autism displayed by some on this board, imo
>>107652465Thanks for the screenshot. It could be useful later on.
Arch is only for x86_64 with a shitty repo, the 30 retards in charge of the project can barely do infrastructure maintenance and just pushes everyone to do their jobs instead "because arch is a community". Couldn't even maintain a package signing server, maintainer had to sign with their own computer, until Valve had enough and gave them a server, then Arch went nuts with the "we are collaborating with Valve".>but Arch is not only x86_64Yeah, that's another project not affiliated with the official Arch project.>but Fedora is beta testingPretty much anything released and funded by Red Hat ends up in most distros. You tell me why Arch accepts all of that. Right, Arch just cares about being upstream (which is the real beta testing) and adopt what already works, they don't define new ways to do things, they don't do shit. SystemD, wayland, flatpak, pipewire, podman, btrfs, valkey, atomic distros, shim UEFI bootloader, NetworkManager, firewalld, bootc,toolbox, cockpit, plymouth, and way more, pushing for actual change. Fedora touches a lot of uncomfortable topics because it has to be talked about sooner or later, decisions are made, everyone criticize and once it is demonstrated it works, gets adopted by everyone. Of course they have failures but that is the purpose of the distro (while obeying US Laws, like the Linux Kernel itself). Debian is meant to be a distribution for everyone (ironically it cannot be distributed in North Korea, Syria, Iran and Cuba). Gentoo is meant to give the most customization to their users (which I think is the real Arch, with or without compiling).You like to build your system from the ground up? You can do that with Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, Guix, NixOS, Slackware, openSUSE. Want server image? A running GUI ootb? A minimal image? Other architectures? They got you covered, Arch can't. They don't care, is not the scope of the project and that's fine. But users think Arch is the greatest shit and it's not.

>>107652330>newfags don't remember cloveros
>>107650456unlike arch which is a meme, redhat/fedora is the one that decide the standards in the major linux distros
>>107651401fedora installer is indeed very straightforward and much simpler and easier than debian, while debian still has some technicality bullshitI can see why linus prefer it
>>107653484Arch faggots will never recover
>>107650612Linus also said that he installed Fedora because he couldn't figure out how to install Debian.
>>107655110Debian only has three weird things during install.1. Finding the right installer.2. Asking for a root user and password, while you should just leave it empty.3. Asking for your domain, while you should just leave it empty.
>>107655122the partition set is insanely counterintuitive too, specially if you want set a proper encrypted drive. but there are many sites/videos around teaching how to do and it works.
>>107650456>by insecure peopleI believe the words you are looking for are "employed people"
>>107655122Congrats on being more tech-savvy than the lead kernel maintainer
>>107652480hi Murphy
>>107651401who gives a shit about this dumbfag? I can see in the image he is relying on another faggot to install the OS, and he is the same nigger who mucked up his linux gaming video with a bunch of lies
>>107655506I think that anon was referring to torvalds not sebastian
>>107655702I'm pretty sure that's the joke, bud.
>>107654904This.
>>107654904>>107655891>uses krashDE>complains about krasheswhat causes this?
>>107655110Almost as if he needs to use his PC to do things rather than tinker around. I bet Linus is a gigaboomer that just uses the default for everything.
>>107655872yes and I pointed that out so your small brain can finally understand the jokeget it?
>>107651401Using gnome and fedora is a nigger choice. I accept fedora only with kde.
I use Fedora because the last time I used Arch, it fail to update.I still watch to use Arch with Hyprland deep down, but I also dislike debugging my computer.
