I will take any and all PMs, but the best thing probably to do is burn Linux Mint to a USB stick, boot from it and try it out. It won’t touch your PC/Main install unless you want to actually install it

Would like to use nix but how do you reject the millions of LOC that is systemd? We don’t do bloat around 'eres

Docker, ansible, salt, yeah

I hope this comment is helping OP on his grammar, rsther than being picky…

Edit: Jeez saw your history, it’s all corrections lol

It’s called Debian :)

LXD is to LXC what Podman or Distrobox is to Docker (if I’m correct, it’s just a convenient wrapper that does extra bits/builds on LXC)

AKA compiling them yourself or baking them into the kernels or using DKMS :)

Piggybacking off your comment I’ve been using SFOS as a daily driver for the past couple of years and while not perfect, it does work pretty well, somewhat of an ecosystem and it runs android apps pretty flawlessly. The UI is beautiful! If you want to get away from iOS/Android it’s a decent choice.

Some parts are closed-source tho (UI secret sauce, some Jolla apps etc). The vast majority of it is open-source though and I trust the Finnish spiritual successor to maemo/nokia a lot more than a megacorp.
