Looking at you Valheim

They haven’t had that in a while. Dropped it on the remake too. Wtf?

I was an Ubuntu person for a long time, and when reading criticism about the inability to upgrade versions, I realized that had been my entire experience. I decided to give a rolling release a chance, and it’s been amazing.

I use arch(installer)btw. 🐧 AURs are pretty ingenuous, which is just pulling and compiling a git. Maybe a little less secure, but look at what happened to the snap store this year.

If you want to try a rolling release but didn’t want to use Arch, there’s always Fedora, & OpenSuSE Tumbleweed.

Outside of that, for non Ubuntu distros you could do OpenSuSE regular, or for true LTS use Rocky. Or take the red pill and go with Hannah Montana’s Linux.

I heard antifa shops at target.

The easiest step into this world is KDE. It has a store for users to share global themes, color themes, even sddm animations.

You can use kwin rules to send certain apps to certain desktops, start shaded, all sorts of fun stuff.

And then you can throw a tiling manager on top of that. If you want to use the control panel, you can install bismuth. If you’re comfortable editing text files, awesome or i3 (but I have yet to go that far).

If you really want to go for it, hyperland looks incredible, but it is a lot of up front work.

Not to be pedantic but KDE is a desktop environment not a an OS. Perhaps you were thinking of KDE Neon?

On win 10 that crapware would reinstall on every feature update.

I picked up a used HP Envy x360 with the ryzen processor and it’s been pretty good. The stylus is t a full digitizer like a Wacom, but it’s good enough for sketching

Audiobook server does work with ebooks.

I think the steam deck is becoming the first computing device for a lot of young people that had iPads, and it’s going to be a desktop computer for a lot of aspiring and broke college students. It’s definitely a gateway device.

I wish they would just release a docker so I could install it myself…

Photoshop Web is closest

You have to edit the registry at install to get Win11 to install on most machines.

Steam deck has entered the chat.

What if you wanted to use 1pass or LastPass? They work flawlessly as browser extensions.

Craigslist is all we have!

And unionized

Matrix/Element has been the best for our group. You could also give rocket chat or Mattermost a spin.

In another comment you said the head phones jack on the monitor is busted. It might be that the system thinks headphones are plugged in. Just a random guess, I don’t even know if Linux can do that (windows can).

Try anything out of the discover app. Like someone else said super tux cart. You’re just looking for an audio signal to figure out if this is a wine thing or a system thing.
