No, when the dev was a kid he pushed another kid off the swingset and I’m pretty sure it was racially motivated. Better just move into the woods and use only stone and wood tools you make yourself, just to be safe! Never know who could have done what, the people who are “good” probably just haven’t been caught being bad yet.
They seem to simultaneously be ineffective at anything, but also responsible for all the evil in the world
Why does that sound so familiar? Hmm…
OH. Uh-oh.
So transphobia and authoritarianism are totally cool just as long as they don’t wear Hugo Boss?
Who knew.
Idk why nobody knew about it until recently, ime (and I’ve never used Zorin), I feel like even before the recent (likely paid advertising) campaign I still saw it almost once or twice per thread, usually something like “I’d go mint, unless you need cutting edge then Fedora, or if you really need it to look like windows then there is Zorin,” some saying “I haven’t used it but I hear it’s windows like” and stuff. I’ve seen stuff like that consistently for the last 4 or 5 years since I switched and I was the one asking distro advice and being told mint, fedora, zorin, or pop. It has never been the top answer but it was always there, lurking in the shadows.
It’s been asked a million times, and it’ll be answered every time, and the answers will mostly be “Mint, Fedora, FedoraKDE, and if you wanna game Bazzite.”
The real advice that gets posted less, regardless of distro:
Back up your important files to an external drive, often. It’s entirely possible you’ll fuck up an install beyond repair (or beyond what you know how to do at the time) and you end up reinstalling. If you can just put your important files back and be up and running, nothing of value is lost.
Don’t be scared of the terminal, it’s incredibly useful. Look up a few YT vids like “bash basics” or “linux terminal for beginners” or something and follow along like it’s a class, you’ll soon be comfortable enough to use it when you need it, and you will, and you may come to love it. It’s not as bad as windows cmd! Be careful when using sudo or su, that’s when you could really screw up the system (but mostly it’ll be fine just be careful.
And most importantly, have fun!
I can’t help but see Office Space.
Damn it feels good to be a gangsta.
Love me some Fedora, why should I switch to an immutable version? The thing that gives me pause is I like being able to change my system when I need to and have it persist, which is from what I understand the exact opposite idea of immutables (but I may be misunderstanding, thus this comment asking lol).
