@LeFantome

Alma is a good distro, though I do sometimes wonder at these distros that are just another distro repackaged. Kind of seems a bit disingenuous to me.

@digdilem @LeFantome

I'm actually curious. Does Oracle build off of RHEL too? I believe they made overtures toward the RHEL based distros about supporting them if RHEL did not. SuSE made similar overtures.

If you're going to distro hop, do it, don't let people tell you you're wrong. I've learned how to set up and use a variety of Linux and BSD systems by distro hopping. But, I think maybe you should set up one system that is solid and then distro hop in virtual machines using VirtualBox. It works well and often can handle things like Haiku and Amiga type OSes as well. Just for fun, of course.

@halm @pineapplelover

What is it about flatpaks that bothers you? I am curious. My experience with them is good, except that are sometimes slower to launch.

Or, even better, use containers to have access to whatever distro/packaging system you want, like Vanilla OS does.

@crypto @Laser Linux desktop is not one thing. If you have a company that standardizes on Gnome, then the software you need to work will work as they will likely have been tested to work. As for work, well, not everyone uses it for work.

@FQQD @p_q if you want that hardware to support something the manufacturer will not support, open source bios can be useful.

@interolivary maybe, but sometimes you just have to accept people at face value.

@interolivary I think he was being facetious and I’ll accept that
