People need to learn the fucking say what they mean then.

ChromeOS and android are Linux. They arnt GNU/Linux. They are specialized system for purpose systems.

If you mean only desktop GNU/Linux then fucking say THAT.

The zune was one of the single greatest MP3 players ever made. Microsoft as dumb as they are is still right twice a day.

The zune died before it’s time.

He means panning. The fact you didn’t understand that kinda highlights the very problem at hand.

Middle mouse scrolling is both the mouse wheel for up and down and for panning. The copy paste function breaks panning in some situations which is very annoying and inconsistent

It’s not in windows. It’s also something that nearly every new user iv helped and taught to use Linux over the like 3 years has bitched about. And iv helped hundreds.

It’s been a pretty disliked feature for as long as I can remember for new users. I remember seeing it pop up rather frequently even back in ye olden times of fourms asking how to turn it off.

It’s just one of those old school things that people are use to so no one’s ever really questioned it. And being Linux there’s always been ways to turn off the feature.

Frankly Iv thought it should be disabled by default for like the last decade now. It’s a nice option but it does really make very little sense.

M3 is for panning and having it play double duty as a secondary clipboard is annoying.

It’s basically the modern version of warcraft 3 custom games, second life, or gmod.

It’s an engine and a platform with a shared cash shop.

If you arnt willing to use grown up words then don’t talk about grown up subjects. It’s just tedious and insulting to the rest of us to have to deal with playing games while speaking of heavy topics. And does nothing but makes light of a topic that should be taken seriously.

If you have that unhealthy a paranoia then just avoid the topic entirely. It’s not healthy for yourself to feed your own paranoia and degrade your mental health.

Generally your life is improved any time you choose to not engage with gnome or it’s nonsense. It’s a good rule of thumb for everything Linux related.

Gnome is just bad apple.

It’s like gaming laptops. The concept of something being “gaming” focused is nonsense bullshit pr spin.

If it’s good at gaming it’s basically just good at everything. But people gobble up gaming like leds on a serect lab chair.

I mean fedora is pretty famous for data gathering in the Linux space. It’s kinda what they do. They have ended up in rather sizeable kerfuffles over it.

Fedora is after all one of the two /corpo/ option of the Linux world right next to Ubuntu.

Across 3 offices and hundreds of PCs literally have never personally seen a issue with printers on Linux that wasnt like I forgot to hook it up to the network or something stupid.

Printers tend to just work.

Cachy/endeavour is literally more stable from updates than other options at this point.

Every distro is equally breakable by the user so that’s a moot point to compare them.

Which is the whole point of atomic distros to fix that point.

You literally should basically be going bazzite if you don’t want immutable go arch. In the context of gaming.

Like 90% of the problems over the last 3 years I see new users have is that they try a Ubuntu family distro and run head first into the shit show of how out of date they are and how shitty ppas are.

Literally just the immutable thing. Otherwise it’s either worse or equal to every other flavor of the month option.

So it just comes down to do you consider immutability a positive. If you do it’s the top of the stack since other options are not immutable.

You act like arch is gentoo :P compiling on arch is like a blue moon event. You complie on arch about as much as you would on fedora.

Generally no… Cachyos steam deck version is better in basically every test iv seen them compared head to head in.

Bazzite is more or less the default choice cause it’s a flavor of the month more then it makes any kind of actual sense.

If your going to bazzite your typically better off staying on the stock OS.

The problem with a new user is they need more documentation and more resources which atomic distros like bazzite have less of. Making them worse.

Bazzite is for knowledgeable users who don’t want to tinker much anymore or children who aren’t allowed to modify their computer.

Honestly it’s pretty easy to decide if you should use cachy or bazzite.

Do you use your PC for anything more then office PC or console? If yes pick cachy. If no pick bazzite.

Atomic is great till you have to do fucking anything then it’s more effort then it’s worth basically instantly. And iv seen more people break bazzite trying to do basic shit then iv seen cachy randomly explode because “arch is unstable”.

Bazzite is not a home user desktop os, no atomic os is. The entire concept is basically designed for locked down office PCs and consoles where you don’t actually do anything with the PC but use it.

If your giving a PC to a elderly family member, a child, you do actual business on it that’s mission critical. Bazzite is fucking fantastic, so long as you also never give the admin password to the user.

Seriously the entire atomic concept really is… Baffling tho… Its best use case is one that doesn’t really exist in the same context as gaming unless it’s a console. It’s baffling that bazzite is as popular as it is. If not for the simple fact there is an absurd amount of misinformation around arch and really Linux in general.

Because people cling to out of date knowledge from a decade ago because of memes.

Really 9 times out of 10 normal fedora is better for most avg users then cachy or bazzite.

I just wish Debian didn’t use apt. Got fuck I hate apt. With a fucking passion. FUCK APT.

The img predates ai… So no it’s not ai. Tigers are just jacked as fuck. When they are relaxed the skin is saggy yeah, but when they actually flex or are in a pose that tightens the skin the muscles are normally very defined.

Avoid Ubuntu like a plague it’s one of the least googleable distros there are. It suffers massively from poor documentation and out of date fourm posts. Not to mention gnome at this point has endless weird problems for new users.

Iv helped over 200 people over the last year change to Linux. Gnome has been the cause of almost every major problem with them.

Stick to kde, stick to fedora or arch, stay away from lts releases or anything with an older kernel.

There’s a really good reason steam went with arch.

And let’s not forget the avg person is dumb as rocks. All of us included.
