Tried for half the weekend to get elementary to work, it just refused to install for reasons unknown.

Gone with Mint for now.

I like the hardware (an old Intel MacBook Air) and didn’t want it to go to waste.

I’ll see how I get on with this desktop. Went feet first straight to bare metal because I couldn’t be bothered with dual boot. It was too much faff. Would value any insight from others who’ve found a lovely distro/DE combo with these tiny machines.

Making my first moves away from proprietary software. Thanks largely to being inspired by you delightful folk.

Hello, I am looking for a well-supported Linux / BSD distribution with focus on following features (in no particular order) -

• Systemd free (found some here)
• Security focused (meaning hardened, not security tools)
• Wayland (preferably without anything X11)
• Lightweight (as much as possible)
• Supports flatpak, containers and VMs (preferably libvirt)
• Atomic (more optional then other requirements)

This is expected to be run on real hardware on desktop (so alpine will not work).

Along with that, what are some good lightweight (but well-known / actively maintained) desktop environments for Wayland?

• I see some here but am looking for opinions or if some are missing.
• Especially ones that support stacking.

The most interesting ones I could find -

• Void Linux (has some X11 stuff, not security focused, will try installing Wayland)
• Kicksecure, OpenBSD, HardenedBSD (yet to explore more for these)
• MXLinux and Artix (seem very niche)?

I am looking for more recommendations/opinions for similar requirements, especially if there are better known ones.

A week old, but better late than never... I haven't seen it posted elsewhere.

I just finished bulk-marking them as "not spam" in an attempt to undo the work, and I always check my spam inbox manually anyway, but I just thought this was... interesting, as I've never had anything remotely like this happen before in my life. Does anyone have any idea of how this happened? Why is such a piece of software still allowed in managers?

Is the surface pro 10 a modern working tablet?

According to the feature matrix it works good. Does anyone own one? Is there another one that I missed?

I want a new laptop/tablet. I don't play games. I just write prose most of the time or write code. Arm, touchscreen and handy device size seems to be the only awesome innovation compared to my old laptop in my view.
