I've probably even tried a couple other distros before but only very briefly. It takes effort to break them in any way that I can't manage to figure out how to fix. I settled on Linux Mint as my daily runner, but one of these days I might have to give TempleOS a spin in a virtual machine.. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Hudell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 9 months ago (1 child) Try an atomic distro too, if you haven't yet. It's a completely different experience from regular Linux - specially the ones that take care of everything for you like UBlue's. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] harmbugler@piefed.social 3 points 9 months ago* As a chaos monkey, I haven't broken this atomic distro in a few years. It usually takes me less than a year to break my distro's package system beyond my comprehension (or something equally important, but it's usually the packages). permalink fedilink source parent [–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 1 point 9 months ago Ohhhhh boy. I surfed over a thousand distro ISOs. Couldn't have just one. ... Now, for over a decade, I've calmed down. Settled down with Bedrock Linux. ;) (That's cheating!) permalink fedilink source parent
