I feel like the meme got it backwards. People fussing over WMs in the middle, while newbies and veterans just using whatever comes by default on Fedora

    It probably has a lot of benefits but I don't think I could ever get used to immutable linux distros, especially since I really like customisability (I use Gentoo for a reason!!)

    Yeah that was my thought too, but it turns out it was a misconception. It's perfectly customisable, I can install whatever I want in multiple ways without messing up my system. Right now I'm running IDEs with multiple compilers, LLMs, diffusion models, 3D printing slicers, 3D modeling, etc...

    Honestly yes. A few years ago when I was still getting into linux I'd customize the shit out of everything, wm with lengthy configuration, mostly terminal apps, "minimal" ui with custom made themes, and all that.

    My current fedora system is almost default Sway with a few convienent shortcuts and a few tweaks, using GUIs where it makes sense or simply because I just want something nice. I just don't have time or the need for something so customized. Defaults are good.

    Heck, I'm even considering switching to Plasma once I get a better PC (gonna need to sell a kidney or two for that to happen tho), since default Sway still requires considerable tweaking and there's a few quirks I just don't want to deal with.

    I started on xfce because people said it was good for old systems. Turns out plasma runs fine on everything I've tried from the last 15 years!
