Y'know what would be neat? A web app that recommends you a linux distro based on your specific needs/preferences
Edit: oh dang someone did it already https://distrochooser.de/
Hmm.. my distro was the second one recommended to me. First was OpenSUSE. I have yet to try that one, but have tested most of the others it recommended. Guess I need to pop OpenSUSE on my Ventoy stick!
^ yus.
And fiddling with the dials on https://distrowatch.com/search.php can help too (e.g. selecting beginners from distribution category drop-down menu).
distrochooser.de & distrowatch.com/search.php, powerful combo to help find the right distro for you.
Finally I can apply my extensive knowledge from distro hopping for the last 3 decades ๐ช
That's a fun idea. Unfortunately I'm too much of a noob to play ๐

Why? How the hell does this make sense?
Was kinda fun but a lot of fields don't make sense for a lot of distros.
I have seen some fields that are weird but I don't see a problem with the android one? Well I guess calling it rolling isn't quite right but otherwise it's pretty accurate

Wahhh, sorry. Jeroba timed out while making the post, and I know sometimes when it does that it posts anyway so I normally check...and I did this time as well, but it didn't show up so I figured it had actually failed...and it hadn't...ughhhh.
I also use jerboa, can understand
Difficulty isn't intermediate. Not rolling. It's also not just arm and x86
I thought they had dropped most of the other ISAs, have they not? historically it wasn't just those 2 though
Did they? Might be my bad then
Went and looked it up, Android officially supports Armv7, Armv8, x86, amd64, and riscv64, so it's missing riscv but otherwise mostly correct
