If you haven't already then you need to switch to Linux
Then keep reminding everyone you use Arch.
But only some distros should be used !
Arch
Debian
Mint
NixOS
Did I miss any?
I stand corrected, lol.
It took me like 5 years before I figured out Miley Cirus, Hannah Montana, and Taylor Swift were three different people.
Oh, I might have upvoted this comment, but it's only so I can come back with my army of Swifties,.Ciruses and Montanas to downvote you to the shadow realm.
/s that was awesome
Nyarch Linux
I have seen a video on that. I am not a 40y/o discord mod lmao (/j)
(no longer /j in this part) I'll try arch, and if I'm really that bored, I might try it, but it looks like something I don't want to get caught dead with for the next few years.
It looks like silly fun, but as they say on their own page, they don't recommend it as a daily driver, specifically because it was designed with humor in mind, not maintainability.
Could be worth spinning up in a VM or giving away on an old laptop, though...
or messing around with for fun! (I'd break the os, and reinstall mint probably)

only a few hundred
I knew there's thousands of distros, but didn't ever think about it that hard or visualize it, that's a lot now that I can see it!
Qubes OS
TempleOS and Miley Cyrus Linux
I'm currently running KDE Linux and I must admit I like it ! The immutable system feels weird but kinda safe. But the lack of Midnight Commander is a shame ! And I guess the not working transparency in yakuake is due to it being coded for X11.
I thought KDE was a DE, not a distro? (I'm definitely wrong and offending someone, aren't I?)
They are launching an immutable distro, it just got released in beta. Still new stuff. But it being based on the latest and greatest of KDE, I was automatically attracted.
awesome! :D

Emacs
Don’t forget GrapheneOS and Jellyfin! Anything else you can think of? It’ll be a lot easier if they can convert everything in one go.
I plan on using mint for a while to adjust, and as a daily, and trying to install arch for the 546782376th time (I haven't tried to install yet) when I'm bored
Mint's good for my purposes
Working on it lol.
Dad doesn't want to switch to linux, because "his files" or something (libreoffice and ddg??? he uses ddg on some devices already and libreoffice is like free ms365) so if I get Frankenstein the Floor Computer running, yes, I will linux (I plan on dual booting mint/arch, but not being toxic about it)
