Why the fuck do people who know what a "github" is, much less how to post issues use Telegram?

Fun fact: that's why most computer programming languages use "!=" instead of "≠"

Mint is based on ubuntu, and doesnt have the corporate slop.

What's corporate slop? Mint is just a mediocre rebrand with a different default DE, and way less maintainers/testers (which is why there are so many people asking why X doesn't work, where "X" is a basic thing any other distro does effortlessly)

Bazzitte relies on flatpaks which is janky at best. Try explaining why you cant drag and drop in applications because they’ve been sandboxed…

Flatpaks support drag and drop just fine. I think you're confused?

As for fedora… what does it offer better?

Than Mint? The same thing Ubuntu does: reliability. The average windows user isn't going to sign up to a web forum to post a question asking how to fix something that doesn't work, they'll just go back to Windows.

The best way to avoid that is to not recommend a fragile OS like Mint. Fedora, Ubuntu, and Bazzite are all far better choices.

Stop recommending Mint, especially to beginners. Ubuntu, Fedora, and Bazzite are all better for first time users because they actually work, they have much larger support networks, and are overall much higher quality with a focus on basic reliability.

Begone, tankie.

I bet you have some interesting opinions.

Microsoft hasn't been known for good engineering for... a long time, but this seems like the type of idea an undergrad with zero real world experience might come up with (or I guess AI).

This is why I avoid corporate languages like this. Swift and Go are also on my "hell no" list.

Earlier this year, Hector Martin resigned from kernel development because he claimed kernel devs were trying to sabotage efforts to get Rust into the kernel. While he's been gone, it seems the pace of Rust integration has increased significantly, suggesting that maybe he was the problem all along.

Lesson: always push out egomaniacs who like to create drama more than they want to solve problems.
