Me using GNOME on Arch
Arch users whenever they update
Ironic that this image does not load for me
same using alexandrite
Works on my PC
Btw I use Arch
I think I never waited so long for so few pixels outside or Reddit.
yay
That but add an -Syu at the end.
No need for that, why typing useless letters?
Why use many words when few words do trick?
yay
Awwww my GUI stopped working again after an update
Rolling release?
I want revolving release, every one is a russian roulette to destroy my system
Welcome to Manjaro.
can’t understand how manjaro is still alive, given how much better endeavouros configures the system
Yeah, no idea. EOS is much better in every single way.
I really do want to thank Arch, Fedora, NixOS, OpenSUSE users for beta testing software for me.
Arch is the least buggy distro I ever tried.
Except for Slackware maybe. Slackware has literally no bugs. If it doesn’t behave like it should, it’s your fault.
I broke my install by updating it, I get that if you perfectly understand what’s going on then it has no bugs but that’s really not my experience. A lot of the time something will break and it’s easy to say “I should’ve known it was this so it’s my fault” but really if you didn’t expect it to work a certain way and it breaks it’s not a super stable system.
My Ubuntu broke literally every time I did a version upgrade. It’s probably better now, but I’m not going back.
The last system that straight up broke for me was a default installation of Debian Stable, and that wasn’t long ago.I understand Arch isn’t easy to use or maintain.
But in my opinion, if you use something wrong and it breaks, that doesn’t mean it’s unstable. And if you update Arch by simply hitting “pacman -Syu” every day, you’re doing it wrong.But if lots of people use it wrong and break it then maybe it’s too obtuse. I broke one of my applications by upgrading packages. The solution? Install the package again, I thought the package manager would take care of stuff like that but if it’s meant to be me then I think it’s a bad system.
I always find it kinda weird when people criticize free software.
Like, the developers make something, give it to you for free, pay for server space so you can download it for free, and then you say “it sucks”.
OK, just don’t use it then.Criticism and hate are two different things. I hate windows, I can criticise parts of arch Linux which is so far my favourite OS. Me not liking part of it or the way it works doesn’t mean there’s another version that is completely perfect and I should just shut up and use that. Also no it doesn’t suck, but updating my system and having it break is a problem I should not be having.
Made the switch on EndeavourOS this morning and so far so good. I was hesitant to update to Wayland because I’m still a newb and heard there were issues, but my system is AMD based so no problems (yet).
I like it
My biggest issue with wayland was screensharing on Discord, but plasma 6 fixed that with xwaylandvideobridge
I’ve been using Wayland as a daily driver for a few years now, and I’d say it’s ready for 98% of use cases
I think most people complaining about Wayland nowadays are just Nvidia users. I don’t have any problems with it on my AMD GPU.
Why would I want Plasma 6 on a stable release. That’s not why people use Debian
Yeah, this kind of misunderstands what debian is. If you wanted newer bleeding edge stuff you wouldn’t be using debian. Debian is all about the stability.
That said, Debian Sid or testing (the bleeding edge system that 13 will come from) may move to 6? Debian 12 was last year so 13 would be in 2025, so it seems likely 6 will make its way into the bleeding edge versions if people really wanted to use it. But there are better options for most end users than using test versions of major distros.
This is more accurate
Actually, I enjoy not having to rush to reconfigure my DE
Apparently the upgrade (including configuration) is incredibly smooth. Those interested in tinkering with the vanilla experience have had to install it in a VM.
What distros have more up to date packages than Debian but aren’t as bleeding edge as arch? I’m looking for an in between.
Fedora is great. Heavily modded distros like Nobara is awesome too specifically for gaming but for privacy I recommend doing a thorough look over.
Debian Testing or openSuse Tumbleweed

Yes, obviously, software remains exactly the same after 1 and a half decade, I still run the original UNIX created at bell.
