You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about. You have no idea how much the Linux desktop experience has improved just in the past 10, or even 5 years. There’s been LEAPS in advancement and Windows compatibility. It gets easier to use by the day. And Steam deciding to use Linux for its gaming devices is one proof of that.

In addition, this adoption means there will be much higher demand for new features and functionality, and potentially greater bug discovery. And there will be an increased involvement in the development and improvement from European countries to achieve these goals. Which will lead to an even faster growth and improvement of Linux in general.

So? You still get the updates sooner or later.

What enshittification? It’s one of the best distributions out there!

good!

I used to be a build engineer at an enterprise Linux company that built custom Linux distributions for various device manufacturers.

I built a whole build automation system that used what would be the equivalent of a Docker container for the build system, and it was distributed across the whole company to make simultaneous build in parallel and a system that would check how many build systems were in use or available with a queueing system.

All written in Bash, Perl and Python.

ok.

Look at me. A geriatric Linux user.

Back in my day we forwarded X over SSH. Which was the style at the time.

I’ve been using XFree86 and Xorg for so long. I’ll have to learn how to configure Wayland in case shit hits the fan. I also wonder how that will affect remote ssh X forwarding, or NVIDIA drivers.

Linux Mint is nice, but I feel like the look & feel is starting to look outdated. Otherwise it’s an excellent choice.

He means the best in desktop experience when it comes to desktops with the best adoptability.

Hyprland is a compositor, not a desktop environment.
