this is just calamares, the most used installer across the span of linux distros.

on the question of why this approach vs dedicated desktop environment installs, well, ive always wondered about the pros and cos there too. one pro is that with a dedicated DE iso you dont need an internet connection to install it. otherwise im not sure why people would choose one or the other.

yeah snapper is brilliant, and snap is trash.

LOL. respectfully, this is a hilarious question.

if i understand correct, base distros like arch and debian have many servers and this shouldnt be an issue. Perhaps the mirrors you are choosing are slow. Ive had terrible experiences choosing geographically close mirrors. If youre using pacman maybe trying rate mirrors or reflector and just letting the it auto select for you would help.

never having to resize windows with my mouse, or sort through layers of stacked windows has been a life changer for me.

also, if i open two windows it automatically uses the space. non tiling doesnt usually act this nicely

i wish kde and krohnkite handled onscreen keyboards properly together. the windows just resize and glitch the fuck out unless its the sole window open.

edit - im a kde diehard fan and i never use it without krohnkite. but these days im preferring using niri + a custom mix of dms and noctalia shell. you should check out the shells, they give nearly a full desktop experience these days.

ah ok. thanks

i dont understand why this is a conversation. shouldnt we just have the option to turn it on and off?

check out Ly, its default is a black screen https://github.com/fairyglade/ly

incredibly unhelpful

trickles down from the base kde packages. this is simple.

it appears they may not understand rolling release, or proper grammar to describe the situation, but theres an actual answer to their question, which is anything but “not at all”.

they would still be totally wrong. it will be available for new installs the moment kde adds it to the plasma packages. their comment makes zero sense.

??? are you being serious? obviously fedorah isnt arch.

anyway, Cachy will have it the second KDE adds it to the plasma / kde-applications packages.

there is and i also think there should be.

but i would never use one or recommend doing so.

sadly i was forced to go to a number of them.

here, look for the chart breakdown regarding age and religiousness. good day. https://www.theglobalstatistics.com/religion-in-us-statistics/

lol … who do you think religious congregations are comprised of?

im new here bc my reddit account got banned for no reason as well. its really a shame. 6 years of info and notekeeping built up and then just stolen from me with no explanation at all.

This only makes the most sense. What other group has proven to be easier to scam? None, I’d imagine.

the title of the post and the thumbnail are bringing me a lot of joy right now

this happened to my 6 year old reddit account a couple weeks ago. i didnt break any rules that im aware of and its kinda devastating, as i use it to learn about tech and find new software. im happy to be here, and will remain active here, but it was such a valuable resource for me, and i feel like it was stolen from me.

its this
