  • The website looks cool.

  • If you have to pick only one Desktop Environment and use it till your computer breaks, what would you choose?

    Jump

  • There is nothing better than Xfce, if you dont like the desktop, at least Xfce allows you to customize. KDE seems interesting, but the last time i tried it, 10 years ago more or less, it was a bit buggy.

  • Ubuntu explores replacing gnu utils with rust based uutils

    Jump

  • I prefer a glibc replacement.

  • Help me like desktop linux

  • Have you tried Mac OS ? It is probably more polished than distros and less enshittified than Windows.

  • Ubuntu Will Replace GNU Core Utilities With Rust

    Jump

  • IMHO distros share the same apps. The defaults can differ, the implementations too but the user can install apps that are on other distros.

  • It is that software. https://www.passwordstore.org/ I still backup in an external dd but there are ways to store them online, like a git repository as instance.

  • I use Librewolf, I manage passwords with pass and rofi. Hoppefuly AIs will write a new FOSS web browser. I read here and here that the web standards are too big to be implemented by humans.

  • Welp, I just apt purge'd damn near everything except the kernel. How's your Friday going?

    Jump

  • You can also install Alpine.

  • [Answered] Most customizable desktop environment?

    Jump

  • I customised Xfce a lot, only with menu settings. I removed the window tabs from the status bar, the focused window title is written on the status bar. The window manager was removed for bspwm. The result is an optimized screen space while keeping the convenience of a DE.

  • What's your favorite DE, and what does your workflow look like?

    Jump

  • I use Xfce with a swap of the window manager by Bspwm. I got the easy to configure Xfce status bar (instead of things like polybar and others...) and also the Xfce terminal, file manager... The window title is written to the status bar. I use Super + B/N to switch the workspaces. Some apps are set to floating mode like the image viewer, the calculator... So everything can be displayed in a good tiling WM and I don't need to manipulate windows.

  • Systemd (apparently this issue is still so hot that a D or a d makes a difference, whatever)

    Jump

  • Redhat rewrites everything "not invented here" and put these things under "systemd" name. There are misundestanding between people that have political concerns, and people just happy to get unified shiny things. If one day Redhat provides a Systemd-OS I'm sure most people will be happy, and will shit on the previous system, with a separated kernel and the freedom of composing your own OS. Most people just wants an open-source Windows and I can understand that. But I also understand people that are ready to sacrifice some convenience to get a composable OS that can be maintained outside of big companies, thanks to simpler components

    Arch Linux – Best Tips for Beginners?

    Jump

  • I installed Arch like that. When I had to do a new install, I forgot everything, then I used archinstall with Xfce option and it worked fine.

  • Should I use the Linux-libre kernel or no?

  • If you hardware is compatible, go for it !

    SDL3 is officially released!

  • Xfce is more stable and less demanding for laptops comparing to Kde. The default can be changed easily. Im glad Xfce still exists !

  • Which default software do you replace after you install your distro?

    Jump

  • Doas has a readable config file and it is easier to add an user. To answer your question On an MX install.

    Xfwm -> bspwm

    Dont remember -> nsxiv

    Don't remember -> mpv

    Featherpad -> Mousepad

  • You are used to KDE and Gnome is very different But also KDE is buggy, I dont know how Steamdeck people make it better. If you chose Xfce, you will get a KDE similar desktop but more robust. Xfce can look modern with few efforts. MX Linux distro is a good example of a nice Xfce config.
