Also excited for this. I tried KDE before but I didn’t find it easy to configure (too manually for a declarative guy like me). I like more the simplicity of Gnome.

Second. Up-to-date packages and stable at the same time.

Emacs will be there for you, once vscode Windows gets abandoned.

FTFY.

Just the matter of taste. For some users who want to get to code quickly, they use VSCode without the hassle. For some power users who want to have extreme extensibility, they use Emacs/Vim.

I hate Google but they gave us Go, Kubernetes. I hate Amazon but they gave us AWS. I plainly hate those companies, but adore the brilliant engineers that work there.

Nowaday I have ChatGPT spew me command. I usually do a quick validation before running. Nevertheless, most of simple operations are correct so I don’t need to.

I then note the command to my persional gist cheatsheet. Next time, since the command is “cached”, I’ll be able to be productive quicker.

So much better than googling.

This. I’m tired of all short responses that don’t want to discuss the problem or steer the topics to a direction.

The ability to rollback is indeed awesome. And it’s built-in. I think you can do it in Arch-based distros but requires additional config.

AWS. Not common but my personal lab runs on AWS so it’s nice to have a place for everything.

Arch, with a lightweight desktop environment. If you have time and dedication, obviously.

Same. I’m using betterfox and liking it so far.

The good thing is every configuration is well documented so I’m confident to make the changes myself (like enable back account sync - it’s super useful but I don’t know why it was disabled in the first place).

insert Thanos stone meme.

We self host an instance to share knowledge about self-hosting that instance.

Wow you’re self-hosting a password manager! Don’t you feel scared if something went wrong?

I’m also running Adguard as my DNS-level adblocker on my Pi 3. Feels way more content than Pihole.

Could you list some of your “stuffs” that you run on your k3s? I’m curious.

I read in “The Cathedral and The Bazaar” that Linux was not that revolutionary (it reused code and ideas from Mimix) but the collaboration of the entire talent pool from the Internet to develop the kernel is. Massively respect for Linus.

I’m curious, what are you considering moving into?

Tried it out once and really impressive with the rollback functionality (Snapper, btrfs) and killer YaST. Fedora is my main OS for working now but will definitely consider to go back to Suse one day.

+1 for Tailscale if one wants to get a private VPN up and running quickly.

And my questions got lost in a flood of messages… Even Discord now has to implement forums feature to prevent this problem.
