The Steam Deck and my Framework 13 use these and they run games no problem

My opinion is that only 2 Fallout games were made: Fallout 1 and Fallout 2.

Fight me.

Telling a tinkerer they can’t modify their system is terrifying.

So essentially you have a base system and you add what you need through flatpak, distrobox, homebrew, and if all else fails, by layering the packages on the base image with rpm-ostree. What you can’t do (that I’m aware of), is remove packages, or make bigger changes like adding another desktop environment aside what it came from. I mean, I guess you can do it by layering but it’s probably messy.
Configuration and customisation are not an issue: /etc and /var are not immutable of course.

Distrobox is super cool btw, I knew it existed but Bazzite pushing me to use it was what I needed to finally try and appreciate it.

I’m afraid I’m too old for that journey

Btw if typing scary, you can always use the KDE Task Manager like a Windows user. Just don’t let people see you.

You will regret your weakness!

I used to be afraid of immutable distros. I was wrong.

Linux users on Lemmy hit an all-time high

Do it. Don’t you want to run btop and feel badass?

Because it downloads nothing and it’s got several softwares and tools bundled in

I used to use arch btw, but then I grew old and moved to Fedora. Then I saw the light and installed Bazzite on everything, even my coffe machine. It’s got RGB now.
You should install Bazzite, save your soul.

Are you saying that you use arch btw?

I’ve only had that issue like two times, and I’ve got 10 users on my server. And people can change their own password.

Whatever beginner friendly distro you choose, I suggest you use it as if you were a grandma, especially if you have experience in troubleshooting Windows. It’s natural to try to find the solution to a problem by doing a Google search, but first of all Linux changes quickly, so solutions that are older than 2 years may be outdated, over 5 years they likely are, and they may apply to different distros than yours, so be careful. Always check your DE’s settings app first, those have gotten really good in the last few years.
Don’t be afraid to ask in chatrooms if your distro has any, the myth of the rude Linux community is just that, a myth.

Package manager. Package managers are responsible for managing your installed software. There are a variety of options, and distros typically will choose one as their default. Pacman for Arch, Aptitude for Debian, RPM for RedHat, and others. These are mostly interchangeable for the end user, but each has slightly different commands and frontends. So just be aware there will be a bit of an extra learning curve moving from a distro that uses one to a distro that uses another.

RedHat uses dnf, RPM is the package format.

Apt sucks, pacman is ok, dnf is the best, history and rollback are great.

That’s for sysadmins.

These days I don’t even care what fs I use, I just let the distro choose its default, I simply make sure encryption is enabled.

Mine has its own power brick

Would you rather allow everyone access to your server?
