I know it's an unpopular opinion given current circumstances, but I've always been a huge nerd about Russia. The history, the geography, the music, etc. And as an American, I've always found it fascinating how U.S.-Russian relations have fluctuated over time. We've gone from allies, to enemies, to frenemies. This doesn't mean I support Z or Putin, of course. What are you a nerd about?

But do you use Arch btw?

[–] WeLoveCastingSpellz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

haha, no(mostly). I like what Arch is and definetly do think that there is a place for it but that place isn't one of my PC's as I have no time or effort to maintain a rolling release distro and want my pc to consistently work and not break after updates hence my distro of choice Fedora(it is a fork of fedora but it is pretty much fedors really) which is a stable relase distro. I use Arch inside distrobox to benefit from that sweet sweet AUR repo though.

I found that Arch worked the best for me as my main OS, been using it for around 3 years. True that sometimes it's a pain to set things up, but once it's done, life's just so easy!! Though, I use debian on my server.
