Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    Machine is a HP ENVY x360 Convertible 15-eu1xxx with the touch screen. Ryzen 7 5825U, touch screen 16gb RAM.

    Top recommendation of within one hour of me posting this decides what distro I install. Please not Hannah Montana linux or even worse, Arch.

    I leave the decision up to you.

    Edit:

    The winner was linux mint. I've downloaded the ISO and am installing now. I hope my boss doesn't get pissed.

    Arch Linux plssssss

    [–] John@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 8 months ago

    If you want to keep it simple, just go with Gentoo

    [–] JoShmoe@ani.social 6 points 9 months ago

    Steam OS!

    [–] DerpDerpingtonIsHere@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

    But arch is an easy install now. But how about gentoo

    MX Linux

    [–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

    MX linux looks sick af. I was expecting more meme recomendations, but aye, voting is only been going for 7 minutes.

    I think I could deal with Hannah Montana linux. I don't know if I could deal with Arch.

    I had to try really hard not to make a joke as a recommendation. But on second thought, I really think you should use Red Star OS.

    I'd suggest something with KDE Plasma, such as Kubuntu or OpenSUSE or something.

    [–] wildbus8979@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

    Debian testing.

    Works great, I very very rarely have issues. Avoid updates for the month after the new stable and you're good.

    [–] laurelraven@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 9 months ago

    Dammit, too late to suggest Gentoo

    Mint is a great option, if your boss is mad then they lack good taste.

    MX Linux

    [–] testeronious@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (3 children)

    Why would your boss get pissed? Does he care about the O.S people are using?

    [–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 7 points 8 months ago

    Most corporate environments would not be ok with you randomly deciding to replace the OS, yes.

    [–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

    Jokes on them (I am the boss)

    [–] Ashe@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 8 months ago

    Depending on MDM and conditional access policies, I'd say probably

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 8 months ago

    I'm glad we could help
