Debian-based distros are usually the ones with the most official support and documentation with regard to Android.

Windows -> OpenSUSE Tumbleweed -> Ubuntu -> Debian GNU/Linux -> EndeavourOS

Currently using Debian and EndeavourOS in parallel as the distributions I have settled on.

Okay, but understand that from for example my point of view, your perception appears really skewed because my GNU/Linux installations have never “destroyed [themselves] after a while”. Respectfully, I think that you project your Linux failures unto the entire ecosystem, based on issues that were unique to you.

All of those things have nothing to do with GNU/Linux and everything with the desktop environment you chose.

I think we should be thankful for having users contribute long-form thought-out content like this, instead of ridiculing them.

So Firefox Nightly on the Raspberry Pi?

They can do that, but that’s not the topic of the post.

There is free speech in pretty much every capitalist country on the planet, but not in a single communist or socialist country of the present or past.

Maybe consult the literature they linked? I don’t know what special enlightenment you received that you know better than anyone else in the world about the US Constitution First Amendment, but regardless, in the scope of the topic (cryptographic algorithms), they are completely right.

I kind of feel coerced by that text into sending a copy of OpenSUSE Leap to some obscure nuclear missile programme now, just for the sake of it

No, they are not. Sovereign countries are bound by the WTO (World Trade Organisation), not US export laws.

KDE Discover? Surely looks better than whatever this is

How can Rust be faster than C? What is faster than unabstracted direct memory management?

I am pretty sure all of the KDE suite software does not use Electron. Or are you using Windows?

Lol Lemmy socialists are so butthurt. Your statement is literally most reasonable and sane/rational, but lemmy.ml only knows cringey extremism.

Ur mum

The first part is at best controversial. The middle part is actually reasonable. And the last part is just ridiculously random and out-of-touch.

Well it’s the training of LLMs that consumes so much energy, simply using them (for say software development purposes) (inference) probably takes less power than recompiling your Gentoo.

You got me excited there for a minute! Though I don’t really want workarounds (they are the only way and therefore a necessity / automatically good, but they are not the real thing), I want virtual keyboards with actual native Wayland support, please :(

That’s because you do not understand the philosophy. We are not using GNU/Linux because it is easier, we’re using them out of idealism. In my opinion, it is worth sacrificing some comfort for the thing you believe in. And ultimately, every GNU/Linux user also leads to an increase in freedom for all the others, even the Windows or OS X evangelists profit from the hard work and lobbyism of the Linux community and the Free Software Foundation.
