its a different os in the survey, real arch linux is really this popular.
honestly, linux native games often run worse than windows binaries through proton and dxvk. game developers really only need to get the anti cheat working, if there is any and fix potential issues.
not all leftist are the same, I can say with pretty high confidence that despite mostly being real leftist very few lemmy.blahaj.zone users support the current government of north korea

i use vi mode in zsh for that reason, its pretty good
rm
is part of GNU or busybox though.
Who needs that pesky kernel and bloated bootloader anyway?
The issue isn’t that they don’t bother rewriting it to compile to AMD64, but that they’d have to rewrite it for ARM and Metal for basically no real payoff since OS X isn’t a popular gaming platform.
There are a couple of issues with Mint, the biggest one by far, in my opinion, is the slow update schedule, anything more than 6 months really isn’t usable for the desktop, this leads to a reliance on Flatpak and the inability to compile and use a lot of packages. The second biggest issue is Cinnamon, it’s outdated, very restrictive, lacks a lot of important features, and is generally ugly (in my opinion of course) you can’t even really change the default desktop since the others ones are extremely outdated in the repos. It’s still ok to use but just not very compelling beyond it’s similarities to Windows when compared to other distros.
I’d generally say that the non-immutable spins of Fedora are way nicer to use due to the larger repos and newer packages. You also don’t really lose anything on Fedora that you’d get on Mint, you still have a GUI package manager and installer so even new users can use it intuitively.
Not just the US.
I do not want a distro with garbage pre installed, you have the choice to not use Arch, it is the “CLI choice.”
What’s the deal with Arch/CLI/“complicated” linux distro hate? GUIs generally suck more than CLI/TUI tools. If Arch distributed an official GUI installer ISO, nobody would ever use it; the ISO would be huge compared to its current size and the archinstall TUI is the best installer I’ve come across so far. Just stop being afraid of the terminal.
Debian also doesn’t come with a GUI package manager as far as I’m aware.
Also stop shilling Linux Mint to new users. Fedora, OpenSUSE TW, Debian, Ubuntu, and I’d even say Clear Linux are all more attractive operating systems to use for anyone who switches over. Cinnamon is just not as good as the alternatives and if you’re not using Cinnamon, you might as well use Debian.
the mint gui package manager is ok
really depends on what you call proprietary
