very glad indeed

I’ll show that mf why his life is shit lmao

It found. I did not. I am not.

For my LineageOS phone I use ADB: adb pull /sdcard/DCIM/Camera to get photos I’ve taken for example.

I started with linux begin 2019. I just use xorg so I don’t know about wayland problems. I think a long time ago nvidia broke once and I switched to nvidia-dkms and it has worked fine since until recently where a mesa update broke xorg but I don’t think that has to do with nvidia. Getting CUDA to work might be trouble though (I think I briefly tried once).

Many already have nvidia before they start with linux. I’m still on my 1060 from 2018.

TWM resize your windows automatically as you create windows or move them around. This is the key: TWM’s work best with applications that work well in a variety of sizes. Usually this means text based applications: terminals, IDE’s, browsers, chat apps, etc. GIMP for example didn’t really work well for me unless I used it on its own workspace. It comes down to this: how much of the time do you use text based applications? For me, that’s almost always. I rarely touch something that is not a terminal or a browser. For you it might be different. Good luck.

Nothing. Which is great: everything already works for me. Any improvements and extra market share is cool. But I’m vibing already.

I love that he has only 3 colours and that green is not next to yellow.

FYI, the options at boot have nothing to do with this. At boot you might have different options for different OS’s. When you pick linux, it will start up. Only after login will a DE/WM like Gnome/Nimdow start. If you install multiple WM’s, they will not show up in your boot menu. Some login managers allow you to switch between them at login.

I think he wants to dual boot tumbleweed and windows, not two linux distros.

I don’t know if you should, but you can. I use Artix for my only computer (also used for uni). It never killed itself. I did once, which was my fault. But I just fixed it.

but depending on who you ask Arch is either the most stable distro they’ve ever used or bricked their pc ten seconds into the install process

This very funny, and true. Arch is almost as stable as its user :)

Arch do argue themselves that it is the point of Arch that you configure the system yourself: https://archlinux.org/about/ Of course, one can build on top of it with different aims. Manjaro claims to be user-friendly on their homepage, but I can’t find further philosophy/about/design decisions where they explicitly state why they changed certain things.

As far as I understand only Arch packages that depend on systemd need an Artix equivalent. You should be able to enable both Artix and Arch repos and everything should be fine, you should be able to run pacman -Syu without any problems. I never had problems in the last 3 years. If you tried it more than 3 years ago it might be a different story.

Artix. I went Void -> Arch -> Artix. I can’t help but feel that Artix is what Arch should be. Perfect blend between the Arch and Void experience.

There are some DAWs like Ardour and LMMS for linux. The bigger issue is plugins. They are mostly NOT for Linux. There are some but the selection is not big. You can use a VST-bridge like Carla. It worked for me, I could use proprietary windows based VSTs in LMMS on Linux. However, I wanted to go fully FOSS. This is rather difficult. You make it sound like there are a bunch of open source plugins. This was not my experience. Especially not if you are looking for more specific things. If it is like that, shit has changed radically for the best the last two years. I had some coding projects related to music production so I would just try to build whatever I needed. But I dropped these projects unfortunately.

If you do a lot with your keyboard, it is annoying to get your hand off it and switch to your mouse. And then to switch back. If a task can also be done with the keyboard, you can just stay there and that is quite comfy.

sorry

All this time I thought that an existential crisis was having a crisis about the fact that you exist, not about the fact that you will not exist in the future.
