  • Mint is often the most recommended distro, because whatever you may need to do in it, it tends to be easy-ish to figure out.

    But these days I would strongly recommend in favor of some immutable distro like Bluefin/Aurora or Silverblue/kinoite. Instead of being easy to figure out how to do things on them, they make it so you won’t need to, ever.

    It’s a complete paradigm shift and it might not be for everyone, but in the decades I’ve been using Linux for, I had never had such a smooth experience with any distro. Everything just works and you don’t need to think about the OS anymore.

    However it won’t easily fit with some of the requirements you listed.




  • It’s a much bigger problem when you speak multiple languages and leave them all enabled in the keyboard. When writing a simple comment like this, I fuck up the typing of one out of every 5-10 words on average and auto correct fixes them for me. In some other contexts like replying to a work message, it is auto correct who fucks up that often.

    One day, out of the blue, I thought: “I should follow that guy who created Javascript”. A few weeks go by and soon I’m wondering “why the hell are there so many antivax posts on my timeline?”

    Was quite a surprise seeing that he was all in on the antivax stuff. I then unfollowed him and haven’t used any of his products since.
