LOL, did they? It wouldn’t surprise me. I remember there was some internal in-fighting going down, someone got accused of stealing funds, buying a personal laptop. Drama aside, it is a dangerous Arch derivative that is highly promoted, especially for newbies. Sad.

I NEVER recommend Manjaro. They hold back packages for “security/stability” reasons which is antithetical to Arch’s structure. This can cause stability issues (happened to me) and even breaking your system.

I would recommend Arch, EndeavourOS or Garuda (awesome KDE gaming ed,) and a lot of peeps like CachyOS, mostly for their customized kernels/CPU optimizations. You can get CachyOS kernels inside of Garuda as well.

I installed it using Lutris under Arch, no issues and looks fantastic. I haven’t played much yet, created my character mostly. I had to let the shaders do their thing with initial setup, so we will see if I get any stutter in the open world.

P/S, just checked Nexus Mods and there is already 900+ mods for Oblivion Remastered? I may have to spend some time modding.

Don’t you xKill my PRECIOUS!

Sounds like you are new to linux? I always recommend newbies start out with Ubuntu or Linux Mint. Ubuntu has a good installer with scripts that detect hardware, particularly older or fringe (wifi, etc) hardware. Is it the best? Not in my opinion, but you want your laptop to work and educate yourself on linux in the beginning. Once you are a moderate to advance user, switch to Arch, it is the best imo.

I use CalyxOS so completely degoogled because everything passes through microG. I have the following;

• Phone (CalyxOS)
• Quik (texting)
• Fennec (Firefox w security)
• Thunderbird
• Google Pixel Camera app, firewalled, and any services go through microG

I think it depends on the distro, some have it as a dependency of their whatever, but should not be a problem on minimal install distro’s or pure Arch itself.

Agree. To its credit, it made the transition smooth.

Agree!

The Hannah Montana Linux distribution?

Sadly, Ubuntu. I quickly moved on to debian…and ultimately landed with Arch, my true love for many years. I use Arch, btw.

It is the censoring, from the top down. That is like a brick wall on reddit that will hit anyone in no time.

Best summation EVER!

She did it and so did Gale King. The only good thing about this whole narcissistic, class-based, photo op ordeal was this meme. The best part is that they trained together for what, 8 months? They spend almost 3 minutes of their 4 minutes in space taking selfies of each other and playing with their devices. I guess they got their $100k a piece worth of PR.

Long, LONG, time linux user here, but to answer your question, most general users don’t tinker. They want it to ‘just work,’ which is why Apple, and to a lesser extent Windows, has dumbed everything down and made it proprietary (beyond just the locked in money thing) so users don’t have to think. Plus, support is a big money maker, for the corporations anyway.

EndeavourOS doesn’t add anything to Arch performance, it is basically a minimal install of arch with their theming included, which you can opt out of during install. But, to each his own.
