It’s fine. You can upgrade to Fedora as soon as it’s done.
I’m surprised it took 2 hours for Lemmy to recommend Linux. We’re getting sloppy
I was genuinely surprised it hadn’t been said yet.
Let the arguing about distro choice begin.
I feel like the only “good” distributions nowadays are Arch and NixOS (everywhere else, you become a construction worker every time you want a slightly niche program), while both having shitty stereotypes about users. And Arch currently only properly works on amd64. And NixOS’s model isn’t for everyone…
What’s wrong fedora? I’ve barely used it but it’s what I usually recommend to non tech savvy people, specificially the kinoite version (KDE + atomic updates).
Oh, nothing wrong with Fedora specifically. I also recommend Fedora KDE to people like this.
But, imagine you saw someone use a project somewhere online you want to try and it’s not popular enough to be in the repos. Now you have to git clone --depth 1 --recursive blah blah blah, source ~/cflags.sh, mkdir build, cd build, cmake …, make -j4…
Doesn’t sound difficult. But over time, your home directory becomes FULL of random ass git repositories. AND your /usr/local/bin is full of outdated stuff, sometimes overwriting updated stuff in /usr/bin. Having the AUR reduces that significantly.
Ackshually…
I’m not motivated to type up a response on mobile but I’m surprised there isn’t an argument comment yet. What are we coming to…
That’s a weird way to spell Manjaro!
Insane way to spell CachyOS!
Large tech companies aren’t known for their understanding of consent. Consider yourself one of the lucky ones that they actually asked you first.
“Cancel”
Right there.
At this point win 10 is discontinued, security updates have stopped haven’t they?
I get the hate for win 11 but it’s not a solution to stay at 10. You WILL get compromised.
11, Mac, or Linux. It’s an infuriating move but you have to choose, or get pwned and get your identity stolen.
massgrave.dev worked for me. I’m getting updates, most recently two days ago.
Nah, they offered the extended updates program to everyone for free for a year.
As I understand it, there will be a fee to pay this fall to stay in the program.
At this point win 10 is discontinued, security updates have stopped haven’t they?
That’s not really right. They are only discontinued for some editions, and only if you didn’t enable the extended security updates.
No, security updates for 10 continues until October on account of an EU decision.
Windows 10 and have hackers steal your identity, or Windows 11 and have MS steal your identity? It’s a real Occam’s disposable razor kind of decision
You think Microsoft didn’t get your identity in Windows 10?
