this is just calamares, the most used installer across the span of linux distros.

on the question of why this approach vs dedicated desktop environment installs, well, ive always wondered about the pros and cons on that too. one pro is that with a dedicated DE iso you dont need an internet connection to install it. otherwise im not sure why people would choose one or the other.

yeah snapper is brilliant, and snap is trash.

i went ahead and told you what i found distasteful about your comment. and here you are just saying nonsense and calling people names. not cool.

ive been on lemmy for 23 days. this is easily the worst comment ive seen yet.

“all companies do shady stuff like google and apple” is a wild thing to say in an opensource community.

hope you have a better day tomorrow.

no offense, but “i work in the actual world” comes off rudely dismissive, and possibly a bit narrow minded. like, how did saying that help support your argument at all, and why assume others dont exist irl?

thanks for the encouragement! so far what ive seen matches what youve said.

to be fair, theres still a lot of really good info on there, by the matter of sheer volume alone. i learned a lot about linux for instance, from reddit the last couple years. Sadly lemmy doesnt yet have the volume that would have been able to foster the same amount of learning for me. heres to hoping lemmy grows faster by the day :)

my reason-less ban feels less bad every day

i dont understand why this is a conversation. shouldnt we just have the option to turn it on and off?

check out Ly, its default is a black screen https://github.com/fairyglade/ly

incredibly unhelpful

trickles down from the base kde packages. this is simple.

it appears they may not understand rolling release, or proper grammar to describe the situation, but theres an actual answer to their question, which is anything but “not al all”.

they would still be totally wrong. it will be available for new installs the moment kde adds it to the plasma packages. their comment makes zero sense.

??? are you being serious? obviously fedorah isnt arch.

anyway, Cachy will have it the second KDE adds it to the plasma / kde-applications packages.

there is and i also think there should be.

but i would never use one or recommend doing so.

im new here bc my reddit account got banned for no reason as well. its really a shame. 6 years of info and notekeeping built up and then just stolen from me with no explanation at all.

This only makes the most sense. What other group has proven to be easier to scam? None, I’d imagine.

the title of the post and the thumbnail are bringing me a lot of joy right now

this happened to my 6 year old reddit account a couple weeks ago. i didnt break any rules that im aware of and its kinda devastating, as i use it to learn about tech and find new software. im happy to be here, and will remain active here, but it was such a valuable resource for me, and i feel like it was stolen from me.
