Honestly I'm kind of excited for the infrastructure as code tools. I think it is only going to get easier to customize a install quickly.

Sorry, the best I can do is busybox as init.

[-] devfuuu@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

Lol no.

Only 5 distros exist: Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, RHEL/Fedora, and built it yourself.

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 7 points 6 months ago

  • Debian or Debian based

  • Ubuntu based

  • Fedora and atomic distros

  • Arch

  • Bonus: Nix

Extra:

  • Linux Mint

  • Bazzite

Do you count openSuSE as rhel? Also mint is just Ubuntu, and Ubuntu is not Debian because Ubuntu has more up to date drivers software and what not.

Yep, your talent can be used elsewhere. Whether it's a new program or contributions to open spurce

This post and comments create a whirlwind of emotion. What do I believe!?

[-] WuceBrillis@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I don't really get this distro thing.

So it is basically just like choosing which app to access reddit with, except that if i choose the wrong app i might be auto-banned from a lot of the subs?

Also, i won't see stuff i am searching for sometimes, because the distros sometimes make trouble if someone else hasn't already subscribed? Or is that only on mastodon?

I am using Voyager, and chose lemm.ee for no apparent reason. But so far, it just feels like a shittier version of reddit but with better mods? I dunno.

Edit: turns out i was indeed confused.

  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
