I found out that xubuntu spams users including me, which to me is a no go.
I’m looking for a linux based ad free distro that lets me work with libreoffice, vlc, tbb, transmission, okular, pdfarranger, hexchat, gimp and ocr.
I’m going to use it to edit text, watch movies, download multimedia, chat and edit audio with audacity.
it’s not going to be a server and I’d like to work with the terminal as much as possible. At the same time, I’m a newbie.
Who needs stable anyway. We all should just use Arch. (Not an excuse Ubuntu showing ads)
Edit: this is a joke
Stable means randomly cut off package updates.
Continuous testing and integration is the best way for normal usage. With the iterations “bleeding edge” “fresh” “slightly tested” and “tested”
I disagree
Fedora works way better than Arch ever will and requires much less upkeep
So if one wanted to run Arch but were of a similar opinion to you, then they could run Manjaro, which is also a semi-rolling release distro. It’s just on the monthly cadence.
Everyone has their opinions on distros. Doesn’t mean any one opinion is wrong.
Yes but Fedora is semi-rolling, something in the middle. This is about Ubuntu LTS, a traditional LTS version that cuts off packages on some random version.
This should really only be done if
Ubuntu is trying to do 2. but have this separation in there to get money.
I would use Debian way before I would use Ubuntu. If 3 years of support isn’t enough I would use something RHEL
This is the way.
Apparently I need a /s
I mean, I did get the joke.
