    Well now I regret using EndeavorOS - this is clearly a superior OS.

    Well, I was thinking of moving to Linux full-time anyway now that my Windows install is obsolete. Any reason to avoid this distro? Past experience is with Ubuntu, Gentoo, and SuSE. I mostly game.

    Serious answer? It's a meme distro seemingly maintained by a single person, so the odds of the project being abandoned and you having to migrate in the very near future are extremely large. Better to stick to one of the bigger distros unless you have good reasons to choose a smaller one specifically.

    [–] chronicledmonocle@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (5 children)

    Stick with something better known. Linux Mint, Fedora, openSUSE, Arch, Ubuntu.....If you're just getting into this for the first time, full time, a niche meme distro is not your best choice.

    Linux Mint is best for stability, but will be a bit more "stale" for updates, since it's based on Ubuntu LTS. It is an incredible distro and is my daily driver for mission critical desktops, like my work PC.

    Fedora and openSUSE Tumbleweed will both be great non-Arch distros that have fairly recent, yet stable updates.

    Arch is basically the king of rolling, bleeding edge, always on the latest and greatest, but since it's bleeding edge.....you might get cut on occasion.

    Ubuntu is Ubuntu. I don't like Ubuntu, but it is the defacto "newbie/first timer" distro for a reason. Debian-based, lots of guides, both LTS and non-LTS options, and has variants for practically every major desktop environment out there.

    Gaming is really good on bazzite.

    [–] grysbok@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 1 month ago

    Y'all have some good points. What I'm hearing is "install it on a fresh hard drive, play around, then move on to something more stable."

    [–] Turret3857@infosec.pub 7 points 1 month ago

    generally speaking its safer to go with larger well known distros as smaller ones tend to die off.

    You used to have to add those things manually... Now these newbies can either use archinstall or just install this?! What is Arch coming to...

    My Cachy OS broke today, so I just switched to Pika OS. I wish I had heard about this a few hours ago.

    If you call it "morbid fascination," you can run it and still pretend to be disgusted.

    [–] cepelinas@sopuli.xyz 13 points 1 month ago

    Fair point.

    [–] LettyWhiterock@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

    Ny'all better start nyusing Nyarch :3c

    God I love meme distros

    I installed it a week or so ago.. it was alright. Didn't care much for the DE animations, switched back to Mint the same day. Good for the lulz (and on-demand waifu pics).

    I got excited thinking it was a furry distro for a sec πŸ˜”πŸ˜”πŸ˜”

    [–] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    I have good news for you. All Linux distros are furry distros.

    [–] chronicledmonocle@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    And LGBTQ+ distros.

    And socialist distros.

    And.....

    [–] kautau@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    Is RHEL really any of those? Or like Amazon Linux? They’re technically open source but still gross

    That's a good point.

    Don't let your memes be dreams

    [–] maxwells_daemon@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    It's the thing non-rolling releases use to demarc major package update dumps.
