What would make you change distro? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] Drito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

I'm attracted by Alpine Linux, but it lacks an official way to use glibc for the programs that unfortunately use some glibc extension...

Any window manager suggestion in c/linux@lemmy.ml

I never encountered bugs, but I don't use multiple monitors.

I3/Sway seems to be popular, but I was disapointed when I tried them. I prefer Bspwm because windows are always spawned with a good height/width ratio. Computers are useful because of the automation capability, so it make no sense to use a WM without any automation.

Use Vivarium instead, it works and it is very featured !

Why doesn't the Linux subreddit leave Reddit already? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] Drito@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Reddit is unified, Lemmy has a small layer of complexity on top and "sh.itjust.works" is a weird name, maybe the Lemmy system drives to such complicated names. Its not a big deal but I add that to the other causes.

Is KDE actually good or it is overrated? Or I was just unlucky because of prebuilt distros? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Look at the reddit called "unixporn" and search for Xfce. You ll see what's possible with Xfce. For me the KDE crashes are a dealbreaker. My Xfce setup is so simplified, that nothing can be ugly. I use Bspwm for the windows and stripped down Xfce panel (dont touch third party status bars, such as polybar, its waste of time if you already have Xfce). No menu such as Whisker menu, but Rofi instead. I got Xfce stability without the old looking.

Why do you use the distro you use? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] Drito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

After tried Alpine, NixOS, Archlinux...finally Im on MX linux because this is a no brain distro and I'm tired to search how to make things to work.

Best (preferably offline) HTML viewer? Minimal resources? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

You can also use a light browser such as Qutebrowser.

If you are in sciences, and happy to learn a new PL, I think you ll enjoy functional programming, even if it is not the most popular way. https://ocaml.org/docs/is-ocaml-gui-yet

The website looks cool.

If you have to pick only one Desktop Environment and use it till your computer breaks, what would you choose? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] Drito@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago (3 children)

There is nothing better than Xfce, if you dont like the desktop, at least Xfce allows you to customize. KDE seems interesting, but the last time i tried it, 10 years ago more or less, it was a bit buggy.

Ubuntu explores replacing gnu utils with rust based uutils in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] Drito@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

I prefer a glibc replacement.

Is it safe to use a ghost Arch derivative ? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Hello, Archlabs is gone . I use this distro so I wonder If I can still update it safely ?

My /etc/pacman.conf

#[testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[core]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[extra]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#[community-testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[community]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# The multilib repositories are enabled by default in ArchLabs.
# If you don't run 32 bit applications you may comment them out

#[multilib-testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[multilib]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# [archlabs-testing]
# Server =  https://pub-7d84e047b852442a86fd6d7feb1ff2cd.r2.dev/$repo/$arch
# Server =  https://github.com/ArchLabs/$repo/raw/master/$arch
# Server =  https://bitbucket.org/archlabslinux/$repo/raw/master/$arch

[archlabs]
Server = https://pub-7d84e047b852442a86fd6d7feb1ff2cd.r2.dev/$repo/$arch
Server = https://bitbucket.org/archlabslinux/$repo/raw/master/$arch
Server = https://github.com/ArchLabs/$repo/raw/master/$arch
Server = https://sourceforge.net/projects/archlabs-repo/files/$repo/$arch

If it is unsafe how I can turn this into a normal arch ?
