I've been trying to figure out a way to get my two LUKS encrypted drives to unlock by using a yubikey on boot.

I’m also realising this rabbit hole with every second I spend on Lemmy. Hell I was reading up on arch at 2 am last night when I couldn’t get to sleep….

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Honestly I would skip Arch and just use something like Fedora or Debian. Arch is way over rated. You can build a Arch like system out of anything.

[–] bitfucker@programming.dev 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, but the difference is quite huge IMHO. Arch philosophy is user centric so it is deliberately minimal because then it is up to you what to add instead of having to remove something to get what you want.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You can do that with any distro really

"Minimal" is such a weird concept to focus on in 2025. What are are you going for? Low ram usage?

[–] bitfucker@programming.dev 1 points 2 months ago

Yes, but as I said the way to get there is different. With a minimalistic approach you add stuff that you know you want. With the default approach you either remove stuff that you may not know yet if it was a part of something else that you want/need, or you just let it be.

Minimal concept in 2025 is not weird at all. It's a preference really. I just prefer my system to be as minimal as possible (not necessarily small mind you). The same reason why I setup my VSCode plugins to be disabled except to enable the needed plugins at different workspaces. So I will not be distracted by something that I do not use.

I’m using Ubuntu across a few devices atm. All the arch memes and the sleeplessness just drove me to go find out what the fuss was all about.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Don't you get annoyed by snap?

[–] 1luv8008135@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

So far only because of Firefox. Get everything else off apt

[–] SatanClaus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

CachyOS or EndeavourOS are good arch spins if you choose to be insane.

Start with something like mint and works your way to other distros.

You should be able to live boot mint to see how it runs before committing to installing.

Been using Ubuntu for a bit but mint does sound like a good next step if I decide to swap.
