you just woke up, but already up for violence?That's the attitude i respect

damn bro, you didn't have to call out me like that

Well, i mean, if mint works for you, its perfect! My suggestions come from my personal experience, demands and regrets, so be ware that they might not suit you, though i believe that one should try everything.

Welcome aboard! I did same like a year before, and it's been a blast!

If you were me from the past, I would've definitely recommended you to try out tiling WMs (Guess AwesomeWM is a good start) ASAP! I can't stress enough how good they're, especially if you prefer using keyboard shorcuts over mouse navigation.

Also, if you'll find linux mint problematic, I want to suggest you to try out EndeavourOS (i wish i would've done it sooner myself). It's installation is as simple, but it's based on arch, and arch has one of the most comprehensive wikis, which allows you to troubleshoot basically any problem. Also. newer software versions get there faster, and finally AURs, that will allow you to forget about manual software installation at all.

Ah yes, the fabled 'Task succeded failurely'

if i were to guess, i'd say that for people it's not a problem with those hobbies in particular, but rather with the fact that the question implies you to say the most exciting things you do in a free time, therefore if you answer "anime and playing games" they consider you boring and uninitiative.

disgusting

it's funny how there's this kind of meme for every eastern-european contry. It's not funny that i live in one, but still yet to meet a cute feminine boy:(

guess, you sould've kept your joke a bit simpler, stupider even :D

That's why i said "arch-based" not "arch". I don't know about manjaro actually, lots of people on the internet complained how broken it is (or rather was broken, idk), so i decided not to try it. But i've tried and am currently running EndeavourOS. The installation process is as easy as the one of Ubuntu, while OS remains stable, despite me using AURs and manually compiled packages. AURs are far more friendly compared to PPAs. Not to mention the fact that i wasn't always able to find the package i needed among PPAs, and manual compilation often did not work due to Ubuntu's update model.

I don't quite understand, what do you mean by "KISS is not available via pacman", so please, elaborate. To me pacman is as simple to use as apt.

Also, didn't know SteamOS is already available for public, good to know. Gonna try it some day.

what are the usecases for snaps and flatpaks in the home desktop environment anyway? What are their benefits? Isolation?
