Nah, that’s a preconfigured distro.
Definitely Not GustavoM. :^)
Nah, that’s a preconfigured distro.
Not really a “anti malware” per se, but you can always set up a separate linux device (like a orange pi zero 3) and set it up as a network ad blocker with nextdns (which apparently it can be (also) a “anti malware” – which I haven’t tested if it is legit or not, but eh.).
For me, arm has already “won” this debacle – convenience > performance all day errday.
To use (and enjoy) Linux properly, you’ve got to “unlearn” several things including the bad habit of expect everything to “just werk”. If you are expecting to “double click your cares away” on Linux, then it’s (very) likely you’ll be disappointed.
With that aside, your best bet is to go for Linux Mint and not Arch Linux.
tl;dr:
dnf list installed > $anydir/meow
On new computer, with fedora installed and the meow file;
dnf install $(cat $anydir/meow)
No love for the aarch64 eh?
Aw, dangit.
You are in an environment where the downvote button exists as a self-validation/relief method rather than flagging off-topic/unrelated/low-effort/etc content as “bad”.
The majority are simpletons which (also) love simple stuff. That’s why.
For when you are running an “obscure” distro and/or sbc (like say, dietpi and orange pi zero 3).
A “ez” solution would be simply stay on Windows and leave Linux as a novelty. A somewhat complicated solution – double booting (apparently Windows can be a privacy nightmare even while dual-booting). A quite hard one would be installing Linux and running Windows on a VM with GPU passthrough. The “are you bleeping kidding me?” approach would be buying another PC just to run Linux while leaving your “main” PC for Windows.
“Is there a sane approach for this?” – yep, there is! Which is, buying a console and use it solely for gaming while leaving your main PC for daily browsing and everything else (i.e Linux).
I’ve got a rpi 4 w/ 2 GiB of ram and it runs fine.
1- Clone this repo: https://github.com/NicoD-SBC/armbian-gaming
2- Run armbian-gaming.sh
3- Choose “install retropie”
4- Run “emulationstation” after installing
Orange pi zero 3 is arm-based and can be really viable for daily usage if you are into tinkering.
In a serious tone:
Attempt to do a minimal yet optimized install instead of a standard one while making it fully functional.
I use both nano and vim, so eh
I’m typing this on my rpi 4 w/ 2GiB (with three tabs open on my brave browser w/ also a youtube video playing on the background) and its good enough as is for daily tasks.
Is it possible to use Linux without the command line? Yes. Should you do it? Definitely not.
A contrarian take, but nextdns. It may not block youtube ads, but eeeh it works really well for most cases.
It may feel tasty and great today… but it (definitely) won’t feel great as much in the future. Have some respect on yourself and drink something healthy instead – there are better ways to have fun than that.
That aside, Debian can be very user friendly just like any other distro – I say go for it.
