just wondering
Arch, btw
I use Arch btw.
On Lemmy most will say Linux.
OpenSUSE Tumbleweed in my case.

Ik i dont wanna go back to reddit so yeah
Well, looking at the comments I’m not so sure about that anymore… more like Linux as well.
4 or 5 Windows users and I think none exclusively. Guess they were among the first, because now there are at least 10 Linux exclusives.
Same. It just keeps chugging along whatever I throw at it, so I stick with it.
I’m waiting to see what my main machine will do when I’ll finally get to bring it back online and it finds it has 1 1/2 or 2 years of updates to install though 🤔.
Make sure you update the mirror list and repository keys first, then read Arch news and do whatever they say needs manual intervention since your last update. Then you can update everything from the core repo and finally the AUR. Don’t reboot until you’re done with all the steps.
Also might be a good idea to read through https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/System_maintenance for additional considerations.
I think I’ll just
zypper dupand let it figure stuff out by itself as I tend to trust it to work.But thanks all the same.
oops I thought this was about Arch.
Yeah, just do zypper dup.
me too. tumbleweed is great
Manjaro Linux. It has treated me well for two years. (Yes, I know about the controversy, I have had no problems with the distro for the last two years).
Same here, sometimes I feel actual shame, which is ridiculous, but it works for me and hasn’t let me down so far in the past years
I have used Manjaro at work and on personal devices for maybe 10 years and it has served me well. When I got a new computer this year, I saw many recommending EndeavourOS instead, so I decided to use that instead. I don’t understand the controversy to be honest … endeavour is a-ok, but Manjaro was more stable imho, and if I have to do it again I might go back to Manjaro.

Windows 11
I’m one of the few people who genuinely thinks it’s a good OS despite MS’ shenanigans
Blocked and reported /s
I just get bothered that even on very modern tech my CPU is under load even when idle in Win11 such that the fan is spooling up. I’m convinced they’re sneaking distributed AI compute into personal PCs. Doesn’t happen on my Linux install.
That Bitcoin ain’t gonna mine itself
Clearly a bot.
Move along humans, no brain to engage with here. Let them sit in their ignorance while the real people get on with things.
TempleOS
LOL
I use arch btw.
manaro chan pfp lol
you’re the first one to notice it lol
I watch mental outlaw and he used that same character in your pfp
That explains it
yep
Everything runs Debian
Fedora
same
Pop!_os
EndeavourOS at home, Ubuntu at work
Linux mint
Same
itt: the question linux users love
ngl i wonder what is the popular os
I use Windows 3.1
Because of the limitations, I hired someone to create a program that yells letters and characters individually one by one on a text based browser.
It may sound tedious but I refuse to upgrade explanation mark explanation mark explanation markbruhhh
Debian. I distro-hopped a lot but I always return to it. It’s like a kit you can turn into anything you want. As stable, bleeding edge, minimal or full-featured as you want, for all kinds of devices, with great third-party support and documentation.
Currently I run a minimal, stable Gnome system with a newer kernel from backports and Flatpaks for my apps.
The only thing it isn’t good at is immutability and filesystem snapshots. Both are possible to set up, but it’s an involved process, and I’d rather depend on regular backups.The only thing it isn’t good at is immutability and filesystem snapshots.

Is it? I guess you need mutable + persistant mount for /var and one for /home. /tmp is already tmpfs by default. All you then have to do is make the other mount points ro in your fstab.
And how do you then run apt upgrade?
(The answer is to write a script that mounts / rw, runs the upgrade, then mounts it ro again. But figuring out the edge cases isn’t something I want to get into.)
This is part of the maintenance. The workflow here would differ depending on numerous factors. An automated update sounds like a bad idea.
All I was saying is that setting debian up for immutability is more straightforward. How you maintain the os from there should already be known to someone opting into it.
