Probably got put on their radar by people complaining about the Chinese gacha game being too popular or something. Those same people complain much less about their manly sports/shooting games made in the good ol’ United States of 'Murica. Even though they have similar predatory mechanics.
Also FitGirl. Often she repacks DODI’s repacks, but makes them much smaller for those with slow connections or limited bandwidth.
Keep an eye on this page to stay up to date with Switch emulators.
I’m honestly not too worried. At least he has a good idea of what he’s doing.
Absolutely agree with that. He does have a lot of experience dealing with right to repair and all that so here’s hoping he knows how to handle it correctly.
Spread the word if you can. The more eyes this can reach, the better it will be for everyone.
I have no idea really. I just wanted to get the word out. The more people that know about this and help, the better it will become.
One hopes so. For her own sake if nothing else.
Honestly, the server runs pi-hole, which I wanna switch for Adguard Home at some point, and Syncthing. Really not much running, but if Docker makes it easier to update and manage I want to learn how it works.
But yes, I do want new and shiny. Just because it’s a very simple home setup that doesn’t have to be absolutely rock-solid stable. Also helps me feel more at ease about security fixes and such.
I just want to learn to use it to make my home server easier to manage. But your use case does make perfect sense.
Also a valid point. I still want to try Docker at some point, but I haven’t really needed it yet.
That’s awesome. While I don’t share your love for Debian, I’m glad it exists. Without it, we wouldn’t have Ubuntu or Mint or a ton of other choices.
It’s also amazing that it works, as-is, for some people. More options just means more possibilities for people to find something that works for them and that’s what’s important.
Which is an excellent option if you’re okay with Debian. It’s a good OS but lacks some of the homegrown tools from the main Mint version. So, for beginners or those less inclined to tinkering I’d still recommend the main edition. Otherwise yes, Debian Edition is another great option.
In that case, I’d still recommend Mint or Mint Debian Edition unless the person knows what they want. Then Debian would be absolutely fine.
I’m sure it’s perfecly fine as a desktop OS. It’s just not for me. I prefer more up to date software, so I recommend Mint to anyone asking, but use Endeavour (Arch, BTW) myself. I finally understand why people are always singing the praises of the AUR.
Also, if I’m going to lean into Flatpak as a packaging system, I’m gonna use it as an excuse to properly try an immutable system and see how I get along with it.
Now, all of this is purely my own opinion. Other people can use and like what suits them. I’m not trying to gatekeep or be an elitist. I’m an absolute noob myself.
Fair enough, but Mint gives you the more up to date base of Ubuntu and some QoL tools that Debian doesn’t have. If you prefer Debian, then use it. I just feel Mint is better for beginners or people who want an easier time with less tinkering.
That’s fair. Personally, I use Debian for my little home server, but it’s not a desktop OS for me.
Nice thing about linux is we don’t have to agree. We’re free to use whatever we want.
Don’t forget Mint.
Mint is one of the best versions of Ubuntu you could possibly use. They give you Ubuntu without all the forced snaps and other crap.
This works on Win 10 as well.
