I’m pretty new to the whole Linux thing as well and personally, I’ve been liking ZorinOS much better than Mint. Mostly just because it’s prettier, everything else works just as well haha

Installing one distro on one laptop and then only using that laptop to figure out how to install the next distro on the other laptop! That would give me an actual goal in each distro I install too, since I’d have to get the wifi and browser working and figure out how to run that program that burns iso files onto a usb stick :0
… that would be such an entertaining youtube video concept too, I wish I was into video making haha

I actually have tried it on the bigger laptop by now and somehow Bazzite runs Sekiro more smoothly than my “Gaming” Lenovo Legion Y530 that has an actual GPU and is from around the same time ever did. 🫣 It was completely unplayable on my other Laptop… which makes me think that maybe I misconfigured it to not actually use the GPU back in the day??? I’ll have to experiment with that a bit more haha

Man I wish I could participate in the programmer socks joke, but I feel like it just doesn’t really hit the same when an afab person does it :(

Not yet, but I have seen that it is very popular on Distrowatch! :D It’s definitely in my backlog

Very reasonable in this economy!

That’s actually an awesome project and I’m coincidentally moving close to one of their locations soon :o

Well now I want to install it just to try to break it lol

That’s a neat pointer! I have been meaning to look into self-hosting anyway since my AWS free tier is running out pretty soon and I need a new place to cheaply plant down my in-development website project haha

Ooh, Nix looks interesting, I’d be down for the challenge!
