Triggered by what? I know my OS is shit, I never even denied that.

What I did was point out how retarded you have to be to think using an operating system literally subsidized by the US government makes you smarter than anyone.

give me one good reason why I should use debian over arch.

It's made by competent, serious people and is used by not only hobbyists but also professionals and big companies.

Arch is made by hobbyists for hobbyists.

>>57397638
Fedora is free, retard. That's what I was trying to tell you.

Red Hat is the one that'll cost you.

>>57397651
All tech illiterates in the world indefinitely use windows and internet explorer. Some of them also think they need to compile sources to run Linux.

>>57397622

Stability, support,and just werks out of the box.

>>57397670
What makes debian magically stable? Does it fix upstream bugs?

>>57397501
centos should be put on par with debian imo.
Not even for being a good system but for the amount of redhat contributions to gnu and Linux in general.

>>57397663
You do need to compile from sources if the program or library version you need isn't the one your distro ships. Linux users are the true cucks, as they are limited to the choices their distro maintainers have made for them, while Windows users can easily use any version of any software they want.

basically there are 2 choices

are u hardcore?
=> Arch

are u noob
=> Debian based

>>57397710
I actually work for a big multinational. No, they don't use Debian either ;)

>>57397656
You know arch has been picking up a lot of market share, right? It's hard to find reliable statistics on this, but it isn't like it is some "unheard of" distro. It doesn't see as much share of the server market as debian, but it does get server use.

What makes the devs less competent than debian?

>>57397670
just werks on my machine ;) Debian installer had issues with sourcing the files.

>>57397675
>Such as?
Such as any program or library that exists?

Also, protip: if you use "restart options" on that screen, you can easily postpone the restart to any time you want ;) Of course technology impared people that don't even know why would you need a different version of a program or library wouldn't know that.

I agree with Ubuntu but that's just crazy talk. It's absolutely utter tripe, the only reason some fucktards (like you, OP) rate it is because m-muh linus uses it

Are you downloading Fedora from China?

>>57397501
You forgot employed tier: Red Hat
Debian would also be under that category.

Not Linux but so would Solaris.

>>57397660
Even then you're paying for support, not the distro.

>>57397501
OpenSUSE is a better distro for desktops than Fedora and even Arch, though its docs are worse than Arch's. Tumbleweed is the only rolling release distro with automatic OpenCV-based tests that ensure your GUI doesn't break.

I use it on my work PC but theres no way in hell we'd ever run it on anything in production.

>>57397558
Macos doesn't "just work" if you actually have to work with it. It's incredibly badly designed and full, and I mean FULL of bugs. Incredible how this piece of shit has that reputation

Fucking idiot

>>57398229

You sure don't. One day you may though, remember those firm handshakes!

How do you guys feel about Antergos? It cuts out a lot of Arch autism while allowing you to still use the Arch repositories.

>>57397558
Windows is ten times more expensive than OS X, you retard.

This is why Arch users are the worst. I'm surprised you didn't bring up "knowing how your system works".

>>57397501
Ubuntu and Mint are 98%+ identical, so how the fuck can they be so far apart on your dumb list?

>>57397501
You can't /thread your own thread.

Saged reported and hidden.

>>57397651
Just use Ubuntu or Debian if you don't wanna fuck around configuring shit

>>57397690
Except Windows users also have to compile open source software if a binary isn't hosted for download. Closed source software stops supporting old hardware/versions of windows so you don't have any semblance of more choice than Linux users

>>57400267
Consider a person who looks for a laptop to surf and do shopping while watching TV. You can get windows ones for <300 for that. Sure you could get some laptop without an OS for even cheaper, but normies ain't gonna want to install one. Anyway it's much cheaper than Apple shit

>>57400598
>Consider a person who looks for a laptop to surf and do shopping while watching TV.
Ipad with Apple pay system. You don't know very many normies do you?

\setlength{\thread}{300posts}

>>57400222
It's pretty decent.

>>57400624
Still more expensive
>You don't know very many normies do you?
Actually I know a lot of normies, but not a single one of them has Apple products. I know 3 people who even have a tablet and those are shitty Samsung ones.

>>57397834
Gentoo saves the day

Linux newbie here. I have installed mint on an old laptop and linux seems like too much of a mess to do something decent with it. Still Windows lags so it cant be helped I guess.

But mint feels unstable. I was going to install ubuntu/lubuntu but is it the same shit as mint? Still I need to use this old laptop so I need a "just werks" linux distro.
Any recommendations please?

>>57397501

>>57403069
>feels unstable
What the fuck does this even mean? Do things crash? Do they not crash? Or do you just "feel like" they're going to crash?

>>57403145
I put the laptop into sleep mode and when it wakes up I can't bring the desktop on screen as it just lags on a black screen. I reset it.
Also accesibilty doesn't work. I needed virtual keyboard one time and it didn't work. I installed florence instead.
There kinda shit makes me think it is unstable.
I have been using mint for like a week and I don't know if more shit like these will come up later.

Also I messed up desktop manager today and still couldn't bring it back to normal.
Such pain.

Do your hibernate or suspend when you close the lid? It is more stable if it does the former.
