Hey /g/ what is your opinion on RemixOS?
My brother's laptop went borked and I was thinking of putting it on there. Is it secure and what not? If he puts personal information on it will other people get access on it? Is it ok for a daily driver?
If not I'll just put mint on it.

this
Every thread ive ever seen about this shit is actual shilling.
Or op posts arent shills, but the replies are.
Fuck off
That being said, if you want "muh material design" install something like galliumos or papyros
Or just rice out xfce
Remix is a shitty, buggy, resource hogging hipster os installed onto shitty chinkbooks by hipsters for douchepoints

I just want an os that any retard can use. You don't have to be an asshole.
Also you have no proof of fucking shilling so shut up
>>57918226
>getting all defensive
Fuck outa here
Any god danm pre packaged linux distro is the same shit
Any fucktard that can figure out how to use google can use the shit
Every time with these threads
"Hey /g/ whats your opinion on remixos"
"Hey /g/, have you tried remix os?"
"Hey /g/, have you heard of remix os?"
Its shilling, its painfully obvious shilling, every time its posted both here and on 8/tech/ its one of the same three pictures and same starting posts

It's android for pc
I actually think Remix could be the beginning of a new OS future. People nowadays are accustomed to using their phones, so having a free OS that looks and acts like their phones is probably going to become wildly popular.

Unless it gets preinstalled on machines nobody will use it
The only reason linux in general has a market share is people who cang afford windows, buy refurb conputers and chromebooks

remix is garbage, if your boyfriend needs an operating system install windows on it or mint.
>>57918696
he's not my boyfriend REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>57917693
Encryption doesn't work on Remix OS.

That's the thing though, it can be preinstalled for free, so companies will be able to sell computers for a much lower price than were they to have Windows preinstalled. If people see that they can continue using their phone's OS on a pc for a much lower price, I can see people jumping all over that.
OP here just installing mint. He can figure it out if he has trouble
