I was never distro-hopping much. Switched from Debian only when I got a job with Red Hat, and then switched to openSUSE when I switched to SUSE. I have actually switched recently to my own semi-distro https://sr.ht/~mcepl/moldavite/ (basically MicroOS with sway).

Eh? Both pandoc and rst2epub can generate eBooks. All those lightweight markup languages are especially awesome for converting into various output formats.

Discuss it with https://lemmy.world/post/12126335

I think you have arguments about MicroOS (or Silberblue, which I know less about, and possibly Nix, which I know nothing about, and it seems to me it is not in the same group) wrong. Take a look at this https://youtu.be/lKYLF1tA4Ik.

Not vim necessarily, but I would really suggest thinking about a plain text editor of your choice and some of those lightweight markup languages (Markdown itself, reStructuredText, ASCIIDoc … I prefer rST, but they are mostly the same). Exactly because it allows me to concentrate on the content and ignore formatting. Besides, formatting, do you write for print or as everybody else these days for HTML? Why do you need a large word processor which is build primarily for preparing documents for print? Every serious text editor has some kind of plugins with spellcheckers, grammar checkers, dictionaries, etc.

Mimic is by far the best I was able to find from FLOSS TTS software.

I am on MicroOS-based distro, so all my GUI applications are from Flatpak. I don’t see any difference from more traditional distro, it just works.

Actually sadly remember python-docs provided as info document.

that as it’s my daily driver anyways.

That is in my opinion the most important one.

You don’t need a dotfile manager, you need proper backups.

Lightweight distro for a server is nonsense, IMHO. All major distros are made to work as a server (enterprise ones are made primarily for servers), so whichever one you use currently, use it. Debian, Fedora, openSUSE, Arch, whatever.

Talking about unpopular, I have just created fork of the project Greybeard (MicroOS+Sway) called “Moldavite” (meteorite induced explosion near Nürnberg caused a lot of gems falling on the ground in Bohemia, if it is not a symbol of the cooperation inside of SUSE, then I don’t know what would be ;)). The main project site is https://sr.ht/~mcepl/moldavite/ and OBS project is https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:mcepl:moldavite . Whereas, as I understand it, Greybeard is at least for the moment more or less on the back burner, I hope to continue to work on this.

People who can use them effectively tend to be a way faster with the regular admin work. Also, they can do some things which are not that simple on the command line (browse through tarball, browse through remote directories).

Because X’s janitor budget for lunch is better than their whole budget.

I am trying to help with vis and it is a lot of fun to use. Aside from things where I really need neovim (because of large plugins), I use vis every day. Sam and ACME (and whole Plan9 for that matter) have the biggest problem with being too GUI oriented. They are from times when we discovered a mouse and then decided we need to use it for everything. Thirty years down the line we know better: we don’t.

Please, don’t use subjects like “I love this”. Please.

It turned out to be a lot more complicated https://github.com/JimmXinu/FanFicFare/issues/985 and not at all a Flatpak fault.

My answer is “No”. Don’t do distro-hopping. It is only waste of time and distraction from actually learning Linux properly. Concerning BTRFS (and I write it as a user of openSUSE which has been supporting it for the longest time), I am absolutely certain that Debian can use it as well as any other distro. Just don’t do the distro-hopping.

Don’t. That is to distro hop.

Yes, I am a long time openSUSE user (heck, I am a SUSE employee!), but the difference between various distros is truly minimal. Yes, openSUSE has Yast, but aside from that it is really very similar to any other distribution. Instead of spending time on distro hoping, just sit on your behind and learn to resolve your issues with your current distribution.
