Mason Pines<p>I'm about to move to a laptop rather than my desktop, in the runup to a house move.</p><p>Today, I run <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Debian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Debian</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Stable" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Stable</span></a> (<a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/bookworm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookworm</span></a>) and the <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/XFCE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>XFCE</span></a> desktop.

Be that underlying <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/distro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>distro</span></a> or desktop.</p><p>I have tried many times to move away from <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Debian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Debian</span></a>. But the stability of stable is difficult to argue with. I have also tried many different desktops.

Laurie 🏳️⚧️ (he/him)<p>My nerd moment lately: having moved to Nextcloud and LibreOffice, I now have a much stronger usecase for using Linux in my day-to-day. I have installed Mint Xfce on a tiny shitty laptop (I'm talking 2gb RAM and 30gb SSD shitty) and I tweaked the settings using a guide, and I think it could really do the job for working on documents while out and about. I'm planning to just use it for editing documents via Nextcloud, and light web browsing. <br><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/foss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>foss</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/xfce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>xfce</span></a></p>
Dark Photon Studio<p>I have the feeling a lot of <a href="https://metalhead.club/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> users don't "get" <a href="https://metalhead.club/tags/manjaro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>manjaro</span></a>. I'll try to explain, for myself anyway. I'm an advance Linux user, but I'd never call myself a guru. I'm not an IT or CS guy. My main interest is, and always has been, to get away from <a href="https://metalhead.club/tags/windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>windows</span></a>. I've learned enough to break things, and maybe not end up formatting the drive and reinstalling. It offers just enough customisation to make it my own (in my case, <a href="https://metalhead.club/tags/xfce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>xfce</span></a>) Because it's a rolling release, the <a href="https://metalhead.club/tags/software" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>software</span></a> is up-to-date but also lags a week behind <a href="https://metalhead.club/tags/Arch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Arch</span></a>, which is fine by me. And at this point, it works for me, I've learned its quirks, and don't want to hop to something else.</p>
