also it wasn’t invented, it manifested itself out of chaos.

So like javascript?

Its literally on poob. You can stream it on poob rn

Het!

I jumped straight from know nothing to valley of despair

Great success

I installed arch without it and it was a fucking struggle. Didn’t know it existed til after. Like actually hours after

Arch btw

Fr, I have tried but unfortunately my friends are mostly normal people

Oh shit I forgot that was an option lmao. Deleting the app once I get home lol

Project zomboid dev

I could be weird for this but the starting over part actually contributed to me continuing to use linux tbh. Trying out a new distro, figuring out how to use it, and building a new user interface each time I killed my system kept me engaged with linux beyond its utility. It functioned essentially as a way to learn about computers and as a creative outlet. I don’t fuck around and find out as much as I used to but I still swap distro every year or so.

Newborn paranoid is actually me 💀

Debian is one of my favorites and one of the easiest to use if you are new. i haven’t tried mint but they are very similar.

Void heart (rare)

• counters charm of systemd
• sanity decreases with time
• +2 con

I oscillate between void and debian. I use a french press. Idk what that says about me

“Kitty”

I didnt know archinstall existed when I first installed arch 😔

Oh?! Those app icons not appearing or working properly every once and a while are a gnome problem? Genuinely just thought I was doing something wrong.

I am not necessarily new to linux as I have distro hopped extensively so I might give KDE plasma a shot as I have heard good things but I am certainly not an expert when It comes to linux. I have only learned enough to keep my games running and my desktop environment clean. Sometimes I will run into an issue I cant fix and just reinstall the OS or try another one lmao.

I’ve recently grown quite interested in customizing my DE but was struggling to understand how people do it. Not used to messing with config files and I downloaded themes but didn’t know how to install them. It often feels like I simply expected to know a lot of linux knowledge so steps often go unexplained and since I learned how to use linux primarly independantly and through necessary maintenance, there’s a lot of of stuff I simply never learned because I did not need to.

Also what is the difference between a system tray and a control center?
