I’m logging out of this Tumblr account for a while so I’m going to be inactive for a bit. If anybody needs recommendations what distribution to choose, I’ll make a guide soon enough.

(The answer is Debian, it’s almost always Debian.)

The internet likes to obsess over something for a couple of days and then move on, but don't. Don't forget about Luigi Mangione.

Honestly, that's just how often I tend to think of you.

LFS > Gentoo > Arch > Debian > the majority of Linux distributions > Ubuntu > RHEL/ChromeOS > Apartheid Linux.

Any objections?

Just a reminder that you're one horrible take away from reaching the bottom of the list.

LFS > Gentoo > Arch > Debian > the majority of Linux distributions > Ubuntu > RHEL/ChromeOS > Apartheid Linux.

I hope to one day be the Linux user that has no clue what modern Windows looks like.

I'm don't care if it's stupid, I want to be the 1000th note and I've already liked this post.

Cis men using Linux is actually cultural appropriation of trans women. And that's the poast.

Operate your entire system as the root user. The world is ending anyways.

So there's a new OS gimmick blog, ay? Well welcome to the team, SunOS!

Reblog with your distrohopping journey.

They might as well rename Vim to Meth considering how hard it is to quit.

Remember the thinkpad that liked getting slapped. As mentioned a while back it died. Here’s its brother, my thinkpad P51.

woof as @yiffos-official i would like 2 apply to bribe u 2 have a bias 4 yiffOS. i have 3 nickels a jpeg of a cute dog (heavily compressed) and about 15 slightly damp tennis balls in like new condition

If you compress the cute dog a tad bit more and throw the tennis balls in the bathtub for a minute or two than you've got a deal.

That is so cool! Give me a bit to think of a distro, and please remind me if I forget.

hello linux side of tumblr! i have an old laptop that i want to install linux on. this is a fujitsu lifebook t4210, an old 32 bit tablet laptop. im looking for recommendations on what distro to use!

i use arch on my main laptop and ive grown quite fond of it. i would have to use arch 32 which kinda sucks so idk if arch is a good option here

i have already tried debian but i dont think i liked it. tho maybe i just dont like kde. shoukd i try some other desktop environment?

[distrochooser]

I second this. Solid state storage is like magic.

best distro for an old, slow laptop running windows 8? already tried mint and its a bit slow itself

That's a great question, but it's missing a couple of key details. First of all, what flavor of mint were you using? If you were using cinnamon, I recommend the xfce variant. If you are willing to give it a shot, a WM may just be a great choice. My personal favorite is bspwm. In terms of lightweight distros, Arch and Gentoo are great choices, despite my problems with them in the past.
