While I am by no means an expert in Linux distros (distributions) might I recommend two widely supported and user-friendly ones?

Linux distributions are basically packets of software that envelop the Linux kernel that determine the look, feel and function of the operating system. While there is a multitude of flavours, Debian-based systems such as Ubuntu and Mint are widely supported and have huge communities while being user friendly (i.e. keep the command line usage low/ explained). I managed to squeeze so much processing power out of my old laptop just by switching from Windows 10 to Linux Mint (very lightweight, has a graphic interface very similar to Windows). If you don't have to worry about every every Byte of RAM tho, I'd say Ubuntu is a very good start

Hope this helps <3

Thank you! I'm currently deciding between Mint with the Cinnamon desktop or Fedora with either KDE or Cinnamon. Going to try live USBs to test them out.

For others considering the switch: Mint is the most commonly recommended "easy and stable for new Linux users" version. Fedora is "stable but you're going to need to Google how to do more things until you're used to it." Cinnamon desktop is "things look like Windows", KDE is "not trying to be Windows but similarly intuitive, and you can customize everything", and the third common desktop is GNOME which is "doing it's own thing but looks like Mac, with lots of tiled apps".

Note that these are one-day-of-research impressions. I'll probably try GNOME too, but it looks instinctively ugly to me when I search up images of it.

Most common versions seem to have the option to try them before switching your computer over, so that's my next step.

Melancholy, the doctor called it when Jimmy talked Scott into allowing an exam after the third time he refused to get out of bed. Not an uncommon affliction, he said. Prisoners with longer sentences were especially prone to it, he said. Not difficult to treat, he said, so long as Jimmy was careful with him.

Careful with him, like Scott was some fragile trinket that would shatter without the right care. Gods, he hated doctors.

(The doctor wasn't wrong though, was he? Something inside Scott had broken, and he hated that he didn't know what it was or how to fix it. He prided himself on being crafty in both senses of the word. He could mend anything - except, apparently, himself.)

Thankfully, Jimmy didn't seem inclined to treat Scott any differently than he had been, except for worried glances when he thought Scott wasn't looking and quiet anxious chirps in his throat that he didn't seem to notice. Some days Scott felt fine and some days he didn't, but on the days he didn't, the smile on Jimmy's face alone was worth the effort to try. Even if on some of those days he couldn't make it any farther than the sofa and Jimmy's arms, he tried.

Careful with him. Scott didn't need Jimmy to be careful with him. He just needed him to be around, and he was, and Scott loved him for it.

"How are you feeling today?" asked Jimmy over breakfast on a morning when Scott's mind felt clearer than it had in weeks.

"Hm?" Scott glanced up from his cinnamon roll, one finger in his mouth, and tried not to smirk as Jimmy's expression betrayed how easily his train of thought was derailed watching Scott suck the icing off it.

"Uh. I, um." Jimmy's ears were red, and oh, what Scott wouldn't give to know the details of what Jimmy was thinking about. "I was wondering if you felt up to a little trip today, is all."

"Sure. Where did you have in mind?" Scott leisurely tore another bite off his cinnamon roll, enjoying the way Jimmy's eyes tracked the movement of his hand to his mouth.

Jimmy exhaled shakily; it was quiet, but Scott was watching him too closely to miss it. Jimmy looked away with a hand on the back of his neck, trying to regain his composure. "Well, it's a bit of a surprise, really. Also I have something for you before we go."

"Ooh, a surprise and a present? Careful, pretty bird, or I might just think you're courting me," teased Scott, and laughed when a sharp whistle escaped Jimmy.

When they had finished breakfast and cleaning up, Jimmy made Scott wait in the living room while he went to fetch whatever it was he wanted to give him. Scott smiled at the way Jimmy's wings trembled in excitement, until Jimmy returned and Scott saw what he held in his hands.

"They might be a little dusty, being in storage so long, but everything should be there," said Jimmy, setting the items in Scott's lap. Scott stared at the colorful fedora, lifting it up and running his fingers over the brim. Its white feather was missing, but otherwise it was in perfect shape. So was the travel bag underneath it, and the neatly-folded coat with its patchwork colors that matched the hat, and the pair of boots Jimmy set on the floor next to him.

Scott set his hat on his head and pulled on his boots, then stood and pulled on his coat. It fit more loosely than it was meant to, even after three months of being able to eat whatever he wanted whenever he wanted, but it was his. He pulled it tighter around him, then looked at Jimmy with misty eyes.

Jimmy gave him a soft smile. "It suits you," he said quietly. "Well - I mean of course it would, it's yours after all. You look like a - a dashing adventurer with rakish charm!"

Scott laughed, and Jimmy beamed. "Thank you for these. I didn't think I would ever see them again." Jimmy sat down, and Scott wanted to kiss him, but he settled for a peck on the cheek as he took a seat and leaned against the canary. Jimmy put an arm around him, and they sat there together while Scott pulled items out of his bag one by one and gazed at them in wonder.

Even his iridescent dagger was there, and after a moment of hesitation and an uncertain look at Jimmy, Scott slid the sheath onto his belt. "Are you sure this is okay?" he asked, needing to be certain even though he knew Jimmy would have said something already if it wasn't.

"Of course," said Jimmy. "I trust you." He nudged Scott into standing up, then took his hand the moment they were both on their feet. "Come on, then, time for your surprise."

Scott followed him out of the house and through the city, marveling at how much more like himself he felt in his own clothes with his own bag at his side. Jimmy still glanced his way whenever he thought Scott wasn't looking, but this time the looks he gave him were warm and happy instead of worried. While they walked Scott wondered what Jimmy wanted to show him. He couldn't imagine what could possibly compare to getting his belongings back, until they reached the upper levels and stepped through the door of a building built directly into the side of the cavern.

What made Scott stop and stare wasn't what was immediately inside the doors. Just inside was only storage of some kind, crates and barrels whose contents Scott could only guess at, though the gardening tools hanging from pegs on the wall made him wonder. Then they stepped through a second set of doors, and Scott tightened his grip on Jimmy's hand as he gaped at the sight.

Sunlight streamed down from a glass-covered opening at the top of the cave. The air was warm, and instead of stone under his feet there was soft soil and new grass. A waterfall tumbled down one cliff face into a small pool. And the flowers. Flowers of every color filled the little grotto, some growing directly from the ground and some in planters. If he looked closely Scott could see where pipes brought in warmth and water, but other than that and the wooden door behind them, the cave looked for all the world like a little slice of summer made manifest.

He stepped forward and looked around in amazement, brushing his fingers over leaves and delicate petals. "Do you like it?" asked Jimmy. "It's for you. You can come here whenever you want, and if there's anything not to your liking I can have it redone or rearranged or - "

"It's perfect," said Scott in a strangled voice. "It's...I love it. It's beautiful."

"Oh, good," said Jimmy with relief, and Scott turned around to face him. Jimmy took his hand again, and the way he looked framed by flowers with sunlight shining in his golden hair left Scott breathless. He leaned closer to his canary before he even realized it, then stopped himself before he could go too far.

"Gods, I want to kiss you right now," he whispered instead, and his heart ached with longing.

"Then kiss me," murmured Jimmy.

Scott stared at him, and he had never been more tempted to make a mistake in his life. "What about Fwhip?"

Confusion flitted across Jimmy's face, followed by realization, and he laughed. "Oh! I guess you wouldn't know, would you?" Scott furrowed his brow, his own emotions still stuck on confusion, and Jimmy pressed his forehead against Scott's. "Fwhip and I have a... let's call it an understanding. He won't mind."

"You're sure?" asked Scott, heart pounding.

"I'm sure," said Jimmy. "I love him, you know that. But I love you, too. Is that okay?"

Hesitantly, eagerly, Scott's answer was to press his lips to Jimmy's. Jimmy wrapped his arms around him, returning the kiss, and for the first time in four years, Scott felt free.

excited to be using linux on my big screen computer~~

a cool thing I've noticed is that linux I think takes up significantly less space than windows ever did. and I'm just running the cinnamon desktop~~!!

out of the 256 gb of space on the initial OS drive, I've got 217 gb left. windows I forgot how much it left me with tho...

Linux mint is nice so far~~ especially the second hard drive being password protected to mount; rather than being accessible to anyone using the computer.

installed vlc as a media player and now idk what other applications I'd need.

or if I even have enough space currently to try to get steam games working. as the terabyte hard drive is cluttered with anime and music I've saved. and where all of my data is stored separate from the os.

one thing I lost tho that I had forgotten about was my progress in cookie clicker, as I was playing through that, and i don't remember when my last backup was or how much I've lost. By the time I realized I hadn't backed it up, the install was already in progress and it was far too late.

I like cinnamon so far~~ the keyboard shortcuts to reveal all the different desktops,, even found zoom features that are really useful. I thought you had to pinch or push your fingers apart while pushing the hotkey toggle like you do on iphones to zoom in on pictures and stuff, but no. just slide your fingers from the top of the touchpad to the bottom to zoom in, and reverse to go back to small.

I never used zoom on windows; much to my detriment, lol. bad vision is bad. I'm saying it again even tho it might not be relevant here, I'm legally blind. left eye bad vision, right eye none whatsoever. I never liked on board zoom on windows and i'm not sure why... this is nice.

I'm still excited cause I've always wanted to run linux on my big screened gaming pc, but it would never boot. come to find out I was installing grub in the wrong place... needed it on dev/sda1 instead of dev/sda itself. I guess because 1 is the first part of the disk?

hopefully much less spywarey than windows~~ and more secure. I've always assumed that linux/unix/bsd were more secure than windows in general.

funny enough when I first found these types of operating systems as a teenager a long time ago, I jumped into the deep end and immediately tried FreeBSD first. then backed off and stuck with fedora, opensuse for a bit, then to the more user friendly stuff like ubuntu, and linux mint. then many years later I stopped liking what whomever makes ubuntu was doing, and switched to mint, but they still used ubuntu's base, so now I use debian based stuff.

there's my entire fore into linux from being a teenager to now, lol. also very fanboyish high school report on how linux/unix was better than windows. before I even started using linux proper. ahhhh the cringe.

sucks a bunch of corporate stuff doesn't work with linux; cause I'm always seeing like the eye doctors operating systems being windows, and I'm always like "why don't you use linux?" the reason is they want their technology and stuff to work. like it won't on linux?

positive experience and a positive rant~~~ still going to tag it as rant anyway tho~~

@lemonadecroc asked:

the woman was in her bodyguard uniform, a black suit and pencil skirt, with a black tie as she took black fedora off to fan herself crossing her legs as she sat down, bobbling one of her tall black heels off the end of her foot "UGH! why does it gotta be so hot when i gotta be on patrol, so unfair" puffing up her cheeks and pouting like an actual child as she reached into her shirt and pulled out a wrapped cinnamon roll as her razor sharp teeth easily ripped through the sweet, then looking over "HEY YOUR THAT CUTE AMERICAN! HEY IM LEMON REMEMBER!" her mouth entirely full almost muffling her words as her eyes seemed to gleam and doing a little point to herself with her black gloved hand with her first finger

“Hm? Oh. Yeah. The giant lady.” He looked over her outfit briefly, raising an eyebrow, “What… are you working for, like… the Italian Mafia? Or some other kind of crime family? Because… uh, your uniform is a little outdated. You look like you walked outta mid-1930’s New York.”

[blizzard-nightlamps]

What distro of linux are you running?

linux mint with the cinnamon de right now - i started with vanilla ubuntu, got sick of the way it looked, tried out kubuntu but kde felt way too buggy compared to gnome. was going to just reinstall ubuntu but i tried fedora after a friend recommended it (tried for like a hour to get a native linux game to run and gave up), tried linux mint after that and the experience has been relatively smooth and i prefer it to ubuntu.

i still probably wouldn't recommend linux to most people but it's honestly been fantastic for me! the few issues i have with it generally stem from a lack of support, and even then i kind of enjoy the tinkering around and eventually getting things to work. and of course i also hate microsoft

[window-to-the-void]

Any foolproof Linux distros? I might try it

there's a few good options they just look kinda different/have different uis

these first few are pretty windows-like

this is linux mint (it comes with it's own desktop enviroment called cinnamon) and is based on ubuntu (this is useful to know since if you have to google something results for ubuntu will probably also work):

it's a pretty traditional desktop, decent option if you like windows.

this is kde (another desktop environment), specifically fedora's kde plasma edition (fedora isn't based on anything, it's its own thing):

similar experience to mint, imo it looks much nicer but is a little glitchier (although it's gotten much better lately). it's also super customizable, you can make it look basically however you want. for example:

btw you can get kde on other distros too! kubuntu is also pretty popular but i'd recommend fedora from personal experience.

pop!_os (also based on ubuntu) uses a modified version of gnome that looks kinda nice imo:

finally, fedora's main version (called workstation) uses unmodified gnome which behaves a lot like macOS:

i should probably add if you use an nvidia graphics card you should probably just go with pop!_os, since nvidia can be a pain in the ass on linux and pop handles it automatically. personally i mostly use gnome cos i was raised on macOS and it's what i'm used too :3

Exploring Linux Distros: A Guide to the Best Options for Your Needs

If you’re diving into the world of Linux, one of the first things you’ll encounter is the concept of “Linux distros.” But what exactly is a distro, and why are there so many to choose from? Whether you’re a tech enthusiast, a developer, or simply curious about Linux, understanding the variety of distros available can significantly enhance your computing experience. Let’s unpack what Linux distros are, and explore some of the best options out there to help you find the perfect fit for your needs.

What is a Linux Distro?

In the Linux ecosystem, the term “distro” is short for “distribution.” Essentially, a Linux distro is an operating system that’s built on the Linux kernel. The kernel is the core part of the operating system, handling interactions between hardware and software. However, a distro encompasses not just the kernel, but also a variety of software applications and utilities bundled together to create a complete operating system.

Each Linux distro packages its own set of software and configuration options, which means that while they all use the Linux kernel, they can vary widely in terms of user experience, system performance, and available features. This diversity allows users to choose a distro that best fits their specific needs, whether that’s for everyday desktop use, server management, or specialized applications.

Popular Linux Distros and Their Unique Features

1. Ubuntu

Ubuntu is one of the most popular Linux distros, especially for those new to Linux. Developed by Canonical Ltd., Ubuntu is known for its user-friendly interface and strong community support. It uses the GNOME desktop environment, which is intuitive and easy to navigate. Ubuntu releases are updated every six months, with Long-Term Support (LTS) versions receiving updates and support for five years. This makes Ubuntu a reliable choice for both personal use and server environments.

2. Fedora

Fedora is a cutting-edge distro sponsored by Red Hat. It’s known for including the latest features and technologies. Fedora’s commitment to open-source software and innovation makes it a favorite among developers and tech enthusiasts. It offers a clean and modern GNOME desktop experience and typically includes the newest versions of software packages. Fedora is a good choice if you’re looking to stay on the bleeding edge of Linux developments.

3. Debian

Debian is the base for many other distros, including Ubuntu. It’s renowned for its stability and reliability. Debian’s rigorous testing and quality assurance processes mean that it’s an excellent choice for both servers and desktop systems where stability is critical. It offers a wide range of software packages and supports multiple architectures, making it a versatile choice for various hardware configurations.

4. Arch Linux

For those who enjoy tinkering and customizing, Arch Linux is a standout option. Arch follows a rolling release model, meaning that updates are continuous rather than being tied to specific version releases. This approach allows users to always have the latest software. However, it requires a bit more technical know-how to set up and maintain, as Arch Linux doesn’t come with a pre-configured desktop environment or a graphical installer.

5. Mint

Linux Mint is another distro that’s well-suited for beginners, particularly those coming from a Windows background. It’s based on Ubuntu but offers a different user interface with its Cinnamon, MATE, or Xfce desktop environments. Mint emphasizes ease of use and a familiar interface, making it an excellent choice for users who want a smooth transition to Linux without a steep learning curve.

6. openSUSE

openSUSE is a versatile distro that offers both stability and cutting-edge features. It comes in two main versions: openSUSE Leap, which is more stable and suited for production environments, and openSUSE Tumbleweed, which is a rolling release with the latest software. openSUSE is known for its powerful YaST configuration tool, which simplifies system management and configuration.

Choosing the Right Distro for You

When selecting a Linux distro, consider what you want to achieve with your operating system. If you’re a newcomer to Linux, distros like Ubuntu or Mint can provide a more user-friendly introduction. For those interested in cutting-edge technology and development, Fedora or Arch Linux might be more appealing. If stability and reliability are your priorities, Debian or openSUSE Leap could be the best choice.

Ultimately, the best way to find your ideal Linux distro is to try a few out. Many distros offer live versions that you can boot from a USB stick to test drive before installing. This approach allows you to get a feel for different environments and see which one aligns best with your workflow and preferences.

Conclusion

Linux distros offer a diverse range of options tailored to various needs and preferences. Whether you’re seeking a user-friendly desktop environment, a robust server solution, or an opportunity to explore the latest innovations in open-source technology, there’s likely a Linux distro that fits your requirements perfectly. Embrace the flexibility of Linux, experiment with different distros, and discover the one that enhances your computing experience.
