I’m between distros and looking for a new daily driver for my laptop. What are people daily driving these days? Are there any new cool things to try?

I have been using linux mint recently. I have used nixos and arch in the past. Personally, linux mint uses flatpacks too much for my liking. Although, I might have a warped perspective after using arch. (the aur is crazy big)

  • As someone who uses it as well:

    Yes it is. Especially if you use Gnome. Because you can set dconf settings right in your Config.

    It takes a while to remember to configure your User Account not in the normal Settings App but instead in the Config, but once you do it’s amazing.

    I reinstalled on my Laptop and i was back on my old Desktop with all my Programs, Extensions, Settings etc within 20 Minutes

    When i change a Setting on my Laptop, i use Git to synch the Config to my Desktop and all the changes i made to my Laptop are also on my Desktop.

    Also: no more accidentally breaking your system. I don’t have to type random Commands in my Terminal to try and fix something and then try ans revert them. I just add the Config. If it doesn’t work, i remove the Config again and it automatically reverts everything back as if nothing ever happened.

    It is trily amazing

    Now if only SELinux or Apparmor finally were supported.
