edit: for anyone curious, the problem was Xorg wasnt loading or something (stuck on systemd 'graphical interface target reached' with no graphical interface). because of a typo in a config file.

my current install is 3 yrs old, if you select a decent distro and dont fuck with its internals it works pretty well.

i suspect most of the people complaining are either on a meme distro or they poke too much into the system

You seem to implying that doing anything other than using preinstalled apps like the web browser is "poking too much into the system" and are therefore idiots. As I have had a system break just by installing or upgrading packages on Ubuntu. Now I always use ZFS on root and make snapshots of everything beforehand.

I installed Ubuntu on my desktop I wasn't using for a while, then had to wipe it again a couple hours later after I seemingly bricked my OS installing a package necessary to run AppImages, except it uninstalled some pretty critical shit

What would you suggest is a meme distro, I'm using endeavour os, it is imo perfection almost.

Whatever distribution I tried something didn't work or failed to boot

meme distro

Which distros are "meme distros"?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I don't know what they meant by "meme distros", but I can say that the thing that immediately comes to mind is TempleOS.

TempleOS isn't even Linux.
