Seriously!

I have not run Arch, but have had great experience with Manjaro XFCE. It has been fast and stable. The only snag is when I dual boot along side other Linux distros sometimes the Grub gets messed up and has to be fixed to get a boot menu. I've had that happen when I updated Ubuntu and its Grub, which Manjaro didn't like. But maybe that's my fault for running multiple distros on one machine. Have fun. :)

Aren't you sweet! Happy tootiversary! ♥️

@Gargron
It comes up fourth for me. Maybe it just takes some time and clicks to raise in the ranking?

@hund I was at 30/30 fios for $40US a month. They raised it to $52, and after I called them and complained they said they can change it to 50/50 fios. That makes it slightly less awful, but I'll still go elsewhere if I can find a better deal or a less evil company. :/

@hund
Yup. :( At least they agreed to make it faster since they wouldn't go back to the original price. Hopefully a better option will come around some day.

@hund

That is fabulous. I hope that idea spreads to my neighborhood! Not holding my breath, but I can dream...

It's a horribleness monopoly.

I kind of wonder if there are any good internet providing companies. My company is being a jerk with price hikes, and looking at reviews it seems like every company is just as bad. That's depressing. I want that groovy community based option some people talk about so I don't have to go along with their shenanigans.

(Pardon my griping.)

@ChrisWere @omnipotens @kelbot

Nice work Chris! I too vote for righteous retro terminal green.

I've been using Ubuntu Mate as a daily driver for a couple years, while dabbling in Manjaro, Solus, OpenSuse and others. But I think Ubuntu Studio is my new best bud. Creative and stable and nerdy all at the same time is the unexpected Goldilocks zone. I'm disproportionately excited about this. :)

@eylul
Thanks, I appreciate it! I did take you up on the invitation. I'm used to my clientele at art shows, which is 0% nerdy. The Mastodon crowd is different, so it might not matter, but it feels a little more comfortable if I am posting swirly, paintings of trees and stuff though. :)

Pet peeve: When I'm googling something to find an answer and search results show me a forum where people just say "why don't you google it?"

(I prefer Duck Duck Go, but you get the idea.)

@ChrisWere

Sounds reasonable! Just catching up on that drama. Jeesh. That's ridiculous.

@kensp

That does sound delightful! I've definitely run into some of those snags before.

@ChrisWere

Bummer. It does make it sound rough for new little channels trying to gain a foothold.

@Gargron

That's catchy. I like it. :)
