just saw this, just in case if you dont know
yum -> rhel and derivates (centos, rocky?)
dnf -> fedora and derivates (including fedora atomic)
apt -> debian and derivates (ubuntu, mint, popos, and like 99% of beginner friendly distro)
zyppper -> suse and derivates
pacman -> arch and derivates (manjaro, endeavour)

i knew about apt, dnf, and pacman

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 9:58 AM

but not the other ones, thank you

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 9:58 AM

also tbh i've had a better time on fedora and arch as a "beginner" than ubuntu/debian and the like, for some reason. better online resources, better wiki, more control, significantly more and up-to-date packages, the entirety of the aur, stuff like that

apk :moyaiguy:

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 9:59 AM

apk is the real package manager

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:00 AM

the one true ruler of them all

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:00 AM

i want a linux os that uses .wads as installation files and whatnot

JJan apk :moyaiguy:

i just learned this recently because devcontainer

asen23OP•7/22/24, 10:02 AM

and my short term memory sucks

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:02 AM

DoomOS

Zeglius•7/22/24, 10:02 AM

Pacman is a nice package manager too

KKasher_CS DoomOS

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:03 AM

my favorite

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 10:03 AM

To be fair half of these apply to Arch

PPKay™.ogg is better

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:03 AM

installing a package sounds like dialup

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:03 AM

plays the ogg

PKay™•7/22/24, 10:03 AM

My problem with arch was the fact that it did NO hand holding at all
And it was my first distro so you can tell how bad it went

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:03 AM

endeavour was quite a good onboarding experience

KKasher_CS To be fair half of these apply to Arch

asen23OP•7/22/24, 10:04 AM

idk why arch wiki is like mdn lol, they document shit not even in their ecosystem

AAshlynn endeavour was quite a good onboarding experience

PKay™•7/22/24, 10:04 AM

yeah my next hop was endeavour

Aasen23 idk why arch wiki is like mdn lol, they document shit not even in their ecosyste...

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 10:04 AM

Lmao yeah

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:04 AM

yeah i didn't actually try true arch until way later

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:04 AM

i started with majaro and moved to endeavour

Zeglius•7/22/24, 10:04 AM

Grateful for that tho

PKay™•7/22/24, 10:04 AM

after trying and hating ubuntu and later pop_os because ubuntu things

AAshlynn i started with majaro and moved to endeavour

linus started in manjaro and somehow uninstalled his DE in less than few hour iirc lol

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:05 AM

i mean

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:05 AM

linus doesn't pay attention to what he's doing half the time

PKay™•7/22/24, 10:05 AM

Nvidia support in linux is &$@! so

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:06 AM

but also ive done that before; updating mesa and arch wwas like "yeah sure lemme just uninstall everything that depends on mesa and then remove mesa, and then install mesa again"

PPKay™Nvidia support in linux is &$@! so

Zeglius•7/22/24, 10:06 AM

That's only for consumer stuff

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:06 AM

of course, it warns you about it first.. or more like, tells you exactly what its going to do

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 10:06 AM

PopOS

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 10:06 AM

It was PopOS

asen23OP•7/22/24, 10:06 AM

oh i think i got it swapped, luke is the one with manjaro?

Zeglius•7/22/24, 10:06 AM

Pretty sure they are pushing more for computational power stuff rather than being used for the desktop environment

Aasen23 oh i think i got it swapped, luke is the one with manjaro?

Kasher_CS•7/22/24, 10:06 AM

I think so

PKay™•7/22/24, 10:07 AM

actually imagine if there was a wrapper for Linux package managers that played the binary as a sound and video file
like those "install MSDOS on your brain" videos
time to get to work

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:07 AM

hell yeah

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:07 AM

nvidia dropped their entire consumer division like

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:07 AM

a couple years ago

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:07 AM

the only thing they even remotely care about is the datacenter

PKay™•7/22/24, 10:08 AM

well look at them now

asen23OP•7/22/24, 10:08 AM

why sell 4090 for $2000 when you can create a server rack for $200000

PKay™•7/22/24, 10:08 AM

they're in top 3

Ashlynn•7/22/24, 10:08 AM

amd isn't looking much better lately, and intel's gpu division is actually kinda promising looking
