Hi @_elena@mastodon.social
one caveat: #LMDE must updated after 2 years. LM (Ubuntu) after 4.

Mostly Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) ... but I am doing more with Devuan and derivatives like Vendefoul Wolf with LXQt.
As of right now, I am still most confident in LMDE for best "newbie Linux distro".
I should do a comparison video between the two so I can easily show people who are interested in Linux. Another thing I should do!
#Debian #LMDE
#Linux desktop dla kolegów z biura?
Żonie zrobiłem #LMDE i oboje jesteśmy zadowoleni bo od tamtej pory nie zgłosiła żadnych problemów.
Ale boje się że ludzie poinstalują jakieś gówniane flatpaki, bo Mintowy sklep to #flatpack hub, i będą narzekać że apki wyglądają gównianie i nie mają dostępu do ich plików...
I have come into possession of a Dell XPS laptop with integrated Intel graphics as well as a dedicated Geforce 1650 chip. I've installed #LMDE 7, and it's running fine. It appears to be using the integrated Intel graphics for everything, but lspci shows that the Geforce 1650 is present and recognized.
I'd like to try gaming on this laptop.
The Internet being what it is right now, I'm finding much conflicting information about how to make use of the Geforce card when running games via Steam.
Ich mag Linux Mint ja echt gerne, aber ein Problem nervt mich schon lange und irgendwie scheint das niemand zu fixen:
Nach größeren Updates lässt sich das Terminal nicht mehr starten.
Um das zu lösen, muss ich jedes Mal den Language Pack "English, United Kingdom" installieren.
Warum auch immer der bei größeren Updates deinstalliert wird, obwohl Language und Interface auf "English, United Kingdom" eingestellt sind. Total absurd! 🤦♂️

For Linux newbies, the Debian installer may be a bit challenging (at least it used to be). So mxLinux wins there.
The Devuan installers are also not Linux newbie friendly, but I really like the TUI based Devuan Server installer and then choose a desktop environment as one of the last steps.
I chose Devuan because I am interested in not having SystemD.
Debian is also good, but for ease of use and installation I would usually recommend Linux Mint Debian Edition to a Linux Newbie would wants to run Debian.
So I am guessing the reason is that some Debian derivatives have an an installer that is easier to use and understand than Debian itself.
