What the Linux desktop really needs to challenge Windows

Reply in thread

I agree, but only until the part you mention how people should install their software. And that's simply because I don't think that people should install random .exes or .debs from the internet, because repositories are:

  1. Easier to find software within: you've got a one-stop-shop for all/most of your most important software
  2. They're inherently more secure as the software should (emphasis on should) be checked by maintainers or the people who upload software onto them
  3. Software updates are much easier to enroll, as they are treated as system updates

Arch user looks for ease of mind

Hi, NixOS user here. I find it a bit difficult to maintain, which is quite ironic, considering that it tries to solve that issue, but it is because I still haven't got my head around most of the concepts, like flakes and such. Because of that, I might be jumping ship and go towards pure Arch or CachyOS. I forgot to add that I extensively used Arch for about 2 years before going over NixOS. With that in mind, I'm not saying that it's a bad distro, but I reaaally miss ArchWiki, and until NixOS doesn't have a good enough wiki (or me starting to code something😂) I think that I'll be on Arch
