How are you installing your Nvidia drivers? Are all of your packages from stable?

Without an explanation, this comment looks more stupid. Why is their example bad?

Not particularly interested in Studio One, but I really hope this trend of production companies supporting Linux continues. Would love for NI to follow suit one day (at least with Native Access)

He literally explained why he doesn't use Firefox.

Not sure how this thing will compete when there are mini PC's like the Beelink SER7 out there.

Can you explain what "breaks" you are experiencing?

I'm running Fedora/KDE/Wayland on two machines here, and the only oddity I get regularly is on my system with one monitor in landscape and one in portrait. Sometimes half of the landscape screen seems to be funky until I turn the portrait monitor off and on again (almost like it is trying to put the two displays on one for some reason). Most everything else has been flawless.

The different repos and bad reputation was my point 😉

If you didn't want to try Arch due to instability, Manjaro is a funny choice. I was mostly kidding, anyhow.

I’ve previously been against trying Arch due to instability issues such as the recent GRUB thing.

But you used Manjaro? 😂

Go for it. If you use archinstall, it is incredibly simple to get up and running. The difficulty around Arch is quite overblown except perhaps when talking about people brand new to Linux. Even without archinstall, you are just following a guide in the wiki.

What an attitude you have. He made a suggestion, and wasn't gatekeeping anything.

There exists VanillaOS btw.

The Jetbrains suite of IDE's. Particularly Jetbrains Rider. The platform ~~they are all ~~ many of them are built on is open source though, and you can get free licenses for all of their products if you are using them to develop open source software!

You can just enter a fake Microsoft account and password. When it doesn't work, it gives the option to continue with an offline account (or at least whatever version I installed did)

I just installed 11 recently. There isn't a skip button anymore. I had to enter fake sign in details for it to give me the "offline" option.

So it seems like their point may still stand.
