    1. Keep up the good work. Your project reminds me of small “old school” distros from the noughties and I love the vibe!
    2. I get the aim at “regular” people. I’d wager there’s an interest for a somewhat polished tiling experience; perhaps not among regular people, but among the a bit experienced (and a bit lazy) crowd of Linux users, which is definitely numerous.

    Anyway, I’m just spitballing. Good luck with your project!










  • Also what the fuck does the author mean when he says ubuntu is special¿?

    There are two ways I read that:

    1. Ubuntu is special just to the author. It’s their favourite distribution and it holds sentimental value to them. The author doesn’t want Ubuntu to change, because they like it just the way it is.
    2. Ubuntu is special because of its high popularity between new users. For a long time, Ubuntu was/is suggested to newbies because of its ease of use and solid defaults. The removal of the apps could make the experience of future new users worse, so less people would stick with Linux.


  • Regolith packages preconfigured i3wm (and now Sway) alongside basic utility apps (file manager, image viewer etc.) and GUI configuration manager. Notifications and similar stuff, which you have set up manually in some window managers, works out of the box. I’d call Regolith a full blown desktop environment. Too bad it’s intertwined with apt so much, so porting it to distributions other than Ubuntu and Debian is complicated.

    You realise you’re accusing the mod a of a community solely devoted to appreciating the artistic merit of video games, of not having “good taste”?

    Having a bad taste and being a mod is not mutually exclusive. ;)

    Much like Tropical Ding Dong, I felt somewhat disappointed the game didn’t do more with its “being a cat” premise, but I wouldn’t call Stray a bad game because of that. Would the story change much, if you weren’t a cat? Not really. Would I enjoy it much less? Yes.
