I am a Linux user since 2007. Started with Ubuntu 7.04 and went to Mint since its version 12. I've used Windows and Mac a lot. As a bioinformatician, I learned how to get from the OS what I needed. But since I know Linux (Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, Manjaro), Mac (since Leopard) and Windows (95, 98, Me, 2000, XP, 7, 10 and 11), I can asure you: Stop the war. Operating Systems are tools, and as any other tool, it can be important for some tasks and not for others. Each has its own pros and cons. All depends on the user profile. Linux has its problems? Yes, but also do Windows and Mac... Pick one, focus on something important, create, make your contribution. Thats all that matters.

@@c3cxla While Guix has the same paradigm as NixOS and is therefore "also on the right track", I'd argue that it still has a long way to go before it could be recommended as a drop in replacement of production-ready Linux distros. NixOS is "already there", though not without its problems of course. (There are still arcane things you might have to do to achieve some things on NixOS, the UX is certainly not ideal, but still there are no hard limitations I'm aware of, which may still be different for Guix.) In other words, I don't think I could run Guix productively on my convertible laptop, desktop and multi-purpose servers (featuring VM's, system level containerised services, gitlab runners, declaratively configured mail servers and proxies) today without sacrificing functionality.

21:56 Every time you point to an example of something that “does one thing and does it well”, you have to look at the bunch of layers under it that help it do that thing -- think of bash, the X server, the Linux kernel itself: would you describe any of these as “doing one thing and doing it well?”. systemd is just as modular as the Linux kernel itself. Just as the Linux kernel looks after all the parts underneath userland, so systemd is an architecture for managing userland.
@Anteksanteri Рік тому
You know this, but software architecture is extremely complicated to understand. I don't know about systemd specifically but in the general case I would argue that the point of "does one thing" is that having fewer levels of nested abstractions allows the programmer to work mainly with things that they actually understand, leading to fewer bugs. The "one thing" is something that is well defined and fairly low level and the "do well" generally means that it runs fast and is easy to use. This philosophy does lead to less code reuse ability and a way wider and shallower dependency tree but individual components that do one thing and thus have less complexity leads to more understandable and thus less error prone code and software.

First heard about Linux in early 2010's on a computer and network repair course, our teacher showed us Ubuntu as a curiosity. Many years later I went through a Ubuntu and Linux Terminal online courses and trained a bit with Ubuntu 18.04 in a VM. Installes Linux on my PC in early 2022, it was Pop!_OS 21.04. Switched to Mint Cinnamon months later because it is just more stable, faster and feature complete. Basically a mature OS. I'm typing my Graduation Thesis on LibreOffice on Mint. Edit 2024: I finished and sent my thesis September 2023. I got approved. It was a journalism thesis, so I didn't needed much math anyway.

I've been using Linux off and on since 2003 when I was 5 years old. Red Hat was my first distro, and after they started charging money and tossed Fedora at it's free users my dad got upset and we switched to Debian. He primarily used Windows due to work which is what was on my first laptop at age 13, but taught me about computers using Linux, and my mom has used Apple since the Lisa, so I grew up having to know how to use the big 3 operating systems which is pretty neat. I spent my teenage years getting into systems programming and learning about old computers because modern ones just aren't that interesting. I now run a custom system. 4070 Ti, 13th Gen i7, 32 gigs of RAM, all DDR5. It's a beast of a system and I run PopOS on it. We all go through the distrohopping phase and believing we're better because we suffer through the tedious issues in Arch or Nix, but after a few years you get tired of all that and just want your OS to work without issues.

I'm a Manjaro XFCE user, and it was funny that you mentioned that updates are thoroughly tested before being released, as the current updates are broken. Specifically, there's a component named -cefu- 'ceph-libs' that, when compiling during update, hard-hangs my PC. A full, hard-reset of the PC is required to recover from it. Also, I frequently get 'unable to lock database' errors when applying updates, with no explanation what that means and how to 'fix' it. Fixes suggested online have never once worked...I usually just wait a week or so and try the updates again, and it works. edit: Also, python2 fail during compile, no meaningful error message...just 'fail'.

Win 95 was a beautiful OS. The Win NT line was much better and had a superb look. Although MS did some silly things, like that Win XP look, at least I could turn on the Win 95 theme. With Win 8, MS flushed it all down the toilet. The spying. The ugly GUI. I can’t update when I want to. They forced me to switch to Linux. Kubuntu 18.04 became my Win 7 replacement. It works well. It took time but I learned it. I do my programming with Qt Creator. I moved all my mini programs to Linux and made new ones. I give it away for free and the source code is GPL. Luckily, there is Steam with the PROTON project. All my gaming satisfaction happens under Linux as well. At least Linux is improving. The Windows line is getting worst. MS Office and subscription? No thank you. Adobe Acrobat and subscription? You see, this is why software needs to be open source.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!
@kebien6020 4 місяці тому
