Recomiendo Fedora, pero a la hora de elegir portatil la distro que traiga es lo de menos, si funciona una probablemente funcionen todas.

Si quieres cero problemas, fijate que el hardware no necesite drivers propietarios, es decir, evita Nvidia. Otro componente que daba guerra es el chip WiFi.

If you don't caaaaaaare, then you should use Baaaaaaaazzite.

That's the distro that promises "no knowledge needed", not CaaaaaaaachyOS, CaaaaaaachyOS is based on Aaaaaaarch, an advaaaaaanced distro.

Remember when standardizing rpm was proposed an Debian said no? Well, now we have rpms, and debs, and Flatpak and Appimage, and Canonical's proprietary alternative too.

He did. Being an incompetent with a huge mouth got him lots of undeserved attention, and he's trying the same trick again.

We are all different.

Being a beginner means that you lack experience, not that you can't learn.

And some people learn faster when they can see in full detail how things work.

Let people choose what they find most attractive.

non-US - Debian Wiki

This reminded me that Debian used to have non-US repos, hosted in mirrors outside US, because of some US law about exporting cryptografic software from the US.

The law didn't ban importing into the US, so it was kosher for US users to use the non-US repos too.

It doesn't look like Microsoft wants you to know his.

The download link now redirects to an article about Windows 10 being dead.

I don't use Steam to play non-Steam "Windows" games. I use Heroic launcher for games from GOG and Epic stories, and Bottles for games with offline installers and other Windows software.

They use my /home and that's fine for me, but both have options to decide where the games / programs should go.

For supported cards not even that.

Do NOT to follow the instructions on Nvidia's website. That's a rookie mistake.

Follow the instructions of the distro instead.

For example, on Fedora, these two commands
docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/gaming...

For old cards, yes, you might need to investigate.

AMD and Intel have open source drivers and just work out of the box.

Nvidia uses proprietary drivers that require manual installation, but its often easier than in Windows.

Also, there is some loss of performance with Nvidia.

It's more don't buy Nvidia for Linux than don't use Nvidia with Linux.

Remixing Linux for blind and visually impaired users Vojtux, a Fedora project, is an unofficial Linux distribution aimed at visually impaired users.

Yes, there are several.

Unfortunately, some of these projects end being abandoned, no idea if it's because it's a difficult task, or because blind users prefer to use a regular distros directly.

This is an article about Vojtux, one that is active.

From the Ubuntu community on Reddit: I removed snap but when i try to install some apps it wants to install snap back Explore this post and more from the Ubuntu community

This is what I mean by hijacking deb packages

Forced account, ads in the menu, taking screenshots of everything you do, uploading your documents to their cloud without asking, putting ai in the notepad and it can now hack you...

You can't say they aren't doing their part.

They cant make people like Snap, but they can hide the deb repositories.

You cant be angry with Ubuntu hijacking deb packages, if you don't even know that they exist.

No mejoraron el rendimiento de la B580 en LΓ­nux en 2025?

Justo Linux Mint es una distro con componentes antiguos (Se basa en Ubuntu 24, casi dos aΓ±os ya).

No se cuanto afecta al rendimiento, pero la gente que usa Mint con esta tarjeta suele actualizar cosas

I went from a decade of Debian / Ubuntu to Arch

Best decision ever. Up to date software, good documentation...

I didn't stay forever though, after about 5 years I broke my system (Nvidia + overconfidence) and I moved to Fedora.

But every Linux user should at least try Arch, it's a great distro.

Yo creo que en algΓΊn punto hubo un malentendido, para instalar una extensiΓ³n no hace falta todo eso.

Me ha picado tanto la curiosidad que me he instalado Mint en una maquina virtual, y sin problema.

Pero bueno, si vas a cambiar de distro, no vayas a Ubuntu, Mint es Ubuntu con un sombrerito.

I agree with Greenman.

Also, for the Youtube AI slop issue, I use Freetube and hide channels that I consider noise.

Me? On my personal computer Fedora Workstation.

I like to try new things and for years I have gone through several distros, but Fedora is becoming difficult to replace, I like that it's up to date, robust, and easy to maintain.

I'm looking at the distros in the beginners category, and maybe they don't mean "These distros are good for beginners", but "only a noob would fall into this trap".

Si un disco estΓ‘ en mal estado la recomendaciΓ³n suele ser hacer una copia a una imagen, y luego trabajar sobre la copia.

dd trabaja bit a bit y le da igual que el disco ni monte, copia lo que ve.

ddrescue es como dd, pero con alguna opciΓ³n mas para recuperaciΓ³n
