  • Where will Europeans flee too?

    Jump

  • So, this might change in the future and is not representative of every person here, but as an European, the USA would be one of the last places on my list to flee to if I had to. The current administration has made it more than clear that Europeans are not welcome (that doesn't speak for all US Americans, of course, but still).

    Canada or a South American country like Brazil would be a much better choice.

    If not America, there's North Africa (Tunisia, Egypt), Turkey (which is arguably part of Europe in certain ways) and maybe even a Caucasus state, depending on what kind of war I'm fleeing from.

    Some of those might be better suited for a longer stay than others.

  • Yeah, seriously. This whole "Firefox on mobile doesn't support adblock/extensions" sentinent is very stubborn, yet I've been using them for multiple years without fail at this point.

  • Not sure if half-serious or not, but since I've read that a couple of times now, by that logic, we really don't know what anything is.

  • New to Linux which OS to use?

    Jump

  • That highly depends on what you consider a "beginner distro" to be.

    I don't like the term, because to me, it implies that you have to emigrate from Mint to something else at some point, which is not the case.

    It's not a distro that is supposed to teach you how to do X on Linux systems. It's just a solid OS with a lot of features that are easily accessible, which does make it suited for starters, yes.

    I don't think you have to or should touch the terminal at any time as a regular user and Mint allows you to not do that, as you pointed out as well.

  • I understood streaming as on the receiving end, e.g. watching streamed content online.

  • I would actually rate that as a plus.

    While it's nice to have the ability to run android apps, I don't think many newcomers expect that.

    However, it's much more likely to find an Nvidia GPU in there somewhere, which works notoriously badly with Wayland.

    Also Wayland has scaling issues with lower resolution fullscreen apps and settings.

    I'd rather have those things working by default.

  • As someone who's been in this for a while, go with Mint.

    It's not a "beginner distro". You can start there, you can stay there as long as you don't develop any super niche prerequisites. Even then, Mint can probably do it.

    The developers are sane and it's a popular system that has been in development for years with many tweaks and improvements. There's a big community around it if you need help/guides.

    You just can't go wrong with it.

  • I'm sorry, but as much as I would like to share your worldview, I can't.

    Hunanity seriously has to get its shit together quickly, else a few scumbags will be ruining the fun for everyone.

    As things stand currently, I'm leaning more toward the side of the guy in the comic.

  • One media player to rule them all

  • Logic: Ok, you installed a video player. Fine. It has a GUI, settings and all. Oh, you want to play any videos with it? Go search for their dependencies.
