When I was doing it I started from scratch, you can generally keep your home directory intact between distros though, settings and data stay

I agree, elementary was the distro I stuck with longest before I settled on nix

Actual macos ux kinda sucks though in my opinion, when I’ve had to use a Mac I find it gets in my way half the time with the emoji picker pop up or something

Have got kitty and xterm looking identical, multiplexing is done by zellij anyway

I think kitty is a bit snappier but honestly you could switch one out for the other and I probably wouldn’t notice

The difference is nobody knows what the binary blobs are made of

Not even letting your bop cook?

Mint/elementary are good if on windows 10/Mac respectively

What I would say is what is your reason for converting people, because you’re going to end up as permanent tech support this way when they’d have probably been fine with a Mac or something

Good old I can’t believe it’s not macos

Mint is one of the best bets for beginners, it’s very similar to windows 10 UI wise by default and generally very user friendly

Don’t forget uWuntu

Lshw, lsusb, etc and grep do that

I generally don’t miss anything graphical, once I learn how to do something from the cli I rarely feel the need to do it graphically anymore as it’s usually a lot slower

The obvious one would be Photoshop and paint.net of course but krita does the trick

I’m guessing Firefox’s pdf editor is not sophisticated enough

That doesn’t fit the definition of memory leak in my mind, had thought a memory leak was specifically when the program completely loses track of memory

That looks a lot like task manager, what tool is that?

Surely that’s not a memory leak, that’s just the program using a lot of memory intentionally

Thought the whole point was that it forced you to handle memory properly and automatically released things when they go out of scope

What kind of situation can cause a memory leak in rust

Itssss fine it’s only the dev database I can drop this table

All well and good for people who know how to do that

A lot of users won’t even know what a kernel is let alone why their printer has stopped working or that they need to raise a GitHub issue

This seems like a bad idea… What about people using hardware that needs those

This only works for people who have disks lying around big enough to backup their entire primary disk
