FatLegTed , to Free and Open Source Software in what's your current linux distro?
@FatLegTed@piefed.social avatar

Endeavour and KDE.
Like the look of it. Easy to update, no bloatware or games reinstalled.
If I do swap again it'd probably be back to Mint. I had some issues a while ago and moved to MX. That worked well but there was so much guff. Tried Endeavour about a year ago and have been here ever since.

I've never got Wine to work. Gave up with Windows programmes as there's nothing I need there. Other people have different uses though.

Looks like my distro hopping days are over now though and settled with EndeavourOS. I'm well aware it's Arch with a fancy hat on but it suits me. For now 😉

FatLegTed , to Technology in The platform era is ending. Rather than build new Twitters and Facebooks, we can create a stuff-posting system that works better for everybody.
