I don’t think there’s anything particularly wrong with it. In my opinion, the only downside to Manjaro is when you activate the aur repository, as doing so can cause dependency conflicts because this repository is designed for Arch and not for Manjaro and its version timeline.

The distributions within the openSUSE project are, in my opinion, the most advanced and complete Linux distributions. They offer tools such as btrfs+snapper, openQA, Secure-boot, Firewall, Yast (Myrlyn+Agama), etc. as soon as the system is installed. No other Linux distribution offers all of this configured immediately after installing the system. In my opinion, the openSUSE project is at the highest level of Linux, offering solutions for most users, fixed distributions such as Leap, rolling distributions such as Tumbleweed, immutable distributions such as Kalpa, etc.

I use Lollypop and I love it. I would like it to have more information about the track being played. Which audio player do you recommend for Gnome that is in GTK4? Thanks

If you want technical support, of course you do. Just because a code is open source does not mean it should be free. Developers need to eat too. Another issue is that there are distributions such as ZorinOS that charge money for the right to use a pro version, when in reality it is the same version that you can configure yourself and that ZorinOS belongs to a company, not a user community.

Hello. First, I would try to delete the oldest update snapshots using Snapper. Snapper should do this automatically based on a number, but I don’t know why it isn’t doing so in your case. https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Snapper

Very good. You’re right.

Hello. One of the oldest Linux distributions, openSUSE, is missing.

Indeed, I believe that the Fediverse is a paradise island where one can escape the noise created mainly by AI bots on centralised, proprietary social networks, but many users get a dopamine rush from eliciting an emotional response on the network, and that rush is provided by Reddit’s algorithms.

I completely agree. To attract more users, you not only have to create higher quality content, but also content that elicits an emotional response from users, as they well know at Reddit. On Reddit, it is bots that are constantly posting controversial topics. On Lemmy, fortunately, it is humans who can participate in more controversial discussions to attract more humans. For me, as a Linux and Firefox user, controversial discussions include comparisons between Windows vs Linux, Firefox vs Chrome, etc.

KDE & openSUSE is one of the best combinations for Linux.

I always use and recommend hardened Firefox + Ublock. As a search engine, I use Qwant, which is based in the EU and uses its own search engine whenever possible rather than Google, Bing, etc. And there is another reason not to recommend using Brave. Among its investors is Peter Thiel, the most controversial figure in the investment world. Search for Peter Thiel’s controversial statements in your favourite search engine and you will see for yourself.

I think the best option is to use hardened Firefox + Ublock. Most forks are maintained by a very small community, sometimes even just one person. Managing the compatibility of custom security settings with new security patches can be problematic, so I would only trust forks that use Firefox ESR as the basis for their browser, i.e. projects such as Ironfox, for example.

In my opinion, Zypper offers better dependency resolution than Pacman. I have been an Arch user, and the system is good if you do not install random scripts from AUR. It is curious how in Linux we believe that it is more secure than other systems, but then we install random scripts from AUR on a system that, in the case of Arch, is complicated to maintain the enhanced security of SELinux, for example.

I use Tumbleweed because as soon as you install the system, it offers these features.

🛡 openQA-tested updates — every snapshot is tested before release. 🔁 Btrfs+Snapper — full system snapshots & instant rollbacks. 🔒 Secure by default — SELinux, AppArmor, hardened setup. 🧠 Consistent packaging — no random AUR scripts.

What I would like to know is what data they use as a reference to produce that graph and whether that data can be audited.

Thank you for such a detailed reply. Is Ironfox similar to Fennec in terms of security and privacy?

I agree with what you’ve written, which is why I was wondering why people around me tell me that Firefox isn’t a secure browser for Android when I mention that I use it. It’s the only FOSS browser that allows me to pin my favourite websites to the home screen, and it’s the only browser that allows me to install extensions… I’m going to try Fennec to see how it works on Android. Thank you very much.

And Debian? I don’t understand how you can list Arch as one of the most stable distributions when, based on its update model, it doesn’t seek stability but rather constant updating. If you’re referring to operational stability, in my opinion it’s not on the same level as Debian, Leap, Ubuntu, or Fedora. Stability is not synonymous with number of users.

Arch has control over its own repositories, but CachyOS, EndeavourOS, etc. do not.
