My user account doesnt have sudo despite being in sudoers. I cant run new commands i have to execute the binary. Grub takes very long to load with “welcome to grub” message. I just wanted a stable distro as arch broke and currupted my external ssd

      You can, but you can also use “he”, as English has a masculine generic.

      I think that most Linux distros are based on Debian these days, as Fedora, the other major “parent” distro, seems not to be doing super-well, so I’d guess that most distros are probably using the sudo group.

      Slackware looks not very alive these days, so I don’t think that there’s much going on with the child distros there any more.

        Slackware is still very much alive, actively maintained, and used by dozens all over the world!
