@troyunrau i think the greatest thing to come from the steam deck is that people are slowly realizing that the aura of elitism thats infected the linux community for so many years is thankfully dying
@Sqaaakoi@troyunrau What is wrong with it? You can run any Linux software you want via Crostini. If Chrome OS is not a real Linux distro, then neither are other container-based distro’s like Qubes and Fedora Silverblue.
@Sqaaakoi@troyunrau@Jop chromeos isnt containerized in the same way silverblue is, chromeos runs linux programs in a debian vm.
when a lot of your devices are very low end and comparable to netbooks this is most likely going to be a problem

2023 will be the year of the linux desktop
You know, the Steamdeck’s success might actually make that some kind of true

@troyunrau @ioletsgo steamdeck saving the world from a no non-certified software future

@troyunrau You mean the Chromebook.
No. A browser is not a desktop. ;)
One could argue android is a Linux desktop environment too.
@troyunrau @Jop Have you actually researched or seen the state of modern ChromeOS?

@lunakitty @Sqaaakoi @troyunrau @Jop it’s actually a container INSIDE a VM, which makes it super taxing on performance and basically unusable
Which doesn’t expose much of a Linux userspace unless the user enables developer mode
@Natanael Like how other distro’s require Sudo.
No, not like that.
2024 will be the year of the kube

@stefano @[email protected] @[email protected] yes i know, it was a simple jest
@ioletsgo @[email protected] @[email protected] I know, and think that KDE is the best DE available. I’ve been using it for more than 20 years.
@stefano @[email protected] @[email protected] i love kde
@ioletsgo @[email protected] @[email protected] KDE is a great choice - and has always been, IMHO.
FreeBSD support is good, so you’re not forced to use Linux to enjoy it.
@stefano @[email protected] @[email protected] xkcd 927 but yeah thats cool
@ioletsgo @[email protected] @[email protected] true 🙂
