The progress in the last 2 years has been nothing short of amazing.
The KDE team, Wine, Proton, TKG/GE/etc have worked miracles for the Linux community.
Also, shout out to Microsoft for spectacularly face planting in their move to Windows 11/CoPilot/Vibe coded OS development. Nobody deserves more credit for Linux’s growth than Microsoft’s complete failure to innovate as an operating system developer.
Just nuked my CachyOS install with a routine update and switched to Bazzite after repairing it in chroot failed. I enjoyed the entire process, even the failures.
Heh, that’s on you, bazzite here (was arch for a few years 4+ish years ago) can’t remember the last time an update was problematic (oh, wait, 42->43 broke a distrobox, but I do that myself all the time, it’s what they’re for).
On regular Fedora 42->43 broke (or forgot to change?) a few SE Linux rules for me, so that I got constant notifications about violations. Otherwise it’s been rock solid so far.
Yeah, if you dig through journalctl (and you should once in a while) it gives you the commands to fix that stuff if you think it’s right. That said, would be nice to not have to do that.
Best part is that it never gets old day after day after day af…
I get a hit of dopamine just doing mundane tasks on Linux.
i’m still at awe i can literally just play videogames on linux.

the best part is that they didn’t even need to innovate, they just had to not ruin it
The siren call of enshittification-driven short-term profits was too strong.
Little did we know that their long LONG term plan was actually “EmbraceIncompetence, ExtendBlueScreens, ExtinguishSelf”
Can confirm, I’m using arch btw and every three
pacman -Syu's I run into issues that are new to meOne day I will figure out what other Arch users do and why my installation had not a single issue in the 3 years it has been running so far.
I was thinking the same thing, I have installed it on a laptop and it’s almost boring how it just works.

I’m on arch now (BTW) and I’m eyeballing fedora atomic sway.

you know what distro I would choose if I were prone to tinkering at the expense of the system’s month-to-month stability?
lmao :) Have fun.
It’s been 9 years since I set my system up, so…
Please do.

You get issues every fifteen minutes? Damn.
Well, I used enough linux to be angry about a lot of things.
