All opinions are biased and I don’t like Manjaro!

I had a lot of success with StremIO and the TorrentIO addon, that allows me to stream directly from the torrents of various sites with autoplay, IMDB, remembering where I am at and all that good stuff

Dualbooting is a great start for most people who want to switch but USB sticks have cheap storage controllers so they will die insanly fast if you put that kind of load on them permanentely and it will probably be slower than a HDD.

They crash enough on Windows already, I would highly recommend against it! :/

I used Newpipe for ages but it seems to struggle with the recent wave of blocking attempts by Google so I just switched to Libretube, that has the benefit of Sponsorblock and promised Dearrow support with the next release!

Interesting, seems like there is a Linux app now too, well still not a fan of externak devices just to sideload but luckily the EU will improve that with the Digital markets act I guess

True that!

You should be able to switch that on the login screen, Fedora started to shit Wayland a little early for my taste but it works really well by now

I think they do a great job for new Linux users because what seems like bloat to us is the (at least in my opinion) most comolete GUI experience on Linux but I agree, it dose have quite a bit preinstalled to achive that.

There are ways to sideload apps on iOS but I think you need a Macbook to do so, I had a iPhone once because I got it for free and I will never touch one of those ever again!

If you want something that “just works” any Arch base won’t be a good idea in my opinion. I love Arch but there will be certain things to figure out from time to time and for someone with little experience they can be tough! For you usecase I would recommend Fedora, that’s a lot more up to date but not a rolling realease and tends to just work for me.

Even before their repairability score from iFixit sucked big time! :/

You are probably missing Libretube in that case! ;)

I guess Lemmy users probably also have high sympathies for digital piracy, opposing copyright is very wide spread within the open source community but there are a lot of factors at play here and I’m glad that’s the case because I only started to really use it on Lemmy! :)

That’s actually very missleading, like most involved companies they tried everything to hide it till the shitstorm got too big and the damage to their image was smaller that way so we shouldn’t give them any credit for that whatsoever!!!

I have seen multiple posts about the situation by now with various claims but no one seems to have actually looked into it so I have questions! Is it true that moderators defended the upload and silenced criticism, is it true that the crypto address in question can be linked to the sites admins and is it true that the same malware is all over the internet in countless releases? Not all of those are from this particular pist but if someone here knows the answers I would be happy to read them!

Well and the courts in your corrupt autocracy, Turkey knows what I mean! ;)

I don’t think there is much of a point switching away from Arch if you like it but as others suggested already NixOS seems like what you are searching for.

Guix isn’t a Linux distro but it’s definitely unique and probably for advanced users! :)
