Here are five Linux distributions (distros) that are designed to take full advantage of modern hardware to deliver stellar performance. The world of Linux is brimming with hundreds if not thousands of distributions. The benefit of having this many options is that you have different operating systems specifically designed for different users and use cases. However, the clear disadvantage is that it leads to analysis paralysis! Luckily you have me, and if you're looking for a distro for your new PC or laptop, then I've got you! Here is a list of five distros optimized for modern hardware which, in fact, might lag if run on older and weaker systems.

Obviously, dual-booting allows you to use all the hardware resources at one time, but while I tried experimenting with features on both OSes, I found myself going back and forth to each one, losing precious time in the process. That made me embrace a Type‑2 hypervisor instead, and I’m using VirtualBox for this purpose. Here are the reasons why I made the switch and how virtualization transformed my computing experience for the better.

Unlike most distros that install packages in a shared, mutable filesystem, NixOS uses a purely functional approach. Every package is stored in a unique, immutable path, ensuring that dependencies are explicit and isolated. It offers several desktop environments to choose from, is as rock-solid as any OS on the market, and performs quite well.

Have you thought about installing Bazzite? While SteamOS is arguably the best choice for Steam Deck, Bazzite does hide a couple of tricks up its sleeve that make it a worthy SteamOS alternative. While it's not for everyone, let's first go over the benefits of installing Bazzite in SteamOS' place.

Before we go any further, I want to mention what you can't do with the Linux terminal on Android. You can't install GUI apps without serious work. I've tried running GUI apps and found they simply wouldn't start. I know there have been successful attempts at installing apps like Doom on the new terminal, but it is no easy feat.

In some cases, I was determined to use them just for the bragging rights that I'd installed and used one of the most challenging operating systems on the planet. Other times, I just needed something to work out of the box. If you're new to Linux, you've probably come across lists of distributions you should try first, like Ubuntu, Linux Mint, elementary OS, and others. What you might not have read, however, is a list of distributions you should avoid until you've mastered the command line and aren't afraid to do a lot of things manually.

Commodore OS Vision 3.0 has officially been released and is ready to install on your Commodore 64x today. This fan-made Linux-based operating system is designed specifically for Commodore branded devices—particularly ones found through websites like My Retro Computer, which have recreated the old school experience of computing by putting modern PC hardware inside retro cases. The new OS version debuted earlier this week and is backed with plenty of tools and resources to help bring the old school experience back for a modern age. It has a variety of new things like games and even tools that can be used to develop custom apps from scratch. One of the new features is what the developer calls a "resource hub" known as Commodore OS Central. The intention is for this to be a launching pad for critical apps and tools. Commodore OS Vision 3.0 also has a brand new Settings Manager. This will allow users to add a new level of customization to their retro computing experience. You can adjust things like the wallpaper, add animations and customize the music you hear for various OS functions. It also has the ability to configure system options for startup protocols and can handle emulator settings, as well.

Ports continue to default to Xorg, but Wayland can easily be installed along and run in either pure Wayland or Xwayland mode. If you decide to run a Wayland session, you will need to enable the 'contrib' collection and rebuild a few ports (for example xorg/mesa) to make it fully available. cd /usr/ports && grep -rlw "wayland" | cut -d "/" -f2 | sort -u to see which ports are affected.

The good news? Linux has plenty of native archive managers that are free, reliable, and surprisingly easy to use. Unlike Windows, where WinRAR and 7-Zip dominate, Linux offers a variety of built-in compression tools. These programs are designed specifically for the Linux environment, meaning they integrate seamlessly with your system. No weird crashes, no compatibility issues, and no need to install Wine just to run Windows software. So, if you're ready to ditch WinRAR and embrace tools built for Linux, here's a rundown of the best native archive managers you should try.

The release’s main highlight is security, specifically targeting the browser’s Android version. Until now, users who needed mutual TLS authentication had to rely on desktop or specialized mobile apps. Firefox 138 changes this by adding full support for TLS client-authentication certificates on Android. For tablet owners, web apps often appear as if they were still designed for a five-inch phone. Firefox’s “Desktop Mode” fixes that by sending a desktop-class user-agent string, preventing mobile layouts from stretching awkwardly. ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠛⠻⠻⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⡿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠻⠿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠻⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣍⣍⣍⣁⣀⡤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠤⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠤⠄⠀⠀⠠⠤⠤⠤⠤⠀⠀⠀⠤⠤⠤⠤⠀⠤⠤⠤⠤⢤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣬⣤⣤⣤⣤⣬⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠉⣽⣍⢩⣭⣭⣭⣭⣍⣭⣭⣭⣭⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⢉⣉⠉⢉⣉⣉⣉⠉⣉⣉⣉⢉⣉⣉⠉⣉⣉⣉⣉⡉⢉⣉⣉⣉⣉⣉⠉⢉⣉⣭⣉⠉⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⡏⠉⠉⠉⠀⠉⠁⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠨⣩⣅⢠⣀⢈⡉⣈⡍⣩⡉⠈⠈⠉⠁⠈⠉⠉⠉⠁⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠿⠿⠿⠿⠭⠛⠃⠀⠀⠤⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⡇⠀⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⠷⠶⠶⠶⠶⠶⠶⠶⠶⠒⠐⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠐⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⢠⡤⣤⣀⣤⣤⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠿⠷⠶⠶⠶⠶⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⣠⣶⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠒⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠥⠭⠭⠭⠅⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠤⠠⠄⠄⠠⠤⠤⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠓⠒⠀⠀⠁⠁⠈⠉⠁⠁⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠄⠍⠉⠉⠁⠍⠭⠩⠉⢉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⠿⠿⠟⠿⠿⠿⠶⠄⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠃⠀⠀⣀⣁⣀⣀⣀⣀⣁⣀⡀⣀⡀⣀⣀⡀⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⣀⣀⡀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠒⠒⠐⠂⠒⠂⠀⠀⠀⠐⠂⠂⠂⠀⠀⠀⠁⠒⠐⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⣤⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠐⠒⠒⢀⠂⠐⠂⠐⠀⠐⠒⠂⠐⠒⠒⠀⠂⢒⠒⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⡀⢀⢀⣀⣀⢀⣀⣀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠶⠶⠴⠴⠶⠦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1367 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/04/28/My_favorite_SSH_clients_for_Android_and_why_you_need_them.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/04/28/My_favorite_SSH_clients_for_Android_and_why_you_need_them.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ My favorite SSH clients for Android - and why you need them⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Apr 28, 2025 Quoting: My favorite SSH clients for Android - and why you need them | ZDNET — My favorite SSH clients for Android - and why you need them Jack Wallen / Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET I regularly need quick access to one of the Linux machines on my local area network, but sometimes I do not have a laptop.

If you’re new to open source, OSI is an organization that was formed in 1998 to protect and promote the Open Source Definition. From its beginning, it’s basically been a standards body and is widely seen by both users and developers of open-source software as being the arbiter of what is — and what is not — a valid open-license license. In other words, you can call your project “open source” all you want, but unless it’s covered by an OSI approved open source license, it’s not open source.

Use Linux, BSD. — I really only ran into two problems (other than Webcamoid crashing). The first was the well-known and long-standing printer installation "failed to connect to server" error, which seems to be common among most Ubuntu flavors and distros based on Ubuntu. It renders the GUI useless, even though it recognizes the printer, and forces printer installation through CUPS and localhost:631 (and even then requires patience and trial and error). Will this ever be fixed? The second was trying to adjust the top panel to my specific needs. Yes, the weather applet (Weather Report) actually provided the correct temperature instead of just a forecast. But adding applets and rearranging them was not nearly so simple. On Xubuntu, for example, a right-click on the panel almost always provides fixes for all issues. But MATE sets up most of its applets through eight Ayatana indicator managers, so trying to delete one unnecessary applet often ends up deleting other, necessary applets that are managed through that specific Ayatana manager. The Ayatana managers are even hidden in the startup manager, to prevent easy editing. No doubt this is to ensure that changing the panel theme and layout through the tweak tool works more easily, and maybe there's a way around this that is simple and straightforward. But I never found it, so I was stuck with applets I didn't want and was limited in adding those that I needed, like a clipboard (for which there doesn't seem to be a MATE default for the panel). Also annoying: the panel separator applet is a skinny line that apparently can't be expanded or changed into a space, which gave me a cramped, unpleasant looking panel. Again, maybe there's a way around this, but I never found it in a week of looking. Having said all that, these are minor - and more personal - problems. Would that most Linux distros offered these as the worst parts of the experience. That's something for all those critics who want to consolidate distros and resources to consider.

Chances are good that your finger will land on a distribution perfectly suited for older hardware, giving that aging machine new life. On newer hardware, those lightweight distributions run faster than any OS you have ever experienced. Xubuntu is one such distribution. Xubuntu is an official Ubuntu spin that opts for the Xfce desktop environment (which is what makes this distribution so fast). Xfce is not only very lightweight, but it is also highly flexible. You can bend and twist Xfce into just about any layout you want, but those new to Linux might want to leave the default settings as is - - because the default Xubuntu layout is as simple as it gets.

[Repeat] Simon Josefsson ☛ GitLab_Runner_with_Rootless_Privilege-less Podman_on_riscv64⠀⇛ Below I will guide you to install the GitLab Runner on the pre- installed Ubuntu 24.04 that ships with the P550, and configure it to use Podman in root-less mode and without the --privileged flag. Presumably you want to migrate to some other OS instead; hey Trisquel 13 riscv64 I’m waiting for you! I wouldn’t recommend using this machine for anything sensitive, there is an awful lot of non-free and/or vendor-specific software installed, and the hardware itself is young. I am not aware of any riscv64 hardware that can run a libre OS, all of them appear to require non-free blobs and usually a non-mainline kernel. * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Trying_to_understand_OpenID_Connect_(OIDC)_and its_relation_to_OAuth2⠀⇛ OAuth2 describes a HTTP-based protocol where a client (typically using a web browser) can obtain an access token from an authorization server and then present this token to a resource server to gain access to something. For example, your mail client works with a browser to obtain an access token from an OAuth2 identity provider, which it then presents to your IMAP server. However, the base OAuth2 specification is only concerned with the interaction between clients and the authorization server; it explicitly has nothing to say about issues like how a resource server validations and uses the access tokens. This is right at the start of RFC 6749: [...] * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Looking_at_OIDC_tokens_and_getting_information on_them_as_a_'consumer'⠀⇛ In OIDC, roughly speaking and as I understand it, there are three possible roles: the identity provider ('OP'), a Client or 'Relying Party' (the program, website, or whatever that has you authenticate with the IdP and that may then use the resulting authentication information), and what is sometimes called a 'resource server', which uses the IdP's authentication information that it gets from you (your client, acting as a RP). 'Resource Server' is actually an OAuth2 term, which comes into the picture because OIDC is 'a simple identity layer' on top of OAuth2 (to quote from the core OIDC specification). A website authenticating you with OIDC can be described as acting both as a 'RP' and a 'RS', but in cases like IMAP authentication with OIDC/OAuth2, the two roles are separate; your mail client is a RP, and the IMAP server is a RS. I will broadly call both RPs and RSs 'consumers' of OIDC tokens. * § idroot⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Postfix_on_CentOS_Stream_10⠀⇛ In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Postfix on CentOS Stream 10. Postfix is a powerful Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) that provides a robust solution for sending, receiving, and routing emails in GNU/Linux environments. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Terraform_on_Linux_Mint_22⠀⇛ Terraform has become an essential tool for DevOps professionals and system administrators who manage infrastructure as code. If you’re using Linux Mint 22 and want to leverage Terraform’s powerful capabilities for automating your infrastructure deployment, this comprehensive guide will walk you through various installation methods and post-installation configurations. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Abusive_Monopolist_Microsoft_Teams_on Fedora_42 [Ed: Proprietary spyware that gets access to many things it should not; use something else.]⠀⇛ Microsoft Teams has become an essential collaboration tool for organizations worldwide, enabling seamless communication through chat, video calls, file sharing, and integration with other Abusive Monopolist Microsoft services. For GNU/Linux users running Fedora 42, accessing Teams presents unique challenges, but several viable solutions exist. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Realtek_Wifi_Drivers_on_Manjaro⠀⇛ Manjaro GNU/Linux offers exceptional customization and performance, but setting up Realtek WiFi adapters often presents challenges for new users. Whether you’re migrating from backdoored Windows or simply struggling with wireless connectivity after a fresh installation, this comprehensive guide will help you get your Realtek WiFi working properly on Manjaro. * ⚓ Marian Bouček ☛ Ruby_on_Rails_on_FreeBSD⠀⇛ I decided to move back to FreeBSD after 2 years of running NixOS. One thing I appreciate on GNU/Linux is the ability to easily install Ruby on Rails framework. It’s a framework of my choice for creating web applications, so naturally I was curious to see how Ruby will work on FreeBSD too. My hobby application is using Rails 8 and Postgres, so nothing too fancy. Let’s deep dive into how it all went! * ⚓ Own HowTo ☛ How_to_install_coolify_on_Linux⠀⇛ coolify is an open source platform that allows you to self host apps, databases, web cms, and a lot more.

If you’re upgrading to webkitgtk-6.0, then you’re also upgrading your application from GTK 3 to GTK 4, and have to adapt to much bigger GTK API changes anyway, so this seemed like a good opportunity to break compatibility and fix old mistakes for the first time in a very long time. webkit2gtk-4.1 is exactly the same as webkit2gtk-4.0, except for the libsoup API version that it links against.

PewDiePie gained fame as a gaming YouTuber, even having the most popular channel for some time. Although the focus of his videos has largely shifted to more personal videos, as well as commentary on current trends, he remains an one of the most popular YouTubers. In his latest video, at the time of writing, PewDiePie detailed his switch to Linux—both Linux Mint and Arch—driven largely by the deteriorating Windows experience. PewDiePie specifically calls out Microsoft continually treating the user as if they don’t know what they want, trying to push its own services, forcing users to confirm multiple times to make basic preference changes, and the inundating users with ads in an operating system they paid for. PewDiePie has a very balanced take on his switch to Linux, breaking down the pros and cons.

While some are totally fine with it and feel comfortable using it as a daily driver, for others, it was a wake-up call for how Microsoft was going to handle its operating systems moving forward. For those people, some have found a newfound love for Linux as they migrate over and discover all of the stuff they missed out on. Now, PewDiePie has uploaded a video where he gushes over Linux and compares it directly to Windows. ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⡉⡀⠀⠊⠻⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠛⠉⠉⠉⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣿⡅⠙⣿⣿⣿⣽⡍⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⢠⠽⣿⣿⣿⠷⠂⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣽⣿⣿⠟⢛⣻⢿⣿⠛⠀⠀⢹⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢻⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⢀⣸⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣴⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡛⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⠛⣻⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⣶⣬⣍⣛⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡓⣷⠒⢌⣻⣿⠛⠩⣿⣛⣥⡶⠀⠀⢀⠀⠂⠀⠀⢿⡀⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⣄⣉⣉⣛⣻⣿⡟⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⢀⣿⠟⠉⠀⠀⠀⢸⣧⠀⠀⠎⠜⢳⣿⣿⣇⡈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠟⠉⢻⠟⠛⠛⠛⠁⠀⣠⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⠟⠃⠀⠈⣦⠀⢻⣿⣿⢣⣾⡿⠉⠉⠛⠉⠉⠛⠛⡜⠀⣼⠿⠻⠿⣿⣿⣶⣿⢛ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⠋⣿⣿⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣶⣀⣠⣤⣴⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⢆⠀⣿⣿⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢺⡆⠀⠀⡇⠀⡏⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⠇⢸ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⢹⣿⡄⠙⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢂⡇⣿⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠁⠀⠀⡇⠀⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⠀⢸ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠠⣿⣯⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⢹⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠓⠺⠁⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠙⢿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢄⠀⠀⠀⣀⡟⠻⠿⠷⠶⠶⠶⠦⠤⠤⠤⣤⣼⣧⣤⣄⣼⣿⣿⣏⣀⣹ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⣿⣿⣇⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠑⢤⣤⣤⣶⣤⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣿⡿⢻⣿⣿⣿⡗⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠑⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⡶⠋⠁⠀⠙⠛⠿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⡇⠘⣿⠟⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⢰⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴⣶⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣠⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⢸⣟⠂⠀⠀⢸⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⢿⣿⡟⢰⢶⠂⢸⠀⢠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⢉⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⣿⡇⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠓⢿⠘⠀⢸⠀⢸ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠖⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⢻⡇⠀⠀⠈⣏⣻⣄⡀⠀⢾⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣼⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⡎⣀⣴⣶⡄⠀⠀⢸⠁⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⢻⡟⠃⠘⠃⠀⠀⠀⠰⠀⠀⡿⠹⣷⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 2605 ➮ Generation completed at 02:50, i.e. 35 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
