- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudo
in Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

I mean, I'm on Debian and I'm on the same install instance I've had for almost four years now. I'm constantly reading about how some of you people keep hosing your other distros with a normal update...
Fedora is security? I mean, don't get me wrong, I love it, it's my daily driver after trying just about every distro under the sun, but I would've figured something like Qubes would stand head and shoulders above it.
Qubes is specialised, whereas Fedora is a general purpose distro with a security focus.
i would say fedora is the "security distro for every day people" kind of distro
Fedora 41 is now the 'wait 45 seconds every boot because you don't have a tpm chip' version.
Can i get some context please? My fedora install wasn't using TPM, i had to manually configure it; i haven't noticed any difference in boot speed with or without TPM encryption
When you run OpenSUSE, you can feel it was made by Germans.
The installer is a beautiful example of German engineering.
The package manager is a perfect example of German over-engineering.
If you run it with KDE, you have 2 redundant GUI admin tools for every config in the system, and 4 for setting up printers.
Sees "Germany"
Die Kommentarspalte dieser Pfostierung befindet sich ab sofort im Besitz der Bundesrepublik Deutschland meine Kameraden!
Ahoi, Genosse! Wie läuft die Germanisierung? Verbreiten Sie erfolgreich das Wort von Linux in Ihrem Heimatland?

Ohhh ich spreche auch Wurst. Wie geht es ihnen mein Herr, toetet den fuehrer und benutzt Linux statt Fenster.
OpenSUSE is the "all of the above" of Linux distros
It is? I had tumbleweed installed and switched to fedora after only a few weeks because it kept freezing.
oh my girlfriend's laptop also just keeps freezing with opensuse. do you have an nvidia card by any chance?
Qubes is the actuall security distro tho.
Qubes is specialised, though. The four distros above are general purpose with a focus.
How slow is qubes? I imagine that virtualising everything is slow. Does it have a containerised mode?
It really isnt that slow virtualization overhead is pretty minimal nowdays.
It's decent as long as you have adequate numbers of cpu cores and memory for the apps/VMs you run
As slow as you expect, at least on anything that requires gpu such as watching videos
