@wyatt8740 @amyipdev I read that as Jewish for a sec, didn't understand thought for a moment you're Jewish and decided Ubuntu isn't Kosher for whatever reason

@amyipdev @wyatt8740 yeah stuff's absolutely crazy here on these topics.
But truth is even christians eat somewhat Kosher/Halal, it's simply culture by now
Some places sell both Khalavi and Basari, but very few do so together, and when they do, it's clearly marked (same for "contains alcohol")
The "kosher" sign mainly tells you that it's not open on Saturdays nowadays. I eat Kosher and idc about the sign.
Fancy Tel Avivian/Eilatian restaurants are probably the only place you have to worry about truly non kosher/Haram stuff.

@amyipdev @wyatt8740 yeah, but it is UX wise, I'm talking about desktop OSes.

@[email protected] @[email protected] assuming an initial installation of core debian, are debian branches/spins (thinking devuan) reasonable alternatives for systemd avoidance?

@wyatt8740 @amyipdev I don't think you count at this point, you're too power usery for my fear of installing stuff that can do admin stuff without prepending sudo/run0
-
@amyipdev @wyatt8740 I heard they're pretty reasonably up to date, I know someone who runs one of them, they have the same kernel version I did on Fedora stable.
-
@wyatt8740 @amyipdev I don't determine that, and it's irrelevant anyway, Ubuntu has snap by default, "these things shouldn't be pre-installed" doesn't apply—I simply said having *installable* flatpak doesn't really count for the quality of an OS that is supposed to be out of the box.

@laxla @amyipdev does ubuntu come with flatpaks or snapsfor all the software you run already locally installed out of the box?
if not, then flatpak or snap on its own is useless, is it not?
package managers are there out of the box in order to install software that isn't there out of the box.
snap does the same thing in ubuntu but is basically another worse package manager bolted on. -
No, and no, good point though.
Windows doesn't come with a proper package manager either, so you could make that argument, too.
I don't think there's much to this convo anymore though, it's mostly about terms by now.

With at least Linux-based systems there days (or at least a couple decades ago?), you shouldn't really have "desktop OSes"*, you have systems you can configure to use in the way you want. Choice and versatility at least used to be one of the big advantages of Linux-based systems). -
@laxla @amyipdev @wyatt8740
* There is an issue here, which is that "desktop" can be used in conflicting ways: sits on desk, has X11, has some window management, has a full-featured DE that can kinda feel like an OS of its own, or "mirrors [other OS]".
A lot of these can be used from the same distribution, requiring only configuration, so it doesn't work to classify them. -
@njsg @amyipdev @wyatt8740 the idea is, the Ubuntu/Fedora Workstation use case. Simple, but not for total newbies, out of the box, without the limitations of immutability or ssh-centrism (servers).
