  • are they just kissing Microsoft's ass?

    This. 100%. It's why I don't understand folks recommending Lenovo laptops to run Linux on. Lenovo is in bed well Microsoft and caters to whatever they want. SecureBoot, modern standby, etc. We need more vendors supporting open source firmware like Coreboot.

    Edit: feel free to refute me instead of just down voting.

  • Fedora is probably the closest you can practically get.

  • I bet there exist some Linux installs out there with a different shell than 'bash',

    100%. Alpine is one such distro.

  • Latest models suck. I have a T15p and it's garbage.

  • The problematic models we have are all T series.

  • We have nothing but problems with the ThinkPads issued by my IT department. Multiple models. They're not what they used to be.

  • Better to just buy a System 76 or Framework.

  • Agreed. Most Youtube thumbnails are cancer. Bug eyes with mouth wide open or pointing at something. Enough already.

  • Interesting. I didn't realize it was structured this way. I thought it was similar to NixOS for some reason.

  • the only OS to make sense really

    How does it make more sense than Fedora KDE?

  • Are you a manager by any chance?

  • This seems like wishful thinking to me. Is there any data that supports that with more users comes more FOSS developers?

  • But why do we want more proprietary software running on Linux? Wouldn't we be recreating the same situation that Windows has?

    Edit: Why downvote me instead of replying with a reason why I'm "wrong" or discussing further? Is Lemmy turning into Reddit already?

  • I've never understood how this is good for Linux. Why is having more users so important?

  • Besides the installer, in what ways do Debian and Fedora hold your hand?
