Hey there #linux users, what #distro are you using and why? I used to run #archlinux, then #fedora. Currently on #ubuntu for the proprietary Nvidia support, though I generally prefer the vanilla gnome experience.
#XLibre became the default Xserver in #PrismLinux 2026.05.05. Please read the announcement at https://prismlinux.org/news/2026/05-05 and learn more about this #ArchLinux derivative at https://prismlinux.org. A big thank you to the maintainers of PrismLinux!

La razón es simple.
Justo ahora estoy teniendo problemas para instalar yazi y aerc. Resulta que hay un error con unos paquetes instalados, actualizar esos paquetes rompería GCC. La solución que me propone DeepSeek es actualizar todos los paquetes `pacman -Syu` pero la actualización es de 1.5Gb y creeme, que estando en Cuba eso no es muy gracioso.

Incluso estando en la WiFi, me demoraría al menos 40 minutos tomando puro sol... no gracias.

Hey y'all !

Today I resume work on the #XeroLinux TUI install script. Some awesome changes coming your way.

1st off, reworked the #BTRFS implementation adding Snapper and grub-btrfs support for snapshot management.

2nd take a close look at the attached screenshot. Working hard on that as we speak.

Enjoy ! ETA June.

Oh #AlpineLinux has apparently the same issue as #ArchLinux.
When you don't update it for an extended period of time and then just do "apk update; apk upgrade; reboot" then it'll shit itself...

And there wasn't even anything special in this VM.
1) XFCE
2) Tor
3) Firefox

Maintenant, je comprends mieux pourquoi je suis passé sur Bazzite Linux plutôt qu'un dérivé de Arch promettant monts et merveilles...

A chaque fois que j'ai quitté cette famille de distribution, c'est TOUJOURS suite à une mise à jour des paquets. Et franchement, j'ai plus envie de me casser la tête à comprendre ce qui a cassé pour réparer...

Dernier exemple en date, un conteneur Arch que j'utilisais pour certains outils en ligne.

Bon, un pacman -Syu a suffit pour le casser... Et comme un c*n, j'ai oublié de faire une sauvegarde...

Franchement, même Debian Sid, j'ai l'impression que c'est plus stable...
