vettnerkwhich linux distro do you NOT like, and why?
I don’t like Ubuntu because of Snaps and because I never successfully upgraded from one release to the next without having to reinstall.
I don’t like Mint because it’s just Ubuntu with even more stuff added.
I don’t like OpenSuse because when you install and administer it, you can feel it was made by Germans.
I don’t like Manjaro because it’s unstable by design due to the dev’s lazyness.
I don’t like Slackware because it installs 12 different programs for the same purpose but not the ones everyone wants, only comes with KDE and throws rocks at you when you try to make it do something it wasn’t designed for by its Benevolent Dictator Who Knows Best (like boot from UEFI).
I generally don’t like distros that are just another distro with a different default package selection and some themes and GUI admin tools tacked on.
I don’t like OpenSuse because when you install and administer it, you can feel it was made by Germans.
What does that mean?
It’s overengineered.
Ok, could you give an example? I never used OpenSUSE, just curious.
Yast. I love zypper and opi but yast is super weird. Like if you want to do things that you can do with yast, you probably know how to do it on terminal.
