Any recommendations for a linux distro that i can set up and be reasonably sure my non techy SO won’t break accidentally? The set up doesn’t have to be easy it just has to not break once I leave her alone with it. My first thought was popOS.

My plan is to have 2 profiles and not give her access to sudo. I just don’t want to have to go into it unless she needs a new program.

    Here’s the bazzite attempt at viral marketing, everyone.

    Remember when we saw it for MX Linux?

    Be careful about what you install on your computers.

    Edit: The incessant, vehement backlash against calling out shilling is always a telltale sign of shilling. Shills are not allowed to let people accuse them of shilling without going through their playbook of what to say next.

      I mean it’s not perfect but what is?

      I tried MX Linux for a while, it was okay. did I miss something?

        I tried mx for 7 minutes. it installed nvidia drivers and that killed it. off to the next distro I hopped, knowing the problem could have been easy to fix. shame, it seemed interesting.

        I never mentioned perfection.

        I hope people reading this can start to recognize shilling when they see it.

          “Someone mentions a distro they like” ≠ shilling. I use Bazzite and have been for months. Before that, used Nobara, EndeavourOS, and vanilla Fedora, along with a number of others I tried when I was distro-hopping. Wholeheartedly believe that Bazzite is currently the best generally-available Linux distro for gaming and is up there for general use. It’s not perfect, but nothing is - it gets close for the use-cases I mentioned, though.

      Bro I’m the lead developer and I’m just now seeing this, just accept you called the viral marketing wrong.

      We’ve grown to the point that when I market something, I tell people not to listen to me because I’m biased.

      You know the build scripts which turn Fedora Kinoite into Bazzite are all open on GitHub, right… 🤦
