I'm here to talk to you about our lord and savior Linux
1 comments

I’ve tried Linux mint and looked at a couple other distros. The customization of hiDPL is pretty much lacking in all distros I looked at or tried. You either get “normal”, which is simply too small or “double” which makes everything too big. This makes Linux unusable from an OS perspective at home for me. Do to my screen size and eyesight, it doesn’t work for me. I really want Linux to work btw.

I see how Linux is great for server stuff. But, the OS experience I had so far had been horrible. It feels like there are simply too many distros and not enough focus on just making a few really great ones. Instead, it feels like you have lots of just OK distros instead.

Okay, so no orvellian surveilance, but still rather have that than some UX paper cuts in unnamed distro.

Yea, good luck with that Mr Hacker dude.
