I don’t know man, I run Linux on all my stuff and I am lazy as shit.

I run Arch on my desktop with a 3090 and xfce (forced xorg) and have had no issues.

I run Opensuse on my laptop that gets really great battery life and isn’t even listed in the Wikis. This is my primary work laptop

I dual boot Asahi on a MBP.

I agree with the sentiment of your post being doing go balls out on a work machine but it’s not nearly as bad or unstable as you make it sound

The 117HD? It works fine in Linux if you run Runelite, either via bolt or just the raw appimage

You seem to be missing the forest because of all the trees in your way. The statement to not use Manjaro has nothing to do with KDE or any other DE/WM and everything to do with the development of the OS.

Manjaro has a history of being sloppy especially with web security. The reason people suggest Endeavour has the same goal (more user friendly arch) without some of those drawbacks.

There’s also an argument to be made for preserving the “hardware” - those machines don’t last forever. the Analouge guys recently made (or are making?) an FPGA that is compatible with all of the Turbografix hardware paraphernalia which is arguably just as important as the actual software

It’s not about the ascii dragon, it’s that Kali Linux is known amongst Linux communities to attract (script) kiddies / wannabe hackers.

And Tux is a stone cold G. If that penguin alone didn’t bring you over to Linux you have brain problems.
