  • I use debian 12 on my work laptop. I agree with your points but I still use it because I want the fundamental system to be stable, and then any software I want to be more up-to-date I build from source (tmux, alacritty, neovim) or download separately (vscode/slack/joplin).

    I used to use ubuntu because it worked so well with my hardware ootb, but I got tired of snap.


  • I will sound really nit-picky buy the biggest thing keeping me away from using KDE is that accent-colored bar on each window in the taskbar, and the different coloring of open/focused/minimized windows. I want it sleek but not cluttery.

    I’ve tried about a dozen themes but I couldn’t find any that got rid of that and looked good. I tried fixing it myself but editing svg files was too difficult for me.

    I hope plasma 6 adds more options for this but I’m not holding my breath.


  • Something i especially appreciate about winget us that it will “index” (or whatever you want to call it) software that was installed outside of it. For example if I install app XYZ through an .msi setup file, I can update it using winget.

    So it seems I can also use scoop or chocolatey to install new software and then keep managing them through winget.
