Tonight I am about to install endless os for my non technical partner. Do you think that is a good idea? Would you do the same?

Turns out she needs a bit of proprietary software (pixum for photo books) that I could not install on EndlessOS. So I had to change course and installed pop os. So far I am pleasantly suprised. Even though I thought I would not like it, their take on GNOME makes sense to me. Tiling is fun.

PopOS is currently developing their own spin on a immutable OS, but that’s still a long way from shipping to users. I’m curious, if other distros broke, why would it be different with current PopOS?

Did not know this. Immutable Ubuntu plus flatpack sounds awesome. Not sure what to think about their plans to fork cosmic from GNOME.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
