Deleted my comment because I decided I’m not informed enough to say anything but it was the first I had heard of Syria being involved. I knew about Lebanon and Iran

I don’t really think that’s fair. I agree with your suggestion that it should be a multiplatform DE rather than just its own distro but I think having polished and design opinionated distros is important. I know a few Mac guys who have become interested in Linux when they heard about ElementaryOS.

I get that a lot of people hate on GNOME too for being annoying to customise and being highly opinionated but I think that’s the key to getting the average person interested in Linux. The average person just wants their desktop to look nice out of the box and maybe offer a dark mode. Anything more than that gets too complicated.

Edit: and yeah having access to programs like the MS apps is important but it’s not like that has to come before having an appealing desktop

Like 50. I used to have a ridiculous amount of sunglasses I got given as free merch. Nowadays I just have a prescription pair of sunglasses I replace every few years

RetroArch is great though. I set it up for my mum on an rpi with a bunch of preinstalled roms and there’s been no issues. The controller worked out of the box and everything runs smoothly.

Can you use the touchbar at all or do you basically just not have any FN keys?

I’m not really a zoomer but I’m also not really a millennial. (and definitely not any other generation)

I feel pretty much the same as when off of them but my anxiety isn’t nearly as crippling. There are some side effects like a dulling of emotions but to me it’s so worth it
