Didnt boot it in the last 12 months, maybe one day again for some games

OpenSUSE too

It sounds like verifying the integrity of servers to me and used by the administrator

Can you check the cpu frequency? Maybe it’s in a sort of low power mode with low frequencies when it’s slow.

Also use “…”, i.e. export PATH="$PATH:.." so that it won’t break with whitespace in paths involved

For me its especially the DE

OpenSUSE MicroOS is meant for servers and runs well on my VPS for 1-2 years already

I actually would recommend it for that reason. It’s different from traditional desktops and polished at the same time, you dont need to fiddle with it. I think it’s good way to show people that alternative (to windows) doesnt mean bad.

It’s basically a read only mirror with links to the right place. That makes it easier to find or clone for many people

But is that really coupled to windows? Take office for example, i think it also runs on MacOS and browsers. Why wouldnt they be able to make a Linux Version?

Talented people working on Intel GPU drivers sounds great.

In case you use GNOME it has keybinds you can map to console commands built in

apparently btrfs can get corrupted if it unexpectedly loses power?

What do you mean by that?

Corruption on power loss is something that journaling should prevent and modern filesystems do that. So btrfs should be as safe as other modern filesystems.

Edit: Btrfs does no journaling, it implements resilience with another mechanism, namely Copy on write.

You said you tried Apps from F-Droid, still FossWallet in F-Droid works good for me.

GNOME because it works out of the box like GNOME

Weird, but good that you found out!

Are you sure the right partitions have enough space? On my tumbleweed the installer made several subvolumes i think

Alternatively you can configure a hotkey in the GNOME Settings, or the equivalent for other DEs, to execute a bash script or anything.

No issues except that if you want to source files to set env vars you might have to use a plugin (foreignenv in my case)

I still write scripts in bash. But fish’s command completion is incredible. Idk, maybe other shells can be that good as well, but fish does out of the box.

Edit: Also some people used to bash wondered what that nice shell is on a server we administrate together. They had no problems using it coming from bash.

And sticking with POSIX is good if you want to stay portable, but my shell mustn’t be portable. It should be friendly and reduce mental load.
