The app has always been trash. Idk how people can take using it for long periods of time. When I went back for a bit (during r/place), the deterioration of content was obvious. Don’t take my word for it - even redditors know it’s getting worse. All they have now is the amount of users.

You’re right. The devs know it can be confusing to new guys and are planning to do something about it. Idk what the progress is, though. They seem to be pretty busy making lemmy stable first.

Ubuntu. Pretty sure you already have an idea why. Lol.

OpenSUSE. I’ve always had issues trying to use it, from zypper to updates to bootloops. It’s also sluggish compared to other distros (yes, same DEs usually) on my laptop. I’ve tried at least 3x trying to get why a lot of people love it. It’s just not for me.

I’ve never tried Manjaro yet, but coming from Arch and EOS I don’t think I ever will.

Hey. Thank you for responding. I tried deleting my comment since I reread your post and you were pretty clear why you were considering it. It looks like the delete request didn’t push through on your end (it’s happened before to me lol). My bad - I sometimes get ahead of myself. 😅

And yes, I definitely understand (and agree) why this is concerning to you. Bigotry really is a big problem, imho. I do hope it doesn’t become a big problem on kbin.

Again, thanks for responding. Have a great day! :)

May I ask why you posted this? Was there a post/community/behavior that you saw that was questionable?

I ask because I don’t think I’ve seen (yet) any offending posts from kbin so I was quite surprised to read your post. But then again I’m on smaller instances so maybe I don’t see everything you guys see. :)

It’s great. I’m on vanilla Arch now, but EOS would be my first choice if I ever wanted to change to another arch-based distro. The only time I ever encountered any issue (that’s not my fault) was the grub issue last year iirc. Other than that, it’s been pretty smooth. It’s basically Arch with a few QOL features preinstalled.

Edit: just like you, I was on Mint for years before switching to EOS. It’s easy, don’t worry. You’ll want to start reading, though. The wiki and aur are great.
