Package managers have become so much better with dependencies. It's been a while since I've encountered an issue, with yay it very usually works out of the box.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Agreed. Though I do have recent experiences of dependency troubles. I really should get better at reporting them to the proper channels, but by the time I've worked out how to fix, I usually don't have the energy left... ๐Ÿ˜•

My stint with Ubuntu... 16? Did not end well.

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

You realize that 16 means 2016, right? That's almost 8 years ago. And even as someone who uses Linux I don't like Ubuntu. I highly recommend trying Mint, Fedora, or EndeavourOS (Arch)
