Hmm... I may have to try Manjaro again, but the simple fact that there are 2 GUI package managers is not a great sign for total noobs. The main reason I've been staying away from it tho is the cert controversy and the arch repo ddos.

Yeah I know it has a GUI app for installing software, though IIRC isn't it more similar to something like Synaptic than GSoftware?
I've actually had pretty bad experiences with Manjaro. No. 1, it cones with a lot of "apps" that aren't obvious in what they do, and package management on Arch and Arch-based distros is very very not obvious to beginners (Syu? What does Syu mean. Wait, you mean I'm updating my whole system every time I want to install something? Where's GNOME Software? Etc)
Makes sense! I guess without an antivirus there's no way of distinguishing legitimate activity from illegitimate activity at the system level when dealing with downloaded programs. Also, my Voyager app decided that your "link" was actually a link and tried to make an embed lol
That makes a lot of sense, thanks!
I know nothing about software. That's... Why I asked.
So... Windows?
Fascinating. Good to know...
Laughs in framework with four identical USB-C ports that can do anything
Any particular reason you want Gab and not Mastodon that it's based on?

My favorite has been Sandstorm.io ever since I discovered it. Sure, it doesn't look as pretty as the others, but it's super easy if you use one of their free hostnames.
