Sure hate is an opinion, but an extreme one. And history tells countless stories on how that’s bad.

I’m currently daily driving LMDE after some time. For OP it probably won’t matter so choosing main line mint might be better.

Linux Mint all the way.

Yeah that happens. I don’t like it too, it’s lazy writing at least.

Can you identify it stylistically?

Probably not 100% of the time, but yeah. Most times, it’s identifiable.

If there were various Simpsons style comics and tv shows but you don’t like that animation style, would it be fair to lump them together?

I think this doesn’t work. First of all is anime filled with many different styles, but also a much broader field than stuff that looks like the Simpsons. Also, if something is animated similarly to the Simpsons, that does not really say anything about it’s content, just a medium again.

I don’t want it and I think it’s off-putting to see rices of Linux that by and large feature waifu trash backgrounds, but that’s me. I don’t like the visuals and I find the translated dialogue to be both simplistic and hyperbolic as a generality.

That’s totally alright, you don’t need to like it. But you also shouldn’t be putting it down generally. “I don’t like anime” is alright, a statement of opinion, but saying “I absolutely hate anime/manga” is just offensive. Feel free not to like and avoid it, but why hate an animation style that is loved by many.

I personally don’t watch that much anime and don’t read manga at all, but still, there are some diamonds there. It actually made me learn Japanese, and I’m still going strong after 10 Months. Anime gives me and many others comfort and entertainment, sometimes with the ability to break the everyday.

Btw to talk some more about Linux stuff, fcitx5 is pretty amazing. Typing the thousands of Japanese/Chinese and other characters is no easy feat to integrate well I assume, but combined with anthy or mozc it gets the job done really well.

Why throw anime/manga into this same pot? That’s like saying you don’t like movies with real actors as a medium.

The Burgundian lullaby perhaps

Still weird to run it like that from a terminal, but you do you

Ignoring that vscode cannot math the two giants: exe? Really?

The whole point of using Linux is the freedom that we can use what we want. Don’t play down other DEs you might not like, because the variety is what makes our environment amazing.

I just use the nextcloud client. Does the job and looks fancy while at it. But you obviously need a nextcloud server for that.

I’d recommend debian - the universal operating system.

If your software does not exist for debian, your software does not exist. (Ubuntu is just debian with extra corpo flavour)

From what I hear the only thing that doesn’t work is reaction emojis in meetings.

Best thing available on windows, still suffers from running on windows, but inside is a pretty usable Linux distro

Teams and outlook have both pretty good third party flatpaks.

Lmde with plasma is great, I just switched last weekend.

Had a weird issue on cinnamon that maxed out my GPU way too fast (Intel igpu), but it doesn’t happen in other DEs, so I just went back to plasma.

Android phones have USB debugging options, which can be used to mirror the screen in another device (with input too). Besides that, you can take screenshots and read them by connecting the phone with USB and looking at the generated image files.

I once turned a phone with a broken screen into a server like this. It took a good amount of fiddling and guessing where exactly a button is, but it works.

Sometimes port numbers is all you need

Note: QUIC is not really a transport layer protocol but uses UDP and builds atop of it.

Where is “here”?
