Wait, encryption counts as bullshit now? ;)

I think I’ve used it once in 15 years or so. It’s typically easier to go with bash or Python.

I think a lot of people dislike Ubuntu because of Gnome and Snaps, which is weird to me. You can fairly easily change desktop environment and most Snaps have apt or Flatpak alternatives.

I don’t use Endeavor or Arch (btw), but KDE Plasma is amazing. I’d probably be happy with any distro as long as it supported plasma.

Kate, Terminator, k4dirstat and the amazing clipboard history app in KDE.

Plasma is amazing. I’m never going back to Gnome and am ready to become a contributor just because I like the DE so much.

Snaps. Everyone seems to hate them for ideological reasons rather than practical reasons. But for me, they just work. And if Canonical gets out of line, there’s already been proof of concepts of third-party snap repositories, so that’s a moot point.

Flatpaks seem like a solution in search of a problem to me. Not everything is a gui app, so not sure why the devs aren’t supporting cli apps well. But the biggest problem is that most software I use simply isn’t available as flatpaks.
