Probably the majority of Windows users I meet ‘don’t care’ about security not because they’re ignorant or irresponsible but because they...
As a lot of folks believe, Endeavour is not a continuation of Antergos but a completely different distro. The only common factor is some community...
I'm not a great lover of Arch based systems or rolling releases but if I had to pick one it would be this. The obvious talent carried forward from...
That was actually my point although it maybe wasn't clear how I'd written it. In one setup or another I currently have KDE versions of Debian,...
It would be useful especially for new Linux converts to have some clarification about exactly what ‘stable’ and ‘light’ means. Regarding the...
For me FlareGet works fine on every distro I've ever used so don't feel any need to change. https://flareget.com/
On my properly installed system the repos sync in seconds and the update completes as expected. To be honest it’s something I don’t sit and time...
‘Best of’ will always be a subjective term. The Trabant for instance could easily be described as a ‘best of’ car since you could buy one for a...
I appreciate the time and effort needed to publish Linux reviews but also believe a footnote containing updated information would be helpful...
So it might be helpful to note this in your assessment since the very reason for the negative review was fixed 7 months ago.
Like a lot of Linux users I'm always tempted to try the 'next best thing' but like the recent Condres OS most don't last too long. :) Every month...
I'm not sure I understand how Debian users could ever be classified as "comatose" because of the repositories. Maybe you could explain what I'm...
Just wondered why you included Zorin 12.4 Core and marked it down for performance when version 15 was released 7 months ago... "Speed has been a...
Xfce looks tired now and most distros require some serious tweaking to achieve a smart looking desktop. One exception that hits you out of the box...
Zorin 15.1 gets my vote. The bootloader can be a bit ify on drives containing other systems but otherwise it's an easy distro to set up and use...
Regarding Kubuntu 19.10 On my Dell OptiPlex 3060 with SSD and i3, copying large files, emptying the trash or flashing a drive using balenaEtcher...
Manjaro does a lot of things right including recognition of identity loyalty with a zillion custom wallpapers. Problem is it’s rife with update...
Thanks for that but no Firetray support or equivalent extension so I'll stick with the outdated FossaMail.
There is a ‘New Mail Indicator’ shell extension for Gnome supporting several clients but it won’t give you a message count....
Not sure which review you read but some are not based on how the distro was developped to be so you can end up with a slanted vision of how it is....
BunsenLabs Helium (from your list) is an excellent option. Fast operational speed. Doesn’t look ‘cheap’ like some distros in this category. Easy...
One of my test machines is a Samsung RV415 with an AMD Dual Core E450. It has a great display but everything else is pretty dire. :) I doubled the...
Sorry but this just isn’t true. It used to be regarding KDE but not any more. In any case there will always be variables between Linux systems...
I always had issues trying to install anything Ubuntu or Debian based onto an external drive whereas .rpm distros succeeded every time. I read so...
With so many possible settings the ability to export the final configuration, including the chosen theme, is a godsend. You can then replicate the...
