As much as I love using Linux, and wish people used it more, I will (try) to be the first to say:

There is no "best" in Linux.
There is no best distro. There's no best desktop environment. There's no best app.
All of that absolutist, best of 2026 nonsense has as much thought and consideration as a techbro using ChatGPT to write the speech he'll give you before laying everyone off.
There is no best in Linux. Anyone who says that is a damned liar, including myself.
There is only "best" for *you*.
@socketwench clearly you have never heard of Hannah Montana linux

I will be uncompromising on this:
Its not the distro. It's not the desktop environment. Its not using "the right apps" or "the right hardware".
I don't help anyone put Linux onto any system unless they are willing to *learn*.
If you don't have time, don't have the patience, don't have the will to learn and solve problems... I can't help you. You'll just be angry and frustrated and hate the whole OS. And I'll hate myself for upsetting you vicariously.
THIS.
Believe it or not, I use Phorge to track every issue I encounter on my production machine, which runs Fedora Linux 42. Before that, I used Redmine.
So yeah, if you are not willing to learn, maybe Linux is not for you.

@socketwench I'd go even further: There is a "best" for *you*, *at this time*, *for this purpose*.
Software is a tool. Use the right tool for the right job. And spend some time familiarising yourself with a new tool before you us it to ruin that heirloom :D

@socketwench I'd say that if you've never switched OS on your phone or desktop before (eg, between iOS/Android or Windows/Mac), then you're going to have a much harder time switching to Linux.

@socketwench but we can still make fun of Arch guys, right?

@jamie
Well, someone still needs to decide at some point whether to abolish copyright or start enforcing it again, and at that point it could become a huge problem for anyone who has incorporated stolen code into their code base.
-
@jamie @aeva I suspect that courts would not be favorable to this reading, and would buy the (bullshit, IMO) argument that sufficient human interaction with the code "heals" the copyrightability of the result, and more importantly that they would not press the applicant to show much work when it comes to "sufficient"
but we're only going to find out if and when it's tested. The Copyright Office is doing the best they can do and making it clear that they won't let "AI" waste their time with copyright registrations (which are not required to legally protect a work, they're just paperwork really)

@macronaut Possibly. The next two posts in the thread have a little more detail on my understanding of the current state of affairs there.
