To be fair, nix is not super hard, it's just that its more than your typical distro. You'll run into rare compatibility issues. Yes, rare, but if you're not a tinkerer, you may not like it.
This sounds like people wanting to replace edge or IE with chrome, rather than wishing they can have Firefox.
This is how we will likely end up paying for services AND STILL having our data sold. It's just the nature of capitalism. Businesses have to grow, and in today's world selling data is always the natural progression towards it.
A parallel example is streaming services starting out as "tv but no ads and on demand!" or "just pay for the service and you won't see ads!" but now we are paying and there's still ads.
You made good money because of guilt tripping people into tipping 20% instead of demanding your employer pays you, and crying on social media about how waiters make almost nothing.
The entire reason people tip is out of sympathy, and restaurant workers really weaponized that. Instead of having trouble with your employer not paying you, you joined forces with them.
For the record I tip reasonably, but I find it crazy that restaurant workers do this.
The vast majority of anti-LGBT attacks in Europe, or even Germany specifically, are not Muslim.
I didn't talk about people in this thread. Sorry it wasn't clear. I'm only talking about the mod
That's awesome! Good luck on your journey and ask if any questions come up!
Daaamn 70 downvotes, I guess people are really attached to their IPAs
NixOS is a decent leap from Garuda as a first distro. And it may not be that good if the user isn't a programmer, which I'm not sure if OP is.
A lot of the comments don't fit your criteria. Everyone is just recommending the distro they like. Which is fine, but they should at least say that.
I personally don't have a good answer either. Most my experience is in minimal distros that let you built out those components yourself. It may be worth considering that option (in which case, Arch is a natural next step), but you have to explicitly install wayland / flatpak / kde / etc to fit your criteria.
I think from Garuda to slackware is too large of a leap
I personally don't fully agree. Libertarianism just doesn't work at all. It is not even a complete system from a logical sense. It falls apart when faced with basic scrutiny, or they just theorize a system that's basically the same as a central government but with a private entity name stamped on it.
It is an ideology stemming from a basic principle, but they sadly don't seem to think of the entire system as a whole.
