Cyb3rMaddy does more cyber security content, but she has a fair bit of Linux content too, same with LaurieWired.

VeronicaExplains is my favorite for pure Linux content.

Yup sorry, typo, I corrected it in my original comment. Weird it isn’t working for you, I think I have the F-droid version.

InnerTune uses YouTube music, so far it’s been really good. No sign in, no ads, decent quality, and grabs alternative versions like covers and acoustic versions too.

It allows you to download the songs, build a library, create playlists, and you can free listen to related music.

Edit: Corrected typo, it’s InnerTune.

Sea of thieves has been working on Linux for years, and really well. I regularly play it on both my Linux gaming rig and on my Steam Deck, it runs awesome on both.

Linux Mint OS, QBitTorrent for the client, Proton VPN for the VPN with qBitTorrent bound to only that interface and port to ensure no IP leaks.

Works Awesome.

As somebody who works in IT at a Windows-only environment, I know exactly what you mean.

I have to fight with Windows on a weekly basis. Driver issues, firmware issues, software crashes/lockups, performance issues, etc etc.

Just this week, I have two users experiencing issues with their monitors. Identical enterprise grade laptops, identical drivers, identical docking stations, all totally up to date on Windows 11. Their old Windows 10 computers worked fine. Still trying to figure out what’s wrong.

For what it’s worth, I’m strapped in right next to you.

I’ve used two, NameCheap, and PorkBun.

Hated Namecheap, would never use them again. Janky pricing, tons of email spam, terrible UI.

Porkbun has been pretty great. Simple, solid prices, easy to use, no issues for about a year and a half.

And still being forced to watch ads on most of the plans.

Speak for yourself, Jellyfin has been awesome for me. Fantastic piece of software.

Yeah, ironically Arch overall has been more stable for me than Fedora lol.

Debian of course is amazing.

Good point, I only a had a few AUR packages installed, so that probably made things more stable.

Yeah, not worth it to just have the command line unfortunately. 🫤

If I can find a solid job somewhere else, for sure.

Jellyfin is love, Jellyfin is life.

Meanwhile, I saw a post on r/debian a few weeks ago of a user running Debian 12 on a Pentium III server.

My 3rd and 4th gen i7 workstations are also running it like champs.

Timeshift has turned my system breaking updates and tinkering into a non-issue. I just set up all my systems with it right off the bat. One snapshot per day, one weekly, and one monthly.

Since doing that, I’ve never had to toss a totally borked install.

I was one of the lucky users who used Manjaro on my old laptop for over a year and never had any real problems.

I was very confused when I started getting more involved in the Linux community and kept hearing about how terrible Manjaro was.

For me, vanilla Fedora has actually been the most consistently problematic distro. I’ve had more random issues getting it set up and working properly than any other distro.

God bless Mint though, it has been basically flawless for years.
