Just about everything, really. I’m not a Linux wizard or anything, just to preface.

I like the amount of control it lets me have over everything while also not allowing me to “accidentally” the whole everything. I like that it’s fast and not resource intensive. Love that I can run it on my crunchy old netbook, and yet also my gaming desktop. Also like that it’s Xfce which I’m fond of.

I guess most of that can also apply to many other distros, too. To summarize, suppose I just prefer it.

MX Linux is my daily atm. I tend to hop around every few months (normally I use Mint.). Honestly, I’m enjoying it far more than Mint and don’t see that changing.

Dunno about what’s up with distrowatch; just chiming in as that one MX Linux person.

Just dropping in to say FreeTube is excellent. Carry on.

I use Xfce daily. I honestly prefer it to others. Never had any issues with it, either.

I just set this up a few nights ago. It’s been really nice!

Surprise, surprise!

I’m glad to see apps being made for Lemmy, but being open source for me is a must.

Sound advice, and makes a huge difference when everyone collectively does it!

I didn’t know this existed or that I needed it, but now I know. Cannot wait for this!!

Literally choked on my water mid sip when I read this. Thank you. 🙏

Thanks!

I’m going to try that one out and see how I like it. Btw your avatar is very cute!

I don’t have any particular needs for a launcher, but I just like having options for things, etc.

Honestly, looking through a few I’ve seen so far… they just aren’t terribly appealing. I’ll probably be in the same boat as you.

UGH that is awful.

Thanks for posting that. Goodbye Nova.

Are there any launchers that are recommended?

I second f-droid. It’s really good!

I’m using NewPipe for a YouTube replacement, but I hear good things about ReVanced!

Thanks for clarifying!

Thank you!

It looks like FreeTube actually has the option to route through invidious for all of those benefits. That’s really cool!

Thanks!

I had no idea there was a new fork(?) of Vanced. I was actually using Vanced previously, and really enjoyed that. Does it still require you to have a Google / YouTube account to login, or can it pull a NewPipe / FreeTube with profiles?

I’ve really enjoyed it.

If you like Supreme Commander, you will be sooo very happy with this.
