A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I just installed Mint on my personal desktop. So far it's pretty solid and I'm not missing anything from windows. A little bit of glitchiness but not bad. And while I'm a developer, I'm not exactly a Linux power user - outside of basic directory commands, I have to Google anything.

All I'm saying is from the end user perspective it's fine other than Firefox tabs crash on me from time to time. Idk about from a provisioning or management standpoint.

Provisioning isn't bad, management isn't either. I actually prefer it in regards to Windows, but I am very biased. Ansible and Satellite is the chef's kiss IMO, but people make strong points against it. I personally use Fedora and macOS, I totally get the comfy feeling Linux can give.
