Should I like tell you that ur like wrong or sumthin? Cus I will lol /j

OK critique:
Ubuntu is relatively closed/restricted compared to some other Linux distros. Its reliance on Snaps is concerning because its a closed ecosystem (open source client, closed source backend, no option to add other source repos).

Bad critique:
Um🤚🤓, actually you should be using security hardened NixOS using your own custom kernel sysctl config 🥵, using GrapheneOS's hardened-malloc and chrony.conf 🥸, and Tor Browser installed inside a kata-container and sandbox with Bubblejail🤯. All compiled from source, duh. 🥱

You seem knowledgeable about this and I know it's not entirely relevant but I'm planning to swap to Linux soon, what distro would you reccomend I start with?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

...Ubuntu.

Linux mint if you don't plan to learn the ecosystem in detail, Manjaro if you have cold feet about wanting to learn the ecosystem, Artix, Arch or Nix if you want to learn the ecosystem.
