At the end of the day… Cloud storage is just using someone else’s computer.

Agreed. Although I will say… While people not reading the articles was extremely common on reddit… Sadly, I feel like Lemmy is even worse about it.

With AI absolutely exploding… It’s very easy to ask for step by step directions to accomplish things. AI clearly still needs to mature… But… The times I’ve asked it for some basic, step by step directions, it’s been effective.

While I don’t disagree videos make a lot of things easier (I for sure am a visual learning, no question), the step by step instructions for things I’ve gotten have been good, and very easy to follow.

Man… That’s fucked… But I sure as hell did just share this with some of my buddies. Haha

See… I’m the opposite… I change and hip around and reinstall across various machine so often, changing the setting has just become second nature… I don’t even think about it anymore! Hahahaha

Just to add to this… I rarely print anything, but my wife (an elementary school teacher) prints all kinds of stuff! We picked up an eco tank printer from Epson. We’ve had it now for a coupe years and it’s been fantastic! We would replace ink cartridges a few times a year previously… Where as with the eco tank we do about once a year. The print quality has held up, and it’s just been a good little work horse for her!

Nvidia breaks on me at least twice a year using Tumbleweed. But… That’s my own fault, as I just update almost daily… And too many times I’ve done an update that breaks nvidia. I can’t speak to this issue with leap, as I’ve not run Leap on my machine with an nvidia card.

I’ve run both Opensuse Leap and Nixos with good luck. As someone else mentioned, it really just boils down to the wifi adapter being shit… But that aside, everyrhing else seemed to work well for me with leap and nix.

+1 for Lenovo. My Gen5 x1 carbon is without question, the single best Linux on a laptop experience I’ve ever had. Running tumbleweed as my daily driver, fwiw.

“There is also opensuse Leap wich is a rolling release distribution.”

Leap is not a rolling release. Tumbleweed is the rolling release.

You needed to read between the lines. People were clearly looking for piss drinking tips…not actual Italian restaurants.

Best is subjective. As someone who has been using Linux exclusively for over 12 years now, I really don’t like pop at all. I’ve tried it several time over the last couple years and just don’t enjoy it.

Preferred daily: Suse tumbleweed with plasma Secondary choice (and it’s a close second): NixOS (not beginner friendly!!) Beginner recommendation: Mint Cinnamon or Mate.

I’m currently running (and have been for well over a year), an x1 carbon 5th Gen. I daily it for work, running Opensuse tumbleweed.

It’s arguably the greatest laptop running Linux experience I’ve had. I have a 2015 MacBook pro running Opensuse Leap, which is also really good. But the keyboard is far better on the X1C.

Im bouncing between my desk and various buildings all day for work, so I never really stretch the batteries wings. It’s good for up to 3 hours (depending on work load) I feel like… But I’ve not really tested it. I always have the machine with me and could charge it up and put it through its paces this weekend if it would be of interest to you? Obviously this machine has been around awhile, and I’m not even certain of the battery’s health.

Edit: Just wanted to add, 10/10, would HIGHLY recommend!

Omg… I can’t even tell you how happy I am about this!! I missed sync. I knew I did, but I truly didn’t realise how much I missed it!

This is amazing! Thank you for all the hard work!!
