the distro’s tooling usually works best in that distro. not really linux but it seemed like many BSD devs use a different OS on their dev workstation tho.

there’s a ublock origin/ublacklist filter that kinda does this

fyi the 2008 macbook probably throttles the processor to around 1ghz when used without battery. on windows i could work around it by using some program to disable BD_PROCHOT(?), but failed to do so on linux.

Why though? I don’t like it personally but it’s my #1 recommendation usually. (can’t recommend slackware to noobs)

If they have issues they’re gonna ask me for tech support, and I don’t know how to use immutable distros (lol)
