Just to add: some folders' files might need modifications in the new system, e.g. .config/
As an unhappy user impacted by this and previous change(s) related to overclocking on RDNA3 I have highlighted the ongoing process.
Well, apparently, after just a few years the ability to control GPU operation in Linux will slide down considerably.
Please give a try for btop - not Rust based, but pretty good and seem to be superior to btm.
Just to add - gitui doesn't (yet) have the commit signing, so for commiting stuff you still have to use command line, but other features are pretty useful.
sway - stable and productive. Hyprland - beautiful, but performance is worse. i3 - same as sway, but sometimes better for legacy X11 stuff or applications that are still buggy at Wayland
The huge amount of grind is what made it un-fun for me.
I'm not sure the UI/UX is anyhow related to kernel development.
I3/Sway/Hyprland/other WMs are already much more superior to anything that can be achieved in Win/Mac desktops in terms of flow and performance. Only polishing is needed. Other desktop options like Gnome/KDE are fine and more lightweight desktops are okay too. They need polishing too, but already great.
Dynamic languages are good for prototyping, especially if a lot of libraries available
In fact it would help game development as much as "similar" approach helps the web grow the way you don't need to reinvent the wheel every time. Although you can.
It's easy to change display manager (except the case of keeping multiple of them to test out, if they are big and complex, like Gnome and KDE - there are conflicts). Some distros may have worse support for specific display managers, but I cannot say as my experience was relatively smooth for Debian, Manjaro, Arch, Endeavour and Artix. In Ubuntu I had some issues, but I could live with them for a time being because I couldn't change the workplace OS.
But for init system it's usually PITA. Many packages, including critical for system operation may have dependency on systemd, for example. In case of Artix Linux there are separate versions of packages for each init system that's supported, if package has dependency on the init system.
Not only package manager - init system, wiki, display manager, community support, package freshness vs stability also play their role. There are many other points that are important too.
Also can be last cash grab before leaving with a golden parachute, as industry doesn't feel healthy
I would recommend EndeavorOS too, easy to install, sane config, nearly pure Arch.
Testing out Artix right now - I wanted to try out lightweight init system.
Still requires 3rd party account and separate launcher, am I right?
