which $PROGRAM in a terminal tells you.

Cool, one of the few things I miss from Windows.

If they did good, because they didn’t work on any of the three or so versions I tried.

Jellyfins OTA and DVR are a dumpster fire. So if you want to watch and record OTA TV go with Plex.

I am allowed to use Ubuntu or Fedora (I would use the Fedora but they seemed to have fucked it up) at work. I use Arch for personal. This seams like a good way to learn Nix. I am probably never leaving Arch. It’s like a member of my family.

Oh, even better. I’m going to put it on the Ubuntu desktop my employer wants me to use.

use Arch to manage your system packages and use Nix to manage your user & GUI packages

Brilliant. Thanks.

I use Nix BTW…

I couldn’t make Windows Vista work on my laptop I spent almost a year saving for. I’ve been on Linux full time since. Thanks Ballmer!

1. They kinda suck. They take a long time to launch
2. They are in practice proprietary to Ubuntu so they are not really FOSS
3. The draw of Ubuntu it is was based on Debian Testing and therefor pretty stable.
4. It’s Yet Another Containerization stack. We already have flatpack, app image, chroot jails and more.

Why would a serious user want a psuedo proprietary Nth app containerization platform that sidesteps a serious incubation chain and has poor performance?
