Full “It’s my first day on linux” step-by-step guide. Everything from updating, setting themes, backups, installing nvidia drivers is in there. All relevant choices are meticulously explained.
Ok… that’s not what you said though? That’s a usage guide, not a set up wizard. Sorry for being pedantic, but words mean things, and sometimes if you use the wrong words for things people can get confused by what you’re trying to say.
It’s the only distro I know with a fully featured setup wizard that holds your hand through the entire process.
Ubuntu, Fedora, Nobara(Fedora fork by GloriousEggroll of proton-ge), Garuda Arch, Pop!OS. Those are just the few I’ve personally fiddled with.
Highly recommend Garuda, Nobara and Pop!, in that order, for gaming.
Ah, gotcha, makes sense.
Not trying to be a dick, but how is it different? From your description of what you were missing it sounds like exactly the same thing.
Currently I still find it too much of a hastle to correctly run Winblows applications, almost always relying on Lutris, Steams proton or Bottles to do the work for me.
That’s…uhhh… that’s why they were made? So that your average Joe Schmoe, like myself and you, doesn’t have to muddle through trying to get wine set exactly right so that the windows program functions. It sounds like you’re complaining about the solution to the problem.
I guess there could be work done to just make it so if you double click on a .exe install file in just boots whatever has the best install preset, or give you a pop up with options for lutris/proton/bottles.
It’s really unfair. The older we get, the faster time seems to pass, and the less we have to spare. If we’re lucky, maybe we can get 15 or 20 years at the end to enjoy our labour…most of us will be too banged up from the grind to enjoy it.
✊🤜🤛 the struggle is real fam
I also love to fiddle, but the ADHD steers the ship a lot, and so I sometimes end up bricking my install… I’d say it’s a thing I’m working on, but you seem nice…and I’d hate to lie to you.
Or had a lot of time, and have streamlined their setup to the point that they don’t spend nearly any time on the fiddly bits, because they now have next to no time.
Yeah, I’m having a lot of trouble with my Nvidia card right now in Garuda Arch. It’s a 1060, so about time to update anyway.
Prior to this news…how has it been?
Thanks so much for taking the time to give me this info.
Ah, yeah, sorry. Currently I’m using WireGuard, but I’m open to using something else.
I’ll have a look at Tail/Headscale, this was very informative, thank you very much.
Some users just need to be able to exit my home network.
I would like to, maybe, in the future have a file server/jellyfin, have access to other devices on my network and if I’m somewhere with low enough latency stream games off steam.
Just wanted to say, thanks for asking me for further details. You could have been a dick about my unclear initial post, and I appreciate your just picking away at it until I was a bit more specific about what I was actually asking for.
If this was reddit the whole thing would’ve been a fair bit more hostile.
VPN needs to come in from my domain IP, but exit from my network. What network security best practices should I be implementing?
Yeah, bar progress is sus
