@kerosene @Tony @lonestarr @ForbiddenDreamer @MisterLister been using chinux since like 2019 and oddly enough this has never happened to me other than when there's a major kernel or some other component regression like what happened with arch a few times. Debian stable has never just broken on me before like that. Skill ishoo?

@MisterLister @ForbiddenDreamer @Tony @nyanide @lonestarr I have used Linux for many years now and I'll be honest with you: it works flawlessly until it doesn't. I've had many machines automagically break after a while due to some retarded update or something, no matter de distro, boot system, desktop environment or version of the kernel. Also everything will work at about 95% of what Windows can do and that missing five percent will be extremely annoying.
Even then it could be worth switching or having a double booted system just in case Wangblows truly stops working.

@ForbiddenDreamer @Tony @nyanide @lonestarr I probably was tbh but all this talk from linux fags being like "errr its this simple" and then it's actually not really scorned me of ever using it again

@kerosene @Tony @lonestarr @ForbiddenDreamer @MisterLister I dunno dude, I've just never experienced an issue like that before aside from when major regressions happen and that's widely reported on nowadays. WONTFIX
I feel like this is something that would've been true 20 years ago though.

@nyanide @ForbiddenDreamer @MisterLister @Tony @lonestarr It's not skill issue when it literally just breaks on its own. I did not count the multiple times I actually borked the system because I was poking it just to see what happened, and that was indeed my fault.

@nyanide @ForbiddenDreamer @MisterLister @Tony @lonestarr It does happen, specially recently with all of the new changes to the software that comes with the system (x11 -> Wayland, to name an example).
Funnily enough, now that I remember, possibly the most stable distro I ever had was a Gentoo-based one that kept running without issues for almost two years on multiple PCs. I think I never got something very particular working on it, but the darn thing never broke on its own. Based distro.

@kerosene @Tony @lonestarr @ForbiddenDreamer @MisterLister x11 -> Wayland isn't even on the scene for every distro yet, are you running fedora on your systems and expecting smooth sailing???

@nyanide @ForbiddenDreamer @MisterLister @Tony @lonestarr It's just another example of things people keep saying "it just works" when it doesn't, and I've had issues with it on different distros.

@kerosene @Tony @lonestarr @ForbiddenDreamer @MisterLister sure but you're naming awfully modern still in active development that's being shipped on some more rolling release/"fully modern" distros, actually it's definitely a bad thing that shit like fedora is being pushed to the masses as someone that just works. Though if you know what you're doing and want your computer to work flawlessly 99.9% of the time you would avoid fedora and friends like the plague. Even with arch and gentoo you have the option of using "stable" options. Actually Gentoo still aims to have a fully stable system they don't push major regressions out unlike the arch team.

I totally agree btw, Gentoo neat, compiling everything not so neat.
