Bazzite (fedora based) is actually more like steamOS than Arch is like steamOS, as both Bazzite and steamOS are immutable. I love Bazzite/Aurora/Bluefin because they have the option to include Nvidia drivers preconfigured out of the box. There have been some improvements in KDE for NVIDIA recently, so maybe check it out. One quick question, why is dealing with packages a pro point for Ubuntu?
Mastodon (theoretically) does it like this. They can no longer see your posts.
Discord would be the obvious answer, but I understand why you might want to use it, my recommendation is using a client that disables some of the tracking like Vesktop. Spotify is also a major privacy concern, it can be replaced by Spotube (and to a lesser degree by Audiotube) which removes most tracking and is three and convenient. Also I’m not sure if I would keep using chromium, especially with manifest V3
I think the main reason is that most people who use Linux installed it on their own and at that point no parental control is stopping you.
What about Epiphany/Falcon? They are AFAIK built from scratch, apart from the engine. Would you still consider them clones?
Parental controls are one of the under developed parts of Linux, the only major one I know of is timekpr
My recommendation would be setting up Nobara with a separate home partition so you can easily switch if it stops being supported, although there are no sign of this yet. My second recommendation would be Opensuse Leap, it is more stable and well established but less optimized for gaming. Maybe take another look at Pop OS! when they release their independent new desktop. If you go with base Fedora be aware setting up codecs can be annoying. Avoid Manjaro, the distro breaks a lot due to dependency conflicts. Also I think you mean GNOME 40, GNOME 3 is the old design.
For Wine: Microsoft 365 and anything Adobe notoriously doesn’t work with wine, any solution will most likely not be permanent.
For Premiere: Kdenlive is the best open source alternative IMO and there also DaVinci Resolve which has a free and a pro version. It is also more professional. Be aware DaVinci has problems with GNOME, which is the default environment of Ubuntu.
For distro: Nowadays Linux Mint is the best for user friendliness. If you will be going for a tilling window manager, the typical easy distros won’t make that much of a difference as you will be replacing a large part of it. You could probably do everything with KDE though with window rules and this, if you are going to use KDE then maybe use Kubuntu, it is a official version of Ubuntu with KDE. Ubuntu flavors
LMDE uses Debian repos which are very well tested, meaning stuff like the XZ back door will most likely not affect you because it is found before you get the update. ClamAV is not designed to recognize malware for Linux only on Linux, so not what you want in your case. My recommendation is to stick to distro packages (well tested) or flathub (sandboxed), which are available in mints app manager. If that isn’t an option try getting the software as an appimage, it isn’t sandboxed but also doesn’t have root access. Otherwise general rules apply: be wary of sketchy websites, use ublock with the malware filter list etc.
You could potentially use distrobox to install a .deb sandboxed, but as it isn’t in the Debian repository or available as a .deb it isn’t something I would do as a beginner, even if there is no substantial difficulty in installing
SteamOS at the end of the day just is an immutable distro with game mode for the steam deck. Bazzite does the same for PCs. I get that there is some level of brand recognition with Steam, but I think most people (including me) would take a while to notice there is something of when they are handed a steam deck with bazzite
How so?
Not sure, but maybe this is a pipewire vs pulseaudio thing. Enable pipewire on Debian
What would an official steamOS desktop do that bazzite can’t? Unless you need commercial support because you are selling steam machines I don’t see how a official release would be of advantage.
That remove all instances feature could save me a lot of trouble
The video is also on Odysee, but for me there is no marking.
Endeavour OS is exactly es stable as arch, and Manjaro tends to break more often than arch due to dependency issues. Debian and Arch are questionable for beginners, I would always recommend Mint as the first option for beginners. Also Mint has an easy NVIDIA setup, so I don’t think that is an advantage of pop OS compared to it. Nowadays NVIDIA is fine on Linux, especially on distros like pop OS, Mint or Aurora that makes the setup easy.
I believe you can just do
youruser:
and chmod automatically uses the correct group. The other user is also technically correct as the usergroup is called the same as the user so both commands are the same.
