My first instinct was to reply "nah," because of how unfriendly to geeks they are compared to Linux -- but on the other hand, I must admit they are much better than Windows and much cheaper than Macs, so I suppose this is fair.
- _ea1k 3y agoHonestly, I've played with one quite a bit, and I wouldn't even say that are _that_ unfriendly to geeks. Root, vs code, npm, etc all run perfectly out of the box. It is more limiting if you want virtualization or even just containers, but that isn't always a requirement.
