Maybe if the ”Linux-curious” would stop using distros like Omarchy and other riced up Arch derivatives and instead try something like vanilla Debian or Fedora, they could spend more time using Linux and less time whining about how unstable

It’s quite odd to choose the name ”Rocky” when that is already the name of one of the most popular Linux distributions.

most distros backport fixes which does not increment that version number. i.e. they patch it, they do not ship a completely new kernel release.

> "how do I just run my game server on dozens of boxes without dealing with linux stuff" A good first question to ask yourself is why you need to run it on dozens of boxes. You probably don't. The point of Docker is not &q

As someone who has moved the opposite way, heavily using Incus and now checking out Proxmox, what made you go for IncusOS? My gut feeling is that enterprise sentiment is leaning heavily towards Proxmox, fuelled by a VMware exodus that will

I switched to Debian a long time ago for both desktops and servers. For me personally I don’t see what value prop Ubuntu even has anymore, apart from maybe having ZFS in the kernel. Support maybe? I’ve never used it personally so I don’t kn

This is a nice idea, but how do you follow through in practice? Who decides what counts as an "upstream dependency", where do you draw the line? Is the Linux kernel included? Are desktop environments included? How do you decide ho

There are about 60k ports you can choose from for each IP, so I don’t understand why you can’t just give one user 1.2.3.4:1001 and the other 1.2.3.4:1002 and route that. Setting it up like this where you just assume: > The public key tel

”Fedora, RHEL, CentOS, Rocky, Alma” are all the same distro group: Enterprise Linux (EL). That it's ”available” on other distros is irrelevant, almost anything is ”available” as a non standard choice for any distro.

It's not only more complicated, it also does not sound to me like it would scale. What do you do when you have N servers? Do you buy N raspis, or do you keep using one bastion host? How do you automate it when you sooner or later must

Why would you solve an issue like this and then not supply a patch upstream, or at the very least contact someone that could? It seems to be like the FLOSS equivalent of posting about a problem on a forum and then replying "nvm, solved
