True, it doesn’t. But the average rent in Germany is 780€/mo without heating, electricity or internet. So realistically people spend on average a 1000€/mo on living. Realistically this living on a train thing isn’t a sustainable l

I’ve been using Gnome almost exclusively for the past two years, although I also spent significant amounts of time in a tiling WM (Sway). I like the overall experience of gnome. The apps feel nice, the DE feels snappy etc. But the tiling fe

I think beginner-friendly is kind of relative. Considering the end goal, you're tying to achieve (hack the robot to run your custom software), requiring a user to solder a relatively simple board is a very accessible requirement.
