  • You said arch is not for beginners, OP is asking for a distro to learn. I asked why atomic is not for beginners, not for someone to learn. Op also didn’t say what she wants to learn about linux. Maybe she is no software dev and doesn’t want to learn how to package software. But even then, distrobox is only a few clicks away. Learning how to tweak the system before learning about firewall and other stuff is beyond beginner level in my opinion.

    Why wouldn’t an atomic distro not be for beginners?

    There’s no reason why a beginner wouldn’t be able to use one. Maybe i’s overwhelming for a power user that doesn’t know linux well but for a beginner who doesn’t use too much functionality it’s perfect. You just use flatpak which you should also do on non atomic distros.

    WebOS is linux and uses a webview of jellyfin iirc. I use a fire tv stick because it can play everything, including 10bit HDR DV. The ads are annoying but it could be worse. I only use it to start jellyfin and two other apps. I hate needing an amazon account. If you find another android tv stick that works equally well, use that one.









  • Come on, you’ve got a password manager that saves passwords and usernames. It couldn’t be more convenient to login.

    Why would you give the responsibility to google for your logins?

    Why would you lock yourself into the vendor google by using their login system for every other service? You can’t migrate anywhere easily.

    I’m just not enabling such a method. It’s not implemented. People who don’t think about it and hence don’t care usually still use the service eveb if they cannot use “login with google”
