minus-squareBaggins [he/him]@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up21arrow-down1·7 个月前I mean I was asking about your complaint. Never heard of a Linux desktop that needs to be treated like a server before
minus-squareBezier@suppo.filinkfedilinkarrow-up10·7 个月前It can be your fault, but if the distro is supposed to be easy and you haven’t messed with its internals, it’s probably the distro’s fault. My #1 priority when choosing a distro was that it’s widely used and easy, because I don’t want to deal with that exact kind of shit.
minus-squarerickdg@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·7 个月前Ultimately it’s all open source, you can make your own distro. If something doesn’t work, fork it and fix it yourself. That’s the beauty of Linux, with all that’s good and bad about it.

minus-squarethemoonisacheese@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·7 个月前I mean, not necessarily your fault but at least you know someone could care to fix it, and you didn’t spend $100 for the privilege.
minus-squarerickdg@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·7 个月前I would love to be able to pay $100 for more great Linux distros.
minus-squareDiplomjodler@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·7 个月前You absolutely can. Most open source projects accept donations.
