When you’re moving to Linux, your first experience matters a lot. If you feel limited, if you don’t understand what you’re doing, or if you have to spend hours researching what to do to make stuff work, you’re going to have a bad experience, and that’s why choosing your distro is a every important step.
Your use case will define what you need to install. What you need to remember is:
All distros can virtually run the exact same software nowadays, so choosing one doesn’t close any doors
All desktop user focused distros can play games.
With that out of the way, we can boil down your choice to 2 factors:
What desktop environment do you want to use
Do you prefer to use something stable, or do you want the latest software available
Desktop environments: GNOME is the one that ships by default on most distributions, including the biggest one, Ubuntu. GNOME is very simple, sleek and minimalistic. It’s really easy to handle once you’ve spent 5 minutes with it. It can be customized using extensions, but these aren’t always super stable. GNOME is the default for Ubuntu, Fedora, and a GNOME variant is also shipped by almost all distributions.
KDE or Plasma is the second big one. it offers customization options for almost everything. From the position of the panel, the widgets you want to add to it, the whole layout of the desktop, the behaviour of the windows, the position of the window controls, everything can be adjusted to your liking. KDE is the default on KDE Neon, its flagship distribution, and KDE variants are available for most major distros.
Now you get many smaller desktop environments. Cinnamon is the pendant of KDE, but using GNOME-like technologies and applications. Its default layout is also very close to wht you’d get on Windows, but it can be changed to your liking easily.
XFCE is a lightweight desktop environment, which might not look as good by default as the big ones, but is still very easy to customize, and runs on lower end machines without a hitch.
Mac users might prefer Pantheon, which ships on elementary OS, and uses a layout reminiscent of OSX, with a similar dock and top bar, minus the global menu.
You can also use MATE, which is using the same technologies as GNOME, but with a more traditional desktop behavior, or Budgie, which is a derivative of GNOME as well, with its own notification center and more customization options.
If your PC is not that fast, I’d recommend XFCE, although KDE can run pretty well with little system resources as well.
The distribution Ok, so now you’ve chosen the desktop environment you want to go with. Now you need to decide which distribution you’re going to get.
GNOME: If you’ve chosen GNOME, and you want stability, your options are either Ubuntu LTS, which has a very stable base, but older software, or Fedora, if you’d rather avoid proprietary software. If you’re allergic to the Ubuntu Orange, Zorin OS is also a very good choice, it uses the same base as Ubuntu LTS, but has tweaks that make it look a lot more modern, in my opinion.
If you’ve chosen GNOME and want the latest software versions and updates, you can go with Manjaro GNOME edition. It’s what we call a rolling release: this means it doesn’t have “versions”, it’s just continually updated with the latest software as they come out.If you want a healthy middle ground between stability, and up to date programs, go for the latest Ubuntu release. ubuntu has long term support releases, OR LTS, but it also has a new version every 6 months.
Pop!OS would also be a nice contender
KDE If you’ve chosen KDE, the stable choice is KDE Neon. It’s a distribution based on Ubuntu LTS, so it’s rock solid, and has the latest KDE Plasma updates as a rolling release.If you’d prefer a more bleeding edge system all around, go for Manjaro KDE, or the latest Kubuntu release
Cinnamon If you’ve elected to use Cinnamon, your stable option is Linux Mint. It’s also based on Ubuntu LTS, and has the latest Cinnamon updates. It’s customizable, simple to use, and won’t die or crash on you.Once again, the less stable route will be Manjaro Cinnamon
XFCE XFCE has less choices, but you can get a very stable one in the form of Xubuntu, the XFCE based Ubuntu variant. Zorin OS Lite also offers a very good looking XFCE.Manjaro XFCE will give you a great, bleeding edge experience.
Pantheon Your only real choice for Pantheon is elementary OS. elementary OS developers actually develop Pantheon as well, and they ship it in a beautiful package.

it is very interesting how the coverage of pixels (the phones) seems to end on “well, it’s the software that has new stuff!” then at the end they add “oh yeah actually this is not a pixel feature, any android with google stuff can do it”
I think it's important to understand that people who identify as conservatives have not, as a group, turned away as their party has gone to full mask-off fascism whatsoever, so we can see their true ideology and we can stop pretending to believe in the fake ideology they propounded to disguise it. RE: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:jtb35…
Conservatism isn't an ideology in my opinion, it's an alignment to preserve and protect a status quo. The status quo that those who are "conservative" in this country wish to protect is the one they've been saying all along: that of the founding, with chattel slavery and women subjugated etc etc.
If conservatives were really what some think of as "true conservatism," if there were an important distinction to be made, then Trump and MAGA would not have been able to rise. The "true conservatives" would have turned away. They did not. There's nowhere to hide now, we ought not provide cover.
I think the word "conservative" should become socially and politically radioactive. It ought to be shameful to be one. It ought to be shameful to have had a family member who was one. They are what they are, they're doing what they're doing, the stuff they said opposite that was a lie.
I knew people who were what is meant when somebody talks about "true conservatives," who actually believed the small-government and personal freedom stuff. I know that's what they were because they aren't conservative anymore in any way that is recognizable as American conservatism.
J'en avais marre d'avoir vos réponses de recherche Google polluée par les sites générés par IA, Quora, Pinterest. Et je trouvais pas comment défavoriser ces sites ou les bloquer carrément. Je viens de comprendre : c'est fait exprès. Quand on peut donner nos préférences, comme sur @kagihq , c'est très visible. Encore une merdification liée au monopole de Google.

The system works! My hot take is that the script is the weak part here, or if not "weak" at least melodramatic in ways that rely on fridge logic, but the characterizations, performances, and direction are all elite and the rewatchability is endless.

As a bonus, the movie has one of the most effective dramatization of the importance of shunning bigots. This is the sort of thing that nowadays gets scolded by the New York Times opinion section for being chilling to free speech.

The question has been "how can we tell these masked government thugs from people pretending to be masked government thugs?" and the answer isn't just "we can't" but that not being able to tell is the point. Republicans want to encourage & activate independent vigilante kidnapping & brutality squads. RE: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:f7utv…
Very important to understand that reports of people pretending to be ICE agents in order to terrorize communities is very much the point and the strategy in the first place. The bedrock white conservative ideal is that white people can do whatever they want to whoever they want for any reason.
Conservative ideology boils down the exclusive franchise to murder others, and if you think that's overstating it, I would invite you to observe that hundreds or thousands of unofficial lawless kidnappers cosplaying as official lawless kidnappers is no threat whatsoever to the conservative mind.
I’ve been beaten to the Portal joke, so I’ll just say the idea of making it easier to spank someone, or do anything with their bottom half, while they give head has many wonderful possibilities.

Ce thread explique que laisser pousser la végétation en ville, comme dans la vidéo, n'est pas juste une erreur ou un abandon, mais une pratique réfléchie pour favoriser la biodiversité, réduire les coûts et mieux gérer l'entretien. Les perceptions varient entre beauté et abandon, mais il faut aussi comprendre que la nature sauvage en ville peut être bénéfique pour l'environnement et la santé.

J'ai bien connu ça, un voisin avait reçu un financement communal pour faire pousser des vivaces le long d'un mur, sans entretenir, mais plein de monde est venu y jeter des encombrants, même de l'huile de vidange, des garagistes venaient y stocker des épaves, parmi les véhicules volés, etc. Alors, j'ai commencé à nettoyer, à faire des tas sur les places de parking. Et des voisins m'ont accompagnés à nettoyer. Finalement, on a bourré les épaves de toutes les crasses. Jusqu'à ce que quelqu'un appelle les flics. Ils sont venus nous demander ce qu'on faisait, ils l'ont vu et ils sont repartis sans prendre la moindre identité. Une semaine après, les épaves avaient disparu. Mais ça a recommencé, car si l'un ou l'autre avait aidé un après-midi, les autres ramenaient leurs merdes. Parallèlement, l'UE subsidie pour ramener des couloirs de biodiversité en ville.

"Beauty magazines have been lying to readers for decades—but at least they used to start with actual humans. NewBeauty magazine’s Summer/Fall 2025 issue quietly crossed that line, publishing a multipage article dedicated to the beautification of female skin that featured perfect female models who weren’t real. Spotted by professional photographer Cassandra Klepac, she pointed out that each photo was labeled as AI and included the prompt used to generate them." fastcompany.com/91388443/beaut…

AI’s latest feat: Depleting drinking water sources around Illinois, Midwest
Amount of water that’s being withdrawn for a single data center development is unknown because secrecy agreements between government bodies and companies keep this information from being publicly disclosed.
“Most of the focus around data centers has been on the energy side,” Volzer said. “What we don’t know about water questions is more than what we do know.”
Large data centers working on artificial intelligence and other applications across the Midwest threaten to drain water supplies, a Great Lakes advocacy group warns.
Question: Do people rename their photo taken from their camera/phones from IMG20250717101350.jpeg to something else? And would they find it useful to display it on the main photo grid view of a Photos app?
As far as I know, neither the macOS, iOS, Android nor Windows photos app display this information on their grid view.
I personally find the automatic sorting by location, time or faces much more useful to navigate a photo album.
Got a photo album with thousands scanned material from 1900 to now, I rename all to YYYYMMDD_hhmmssmillisec
I simply hate when phone use prefix IMG_ or VID_; mimetype is a thing, no need to annunce the data type in the filename...
I also hate how Signal/WhatsApp/Messenger and all this apps are renaming photos, destroy original filenames and flush the Exif of the photos. Really inferior way to share photos but so common...
I made bash script here to reconstruct Exif and rename photos.
Around line 175 there is a long list of common gibberish that digital camera and apps input in filenames collected over 20 years (like DSC_***, ***_BURST, ***_HDR, IMG_***, etc... ).
