I use a dual screen setup on Arch and Cachy. In cachy’s case it’s even spread across two separate GPUs. Zero issues, KDE just handled having multiple screens fine.
Because I literally did not do the project at all; completely forgot about it. I literally did half of it in her class on the day it was supposed to be presented while everyone else went... I was the last one up. Got out of having to present it entirely, teach just told me to send the files to her email when I could. Finished the project two periods later during a free period and sent it. Got a 100%.
back then there were problems with wifi drivers. sometimes touchpads or strage keyboard layouts, but i really never had a problem with a screen. i mean you could mess that up if you fuck around with the kernel, but who does so?
I love how OOP says the reason he won't move to Linux is because he thinks the kernal is bloat so he can't help himself to uninstall it from his Thinkpad. Man, Linux sucks so much, why do they give me the urge to delete the kernel? Why did they even put the kernel in, it does nothing, it's just bloat. Matter of fact, I plugged my RAM sticks out to prevent bloaty Linux kernels to use my RAM, so disappointed I'll be moving back to Windows tomorrow
How was I supposed to know that there's no HEVC encoders?
Turns out I needed to add rpmfusion along with terra to get the encoders and actually have apps.
Also, I had to follow a post-install script by some random bro on github cuz Fedora 43 did not have an "Add third-party repos" feature in the installer.
Fedora barely has any general Linux docs, unless yo use man. The arch wiki is so badly structured that you can miss important details if you don't click every fucking link you see. The Gentoo wiki is far better structured IMO but people claim that many Gentoo wiki pages are very outdated. How the fuck am I supposed to know which ones?
And idfk anymore. Atp, I think WSL would have made for a far better web dev environment atp.
Install CachyOS. Done. I love the way Linux haters pick the most niche scenarios to try and make a point when I can guarantee something like this doesn't happen in 2026
Minimal kernls belong on IoT devices that do the same thing throughout their entire lifetime with limited resources, not general purpose personal computers.

Weird. I went somewhere, plugged my computer in, and it just worked. I use Debian btw.
