hey nerds, I’m getting myself a new personal laptop as a treat, but I very much do not want windows 11 shitting it up. Is there a linux distro with caveman-compatible instructions for installation and use? I want to think about my OS as little as possible while actually using it.
I’ve got one friend who uses mint, but I’ve also seen memes dunking on it so who knows. I actually really only know what I’ve seen from you all shitposting in other communities
Currently using Bazzite as my main OS on my laptop, and it works pretty good, the ostree setup has prevented me from manually installing several things though :/
That is the fun part about Linux is installing anything that’s not a Flatpak 😵💫
It’s not that bad once you learn how to layer, and use distrobox
I did try both, neither would work 🤷♂️
What’s this ostree setup thing please? Was thinking of trying Bazzite but am not yet a super experienced user so trying to understand any issues beforehand…

I was attempting to install zulujdk 17 and thinkorswim and can not get it functional, which I’ve done on zorin, Ubuntu, Linux mint, EndevourOS, etc… Just can’t get it functional on Bazzite due to the ostree setup for some reason.
