| [05-23 18:27] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: once they forced snaps it kinda is blah |
| [05-23 18:27] | [Chat] | Ebbomega: Mint kinda took all the happy things about Ubuntu but without all their... odd forcing of UIs |
| [05-23 18:27] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: granted i use kubuntu but if i ever resintal lwill proabbly go fedora kde for a more middle ground up updates |
| [05-23 18:28] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: i have never been a fan of snaps they tend ot be slow and tend to make slow boots |
| [05-23 18:28] | [Chat] | Ebbomega: And Mint has a pretty good XFCE version as well. |
| [05-23 18:28] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: i tend ot like flatpak/appimages more |
| [05-23 18:28] | [Chat] | Ebbomega: Pretty sure that's largely what Mint is using. |
| [05-23 18:28] | [Chat] | Ebbomega: flatpak that is |
| [05-23 18:28] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: yeah flatpak is poualr with most distro |
| [05-23 18:28] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: snap is pretty much an *buntu thing |
| [05-23 18:29] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: they keep trying to force it and its kinda not good imo |
| [05-23 18:29] | [Chat] | Ebbomega: Yeah, I jumped ship before they were a thing. Sounds like I dodged a bullet. |
| [05-23 18:29] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: every snap installed adds like 10 to 20 ms to boot |
| [05-23 18:29] | [Chat] | Ebbomega: Booting is for kernel updates, lol |
| [05-23 18:29] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: as it has to mount each one at time in own virtual space |
| [05-23 18:29] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: reboots have becoming more often for many of the more user pointed ones |
| [05-23 18:30] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: fedora tends to do like windows and prompts ot reboot for updates |
| [05-23 18:30] | [Chat] | Ebbomega: I probably reboot every three weeks or so |
| [05-23 18:30] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: grantd there are options to do updates with out reboots if i remember |
| [05-23 18:30] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: i shut down main pcs every night to save power |
