Old kernel = old drivers. Its that simple… Things might work on a basic level sure. Drivers baked in to the kernel and when you use a damn old version of it you get old drivers and old hardware support.

Also a load of closed source stuff is on github.
Github or the variations like it just make it easy to look at code when publicly available.
Debian is so old it doesn’t work on very modern hardware… So what your talking about?
Also Ubuntu is not a “server” option. They do have a server option yes. It is the most used desktop or at least was.
Also I used arch for ca 2 years not once needed to use a backup. Even though I abused the hell out of it.
Most major distros are fairly secure by default without things breaking (arch is a exception there, As you got to set that up your self).
If you want to go extreme their is Qubes OS. But you can not swap that across systems like you might want do.

kylian0087@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Linux@lemmy.ml•Is it possible to live boot Linux mint with persistence on a usb drive similar to Tails OS?7·24 days agoActually fairly simple to do. Get a large USB then use that as the target for the install you boot from a second USB. Now you got a full Linux install on a USB

Honestly Fedora is not all nice and sunshine… I would suggest Opensuse Tumbleweed over Fedora anytime nowadays.
What did you end up with then? Just curious. Every Linux distros or even any system at this point suffers that problem.
Why is tumbleweed to much of a Hassel to keep updated? You can update it once a decade and still be up and running.
I love my Tumbleweed install. It is rolling and new while also being rock solid. But I do have the itch to try new stuff which j do sometimes
Suggesting NixOS to a completely new user is stupid. NixOS is cool but very different from almost all Linux distros. Comes with its own language you have to learn as well.
Thing is. Mint is for the most part a just works distro. Based on Ubuntu it is very easy to find help for it. Combine that with a load of sane defaults like disabling snaps. The default UI and theme could defiantly use a facelift
While coming up with such flawed laws as well. I doubt they even look at the feedback

For music. I use navidrome. It works a load better then jellyfin for this IMO. You can use the same file location for both jellyfin and navidrome if needed.

Be mindful to not set the H200 to passtrough mode. You need to flash the IT firmware to it for it to work properly.
