    Re: Rolling Release vs. Fixed Release

    Snowflakes use Arch?


    It's from all the snowflakes... J/K

    It's more likely from the fact that Arch has to be "built" during installation, and it's not as simple as a walkthrough GUI. Could...

    No, they don't. The only "following" that Manjaro does, is access the AUR.

    Re: Rolling Release vs. Fixed Release

    I didn't know Arch's repos were "higher tested" than other releases. This makes it understandable as to why it's so stable.

    So, it's fair to say you prefer a rolling release?

    You know the funny part about "compatibility?"

    It's not the file format. It's the fonts.

    Rolling Release vs. Fixed Release

    Ubuntu is classified as a "Fixed" release Distro... but is it really?

    Secure Boot has always been a thorn in Linux' paw.

    Well, that's a relief! Seems like the first time ever.


    The loading part is similar. Steam will load for me, but it hangs for a bit before it does. Also, there is nothing about the Steam...

    Perhaps I should restate my problem:

    In Kubuntu 23.04, I download around 18Mbps.
    In Windows, the download speed is around 125Mbps, and I've seen it jump up to 250Mbps before.

    Why is it so much...
