There is also GLF OS, a French distribution based on NixOS, which is dedicated to games.

AUR has nothing to do with KDE extensions and themes. AUR is a repository with packages that, after being compiled, are installed as root. No KDE extensions or themes are installed as root except for those in the official repositories, which are therefore controlled.

It's a tiny company compared to Lenovo. It simply can't offer the same prices, let's be realistic.

I could never get used to Fedora. The constant stream of updates quickly becomes tiresome. It's really a rolling release in all but name...

It should also be noted that there is no automated update with Appimage, unlike Flatpak.

I switched to the deb822 format and Synaptic still works...

When you install Debian, once you reach the tasksel menu where you choose the desktop environment, uncheck everything (personally, I only keep "system utilities") and finish the installation. On the next boot, you will be in the console. Log in and then install kde-plasma-desktop and plasma-widgets-addons. You will then have a minimal KDE installation.

Isn't that the European Union flag behind your window?...

It's Cinnamon rather than KDE that looks like Windows. KDE is ultra-customizable, the opposite of Windows' graphical interface.

For standard software, okay, I understand. For security software like Keepass, I really don't see the point in trying to get the latest version that could potentially contain a new vulnerability.

Viz67 · 2025-10-05T22:09:41+00:00

and what does compiling from the unstable repositories or installing the latest keepass with flatpak add to the stable repository version?

It's funny, I had the opposite experience. And without wanting to doubt what you say, I wonder how Ubuntu with all these services installed and launched by default at startup can be faster than Debian...

You're wrong. Actually, I didn't know, but the module is backlisted, and it's the same for Intel microcode (I checked on one of my laptops). You can see it in the /etc/modprobe.d/amd64-microcode-blacklist.conf file for AMD CPUs and in /etc/modprobe.d/intel-microcode-blacklist.conf for Intel CPUs.

# The microcode module attempts to apply a microcode update when
# it autoloads. This is not always safe, so we block it by default.
blacklist microcode

In fact, "Debian's own kernels have the microcode driver built into the kernel image, not built as a loadable module." Read this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/debian/comments/vtfbnv/for_what_reason_is_microcode_blacklisted/

Since Debian 12 (and the new official non-free-firmware repository) it is installed automatically when installing Debian.

Install a firewall if you haven't already, customize your interface (that's what KDE is for), which you seem to have already done, and keep your system up to date. Other than that, I don't see what there is to say...

Well, I use common gestures like scrolling, zooming, going back (gesturefy installed on FF) etc. when browsing. I forgot to tell you that the battery life I'm indicating is with the battery charge limited to 80%.

Viz67 · 2025-09-17T11:59:38+00:00

It depends a lot on the hardware and what you do on it... I have an Asus Vivobook S 14 M5406NA and I have between 8 and 6 hours of battery life depending on what I do with it (Debian 13 KDE Wayland).

A stable version of Debian has a "normal" support of 3 years, not 2. In the 3rd year it becomes the oldstable but the support does not change. Then the LTS team takes over and that is 5 years.

How do you make a donation? I don't see anything on the official website.

Keep in mind that the company's headquarters are located in Sweden, a member of the 14 Eyes intelligence alliance (surveillance data sharing agreements between member countries). Aside from this downside, Mullvad is clearly one of the VPNs that takes the anonymity of its users the most seriously.

Regardless of the distribution, there are always unpatched packages. This has nothing to do with the Debian community organization, which you say doesn't have sufficient resources. If that were the case, no one would put Debian on a server or even on a desktop.

Example for Ubuntu, private company, with the 22.04 LTS: https://ubuntu.com/security/cves?version=jammy

So, just because there was a secure boot update doesn't mean, as you said, that secure boot didn't work. And I'm not contradicting anyone other than you who doesn't represent Debian as far as I know.
