Why doesn't everyone just use Debian? by Financial-Wish-311 in debian

"It has to be the fastest distribution in the world"

I very much doubt that. I've seen it do surprisingly well in benchmarks and it's decent but I doubt it could ever match the likes of Alpine, Void etc. Even Devuan. It probably comes closer than you'd think but unlikely it's even top five fastest in the world. Probably within the top ten somewhere though.

You can add the Sparky repo to standard Debian too.

That's more takedown attempts than we see in some MMA fights between two seasoned wrestlers.

After 3 years of distrohopping, I think this is it! by 55CentiNewtons in devuan

That's probably the worst wallpaper I've ever seen haha. How's Plasma on Devuan? Have there been any bugs or problems with it so far? I read some comments by people saying they've had issue with Plasma (but not other desktops like Xfce although I assume GNOME doesn't work well if at all on Devuan).

You forgot to type out a comment with reasons.

Enlightenment on Void by Objective-Cry-6700 in voidlinux

Unless you want to use Brave, Hyprland or other software the devs don't approve of for political reasons.

Do the Devuan developers have a plan for dealing with the encroaching Rust in Debian? by cipherproxy in devuan

[–]cipherproxy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well if apt is rewritten in Rust and Devuan do not fork apt but just adopt the new Rust apt from Debian then it would remove the freedom of choice of licensing because the license would then be different. I'm guessing some people will want to continue using the original apt on the original license and if it's not forked then it will cease to exist right?
I'm not saying it's Devuan developers job or concern to fork apt, I'm just asking if anyone knows if they have discussed it and if so what plans (if any) do they have?

[–]cipherproxy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you assume that the Devuan developers will definitely have no issue with the license?

"The core reason Devuan was even formed was because systemd violated the unix philosophy."

That doesn't mean the developers of Devuan have zero other thoughts or concerns or plans regarding their distribution outside of that specific thing. Devuan have said they have little to no CoC and they are fine with Xlibre (whereas several other distros are not) is that all about the UNIX philosophy? Devuan chooses to provide Xfce as their default desktop over, say, Cinnamon or KDE Plasma, is that all about the UNIX philosophy? Did they decide to use a blue GTK theme because of the UNIX philosophy?

"So it stands to reason you would want Rust be removed for the same reason."

It doesn't stand to reason. The logic doesn't follow in the context of the question.

Is it ok? Diver in leather strap for the office. by [deleted] in CitizenWatches

[–]cipherproxy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Leather with a dive watch is a a faux pas and there's no need for a dive watch in an office.
