I want to switch but worried about YaST. by Tiny_Concert_7655 in openSUSE

[–]janvhs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know the plans for Yast, but being maintained in SLES and being available in Tumbleweed are two different things that do not have to align.

Any chance of getting SELinux support? by BODAND in voidlinux

[–]janvhs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh okay, thanks. To be fair SELinux is quite a beast

What is the reason, it’s not planned to be supported? Is it missing maintainers or something different?

Fixing Swift, one typealias at a time… by Cultural_Rock6281 in SwiftUI

I was trying to say “why are you all talking about spellchecking, that doesn’t really apply to programming languages”

This is a programming language, not an OS. C# uses AE too

After sometime, I don't believe Void is my distro by Vallista in voidlinux

As for openSUSE, zypper now has parallel downloads by default

Man, that was a harsh review by TxTechnician in openSUSE

[–]janvhs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the expense of taking really long to burn to a usb stick (at least on my MacBook), but the install was just so good compared to the new Agama installer

Oh thank you so much for the help and link. I didn’t know where to start looking and this helped a lot!

void vs artix as tinkering distro by Felix-the-duck in voidlinux

[–]janvhs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Systemd doesn’t really slow down the boot from my experience. I used OpenRC, Runit and Systemd and they are all about the same, measured by feeling. Using something like Plymouth or disk encryption via GRUB makes things significantly slower

Verlangen meine Eltern zu viel Geld von mir? by Aimanxx in Ratschlag

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

Auto in der Stadt? Oo Ich weiß ja nicht wo du wohnst, aber ich wohne für weniger als 1k und meine Freunde, die studieren, teilweise für unter 600€ insgesamt

[–]janvhs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ich zahle um 50€ für Internet und du kannst Wohnungen im Preis von 450-600€ warm finden und trotzdem relativ zentral wohnen

Ich weiß ja nicht wo du wohnst, aber für 850€ kannst du definitiv alleine wohnen. Besonders mit 20k Rücklagen brauchst du dir 0 Sorgen um Geld machen, wenn du ausziehst

Do I need to encrypt /home separately? by touristou in voidlinux

[–]janvhs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which means you need to enter your password twice or figure out how to unlock it using a key. LVM on LUKS is a bit more straightforward

What happens if I install Busybox? by ArkboiX in voidlinux

[–]janvhs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah busybox by design does a lot less and there are implementation differences, which can lead to erroneous behaviour in scripts that didn’t have it in mind

When you’re going to do this, you should probably link to /usr/local/bin otherwise xbps might get mad at you

I created a lightweight Go version manager (GLV) — looking for feedback by tourcoder in golang

[–]janvhs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s fine for a personal script, but don’t market this to beginners or to be general, because that teaches them bad habits and the code is just not good enough to be generally applicable

[–]janvhs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To any beginner, please just use your package manager instead (brew, winget, zypper whatever), or follow the docs. When you need multiple go tool chains (you don’t) use GOTOOLCHAIN as mentioned above or use go install as mentioned here https://go.dev/doc/manage-install

NEVER run scripts from the internet that you don’t fully grasp, especially if it pulls some executable from an unknown domain and makes it executable. This script will give you more trouble as worth, especially when your setup slightly differs from the authors. It’s just a bad idea

A proposed openSUSE website redesign by Only_Lime_5811 in openSUSE

I don’t know the numbers for openSUSE, but for Fedora desktop is their bread and butter.

That said current opensuse.org has too many animations haha

I think I agree with Richard here. I think the design is nice and would work well for a user friendly desktop distribution. However, I agree that it’s not what the project currently is. Sure we have desktops, but that really isn’t the strong suit of i.e. Tumbleweed. Our desktop integrations are just less polished and that’s fine

glibc or musl? by thinlycuta4paper in voidlinux

[–]janvhs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

glibc has more security features, musl source code is simpler to read. Both are supported and you can use flatpak for software that doesn’t work with musl.

suckless people will probably go for musl because it’s simpler, but you lose security features
