Pi-hole on an ancient pi zero w.
I’ve got a little MSI box with 16GB of RAM, 500GB SSD, and a quad core i3 running Proxmox. Home Assistant is in its own VM, I have a VM for a bastion host/jump box of sorts for a client’s network (yes, I know VPNs exist), and then a VM running a few Docker containers: CheckMK, Dozzle, Uptime Kuma, and The TP-Link Omada Controller software. I intend to migrate those to Podman eventually.
On my desktop in Podman, I’m running Dashy, Redlib, and Dozzle regularly. Sometimes I run other services but those are pretty persistent. I use Podman on my local machine for my development work and it’s just handy to have Redlib and Dashy right here.
I tend to interact with things via SSH unless it’s a webshit.
Some of the questions about distros don’t take into account those of us who have been using Linux since the mid-90s. Your scope here seems to be directed at the last decade or so.
RedHat 5.3 with fvwm (or fvwm95) is very nostalgic for me because it was one of the few walnut creek CDs I managed to get working. Mandrake and early SuSe were cute as well.
I’d wager it uses systemd considering Lennart Poettering works for Microsoft.
I sure hope this meme was edited or the op is satire. The dead internet has messed so many people up.
I absolutely love it. Easy to find newer versions of things than what’s in my distro’s repos, easy to update. The only snags I’ve encountered is sometimes (very rarely) a program won’t have access to part of my storage or my system’s dark theme isn’t applied. The former is super rare and the latter is usually 5min of searching the web to remember how to change the theme for a flatpak.
EDIT: after reading some of the other comments, I should mention that I only use it for GUI applications. I’ve not yet tried any TUI/CLI applications as flatpaks.
can confirm. am crazy and dangerous. 🤣
“Don’t cry, you can run bash on Windows 10 now.” I’m dead… hahaha
There’s a really fine line between needing a spreadsheet and needing a database and I’ve not yet found it. It’s probably more fuzzy than I realized but I have participated on so many programming projects that amounted to a spreadsheet that lived too long.
I used a pro 7+ for a while with Fedora on it and it ran just fine. The stylus worked generally well, too. Eventually I put Win 11 back on it to be able to use the camera (it was not yet supported by the linux-surface project and still may not be?) and it worked well enough with WSL that I kept it that way. I generally spent my time in firefox and windows terminal with little to no trouble at all (after de-clawing windows the best I could).
Note that the keyboard is about what you’d expect for such a flat thing. I’m pretty sure it’s rubber dome and not butterfly switches. It’s not a great experience but it’s no worse than your average laptop.
MX Linux
Option for no systemd, great community, good overall appearance, great set of custom tools.
Mint
Generally works in cases where Ubuntu would and you don’t have to deal with Canonical’s choices.

That’s kind of a confusing way to explain binary
“secure” boot, the industry standard for ensuring that devices don’t run software other than Windows during the bootup process
