  • Thanks for the explanation!

    I didn’t like Runit

    Unfortunate, but not very surprising 😭. I hope it (or another init) will one day be more than a viable alternative to systemd, so that the hegemony will cease to exist.

    the package selection wasn’t great

    While not applicable in all cases, I’ve had great success with relying on Distrobox in case I had to rely on the repos of another distro to get my software.

    As for siduction, it was just a touch too buggy (i.e. XScreensaver caused the laptop to freeze when I closed the lid) and too preconfigured to be able to resolve easily. It also played havoc with my school’s BYOD internet.

    Interesting! I didn’t know that siduction is relatively unpolished.

    I’ll probably go back to it at some point, though.

    I wonder if perhaps SpiralLinux does a better job.

    Of course, the main reason for this new install is that I just bought an SSD, and I’d rather start fresh than try to flash my old hard disk across.

    Relatable 😜.
