    This right here is the reason why after district hopping I decided to settle into the Debian universe. Linux is a ton of fun to play and tinker with but if you want to use your computer to do actual work you need to use an OS with software avaliable to run.

    Of course Debian is the only real Linux any user would ever need. Free as in freedom, all the software and been running since the beginning. Why bother bother anything else.

      Arch is viable because the AUR is full of converted debs and package managers keep things up to date. Most distros have a method to install this kind of software but honestly universal out of the box flatpak support can’t come soon enough for consumer distros. We need canonical to give up on snap for Ubuntu desktop
