Windows 11 now comes with its own adware
Regarding the stability issue on a dev machine - you may be interested in playing with one of the immutable-os distros, such as SilverBlue (fedora based).
The high-level take-away is you can't break your actual OS since it's root filesystem is read-only, and you use "pet" containers (on docker, podman, whatever) to do your work in. Applications are either sandboxed via Flatpak, or installed/run inside your pet containers. If your pet container dies, you cry about it for a moment, and when you're ready you get a new one - your actual os and other containers remain unaffected.
I use distrobox[1] to create/run the pet containers.

Tools for Linux Distro Hoppers
Distrobox is a tool that enables us to try Linux distro CLI, including their package manager. This requires a containerization tool (e.g., Docker). In Windows, this can be achieved using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)
- Distrobox: Use any Linux distribution inside your terminal

Fedora Atomic Desktops
I use containerized versions of things, ubuntu and chainguard images mostly.
You can always create containers with init if that's how you want to do that though. Some distros publish images that come that way: https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox/blob/main/docs/useful_...

Operating System?
Yes, you can do that but I've seen others use something like distrobox to run linux inside of SteamOS: https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox/blob/main/docs/posts/steamdeck_guide.md

How much will I screw up my system after installing Merkuro Calendar (KDE Akonadi application), formerly called Kalendar, on GNOME?
For such cases you might use something like this: https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox

Battery consumption of using remote development with WSL2?
Btw #3: Depending on what the user is trying to accomplish, e.g. maybe to make WSL(2) itself more of a "subsystem" than a "container engine", using something like Distrobox or nsbox.dev can be a good idea (along with Docker or Podman in Distrobox's case; the other one uses systemd-nspawn).

Cannot run containers with Distrobox
1. Find here in "Containers Distros" section the distro image that you want to install ("Toolbox" versions are better because they are configured for Distrobox) and get it URL: https://distrobox.it/compatibility/#containers-distros 2. Use that URL to create Distrobox: distrobox create -i registry.fedoraproject.org/fedora-toolbox:39 -n fedora_1_39 3. Enter Distrobox fedora_1_39: distrobox enter fedora_1_39 4. You are already in Distrobox console. Look at the name in console, it should be include the container name. 5. To exit Distrobox: exit 6. If you run: distrobox list you will see all distroboxes on the system. You will also see that distrobox that we exited is still running. 7. To stop distrobox use commands: distrobox stop fedora_1_39

hi, i installed java through the terminal, but it isnt an option in the "open with other application" menu, even when looking through "view all applications", please help.
maybe you need an IDE or something?

Running GUI apps within Docker containers
Because Flatpak imposes some design choices that are... less than optimal for porting existing applications, and if you ask them to change maintainers will insist this is the way to go.
They have told users that if they want, for instance, Jetbrains IDEs to work, they should simply get a Job at Jetbrains and convince them to rewrite their entire IDE to support the flatpak model.[1]
This is the reason I avoid distros with Flathub enabled by default. Half the software on there is broken in some pretty subtantial way, and nobody at Flatpak or Flathub cares. They really need to realize they're not Apple, they simply can't tell everyone to do things their way and hope to build a working and reliable ecosystem.

Intellij is avaliable on flathub to be downloaded ( https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.jetbrains.IntelliJ-IDEA-Community ), also you can download Eclipse from Gnome Software
