Linux distributions for beginners in 2024: Expert tested and reviewed
I’ve seen Raycast adjacent apps for Linux, but I don’t know what the current go-to all the kids are using these days. I used Quicksilver on OS X back in the day, which kind of defined the category I think. But these days I try to keep it simple.
Elementary OS seems to be trying to solve for the design issue, but it’s not as polished as macOS and there are still all the 3rd party apps to contend with. I’ve tried it, and it didn’t have me considering a full time switch.
https://elementary.io/
For me, one of the big things keeping me on macOS is the sync between devices. 20 years ago it seemed much easier to move to Linux, because I didn’t have to worry about my contacts, calendar, etc being in sync everywhere. Having all that stuff, and the handoff between devices, just work is a huge benefit. There are probably ways to sync various things between iOS and Linux, but then researching all the options, setting it up, and keeping up on it all, becomes a hobby. That’s not a hobby I want at this stage of my life.

Linux Lite: Easy to Use Free Linux Operating System
I thought ElementaryOS was dead due to infighting between the two cofounders, but it still seems to be going: https://elementary.io/
(I installed it on one box a few years ago and liked it, but moved back to Ubuntu once I learned about its conflict in the team.)

Recommend me a distro for my stepdad
As an alternative to the other (great) suggestions, check out ElementaryOS.

How many of you are still using mullvad?
But get an old laptop, download and install on it https://elementary.io/, or PopOS or Debian (they all resemble macOS) or whatever distro you like the most. And start tinkering.

Package management
I would suggest installing elementaryOS inside a VM, and follow their getting started guide

Old laptop,need help with an os.
Maybe take a look at https://elementary.io/? It was one of the better "out of the box" linux distros when I was last using linux.

It warms my heart seeing all my fellow linux users here! 😊 I personally use elementary OS because the desktop is pretty 🥺. Also, the lead of the project is a trans woman!

Damn Small Linux 2024
I was looking for a lightweight OS to run on old Asus Eee PC 1005 HA, which uses a 32-bit Intel Atom N270 processor. I installed Void Linux (https://voidlinux.org/).
I may give DSL 2024 a try and see how it compares.

How do I update one of these premade ESP32 boards?
My computer is running Void Linux and it has only a wired network connection. I can hook up my phone for USB tethering if I need to connect to the WiFi of the ESP32. How do I update the software without downloading some shady programs from filesharing site links on my system? I have the Arduino IDE and the esptool.py script installed.

Hyphens, minus, and dashes in Debian man pages
Classic "everyone is using the software wrong, but it's the fault of everyone, and not the software".
Some distros like Void seem to patch this out.[1]
From mandoc/mdocml's mandoc_char(7) [2]
In roff(7) documents, the minus sign is normally written as ‘\-’. In manual pages, some style guides recommend to also use ‘\-’ if an ASCII 0x2d “hyphen-minus” output glyph that can be copied and pasted is desired in output modes supporting it, for example in -T utf8 and -T html. But currently, no practically relevant manual page formatter requires that subtlety, so in manual pages, it is sufficient to write plain ‘-’ to represent hyphen, minus, and hyphen-minus.
Which is the common-sense thing to do.
Meanwhile, GNU projects become increasingly less relevant due to obnoxiousness like this.
In general the amount of wankery of "the correct hyphen" is staggering.

Thoughts on Void Linux?
So I was about to configure a new Archlinux build on my PC and came across Void Linux. I had already read about it a year ago but never researched it in depth. I know that is a Linux distribution made from scratch, with a different package manager and so on. Void Linux users or people who have tried it, what are your thoughts on it? Do you think the PM is easy to use? what about updates and bugs? what desktop or Tilling Window Manager do you use? could you tell me about it?
