You should look into distros that do this specifically, they are called kiosks. There might be a way to configure your distro of choice to be a kiosk, it is definitely a solved problem.
OpenSUSE Leap seems to be your best choice. It does not have the time consumption of being rolling release, but has a good release cadence. It is also an RPM distro, that should make things feel at least a little bit more familiar.
I use arch with gnome for the last year and arch for like 5 years, mint for years before that… I have less problems than I have using windows on my work laptop. Everything works totally fine.
I need to look into it again. I wanted to stabilize my footage of a Samsung gear 360 with the embedded gyro data but I didn’t got it to work. Maybe I have to try it again.
I wish I could get over the learning curve with GIMP but tbh my current workflow involves a windows 10 virtual machine for Photoshop. It works for my needs without GPU pass through.
Very cool. I’ve done similar layouts but not so far as creating my own highlighting and keywords. Tbh, I prefer pen and paper for my “real life” stuff as I don’t want to be so tied to the computer/phone. But for work, where I’ll be at the computer anyway, I might steal some of these ideas.
For both my home server and desktop I use XFS for root and ZFS (in some variety of raid or mirror) for /home and data storage. Any time I’ve tried btrfs for root (such as default fedora), inevitably it poops the bed. At this point, I stay far away from btrfs.
it seems to be the lightest mint? looks interesting. theres also middle mate mint… hm. in terms of making media… choniest program to go on it would be csp (mayb flstudio if i actually get it). others tend to be light, like pxtone, audacity, mugen, renpy, old rpg makers… i tend to draw non resource heavy art in csp as well… so im sure its good enough… i hope.
I’ve been using RebornOS, which is an arch based distro. I think it fits what you want perfectly. It’s a rolling release and has heaps of customisability and nothing is forced on you.
My current setup is fedora for the last 6 months. I started a live session, installed f2fs and then run the installer with a combination of f2fs + encryption. And it runs flawlessly and faster than any setup before.
Gallium is only for chromebooks. For this i would recommend lmde or mx linux.There is wine for running windows program.Just check the wine index for apps which you would run.
