I use Emacs (and libvterm) for almost all my terminal’y needs 😅

In rare cases where I need a terminal outside Emacs, I use Alacritty.

Here’s the relevant config from ~/.config/alacritty/alacritty.yml:

Bash on Terminator with powerline theme from Oh-My-Bash. I think the colors are the generic Linux colors in Terminator.

rakstar , in Your best terminal aliases

Technically not aliases but I have these in my ~/.bash_aliases so…

bind ‘“\e[A”: history-search-backward’
bind ‘“\e[B”: history-search-forward’

Type a few letters and press up/down arrow to scroll through matching history entries.

Also…

alias s=“cd -”

It’s like Alt+Tab for CLI.

Nothing interesting it’s xfce-terminal with GreyBird. Simple, but it does the job.

Another XFCE Terminal user here, I use the Dark Pastels preset.

  • fast on my hardware
  • fedora based
  • KDE

Also, gaming works out of the box on my hardware (my gfx card wasn’t fully supported by 5.x kernel)

Another reason to use :)

I’ve been a Mint faithful for a few years now

kalipike , in OpenRGB: Open source, cross-platform RGB lighting control that doesn't depend on manufacturer software

I love OpenRGB. It’s such a fast and lightweight alternative to Corsair iCUE, which is needlessly heavy, clunky, and resource-intensive just to tell your lights what color to be.

Arch (BTW)

gobbling871 ,

I’m currently happy with it

gobbling871 ,

So many powerful tools that are not easy to find on other distros.

gobbling871 ,

Basically, have fine tuned my setup so much that it’s almost impossible to think of another distro.

InternetPirate OP ,

dupe

DigitalPortkey ,

And with archinstall I’d argue it’s about as easy to install as most “normal” distros these days.

ReakDuck ,

I’d also agree… but everytime I tried to use archinstall, it always failed, felt impossible for me to install arch

shapis , in Share Your Favorite Linux Distros and Why You Love Them
@shapis@lemmy.ml avatar

Arch.

I don’t love it, like at all. But it’s the least buggy and easiest to use one I’ve tried.

I really wish there was a simple plug and play, everything just works and doesnt break on updates distro.

Pop!_OS

DarthVi ,

I agree, it’s great!

  • image with baked in nvidia drivers which work out of the box without too much fuss
  • if you encounter problems, you can refer to the system76 website or use a solution provided by the community, since it’s based on Ubuntu
  • installation with full disk encryption enabled by default
  • right now it uses a slightly customized version of GNOME as DE (with “normal”/traditional windows and optionally a tiling wm), but system76 is working on a Rust-based DE, named Cosmic DE
zybir ,

I’ve been using Pop for about 2 years. I have yet to run into an issue that I couldn’t fix. It’s the first distro that made ditching windows easy.

los_chill ,

I feel the same coming from Mac. Things seem to just work. I’m not a Linux wiz so minimal headaches while learning to tinker make it perfect for me.

fugepe , in Share Your Favorite Linux Distros and Why You Love Them

OpenSuse, Fedora second.

probably_a_robot , in ZorinOS?

This was my first distro! It’s very beginner friendly and customization was very easier without requiring knowledge of GNOME extensions (which aren’t hard to set up once you know they exist). The Wine integration is nothing short of fantastic making it very easy to install Windows apps and it even recommends some native Linux equivalents (Heroic Games launcher if you try to install Epic Games). I have since switched to Fedora Workstation Edition, but Zorin is a good way to dip your toe in the Linux pool while you learn more about it
