• Chromebooks will get 10 years of automatic updates

  I literally did some web dev work on my Samsung Chromebook Series 5 550 (released 2012) last week. It's running linux[1] at this point (since it's EOL), and is a little slow, but it's still perfectly functional for running vscode and a local webserver. (As others have pointed out, browsing the reset of the bloated web is a pain, though) [1] https://galliumos.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Linux Install Hanging, Never Completes, No Error Message, Connection Strong and Stable

  I apologise in advance; I have no idea what is causing this issue with your Chromebook. I had hoped I could be of assistance, but I am unable to. I hope that whatever issue you were having with your Chromebook has been resolved. If you want to install Linux on your Chromebook, try GalliumOS. Source: about 1 year ago

  Install RW Legacy Boot and load up a full Linux distro and just use your laptop like a Linux laptop. https://mrchromebox.tech/#home and https://galliumos.org/...getting way more janky and complicated now... Source: about 1 year ago

• Linux hit over 3% desktop user share according to Statcounter

  I'd suggest trying Nobara and/or Garuda - both are absolutely easymode to install from a USB stick, and are specifically configured for gaming, but have a pretty different look and feel. Nobara is a very plain, kind of old fashioned, plain feeling UI (it rather reminds me of Windows 2000 in some ways, although it's much more advanced of course) while Garuda showcases just how fancy your desktop can look.

• Please Help me for my search

  Personally, I feel like rolling release distros 'should' include a properly configured (GRUB-)Btrfs+Timeshit/Snapper by default. This will enable the user to rollback to a working system whenever a breakage occurs; even from the GRUB-menu. As the 'unadulterated' Arch is a blank slate upon which you 'should' tinker to your heart's content, it doesn't do this by default. However, you're highly encouraged to set it...

• Is artix a good alternative to manjaro

  Personal recommendation would be Garuda Linux. Like Manjaro it is 'opinionated'; sets up (GRUB-)Btrfs+Timeshift/Snapper, comes with a bunch of very useful GUI-tools etc. Source: 11 months ago

• If you have a plan to use the galaxybook with linux, you don't have to buy Galaxybook.

  Yes... Most Linux Distro's the sound doesn't work... Garuda Linux is the only one I found that everything works. Source: 11 months ago
