  • Operating System Wars, what is the best operating system for programming. ⚔️
    Back in the day, I used snapd, which is similar to Mac's Homebrew. - Source: dev.to / about 2 hours ago
  • Tools for Linux Distro Hoppers
    Hopping from one distro to another with a different package manager might require some time to adapt. Using a package manager that can be installed on most distro is one way to help you get to work faster. Flatpak is one of them; other alternative are Snap, Nix or Homebrew. Flatpak is a good starter, and if you have a bunch of free time, I suggest trying Nix. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago
  • Setting Up for Java on Linux.
    My personal favourite IDE for java is Intellej Idea. Apart from not demanding the extra extension, It was designed special for Java and Java related languages so it runs java smoothly with great compilation time. So lets install it. Make sure you have snap before installing it. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago
  • Why is Linux so hard and anti GUI?
    Linux Mints App Store is full of GUI programs, Snap Store ist full of it, Flathub is full of it. Source: 5 months ago
  • This might seem dumb but where tf does snap put the actual files and stuff?
    You are being lazy. But I recommend bringing your ass directly to snapcraft.io and reading those documents in the Learn section!! Source: 5 months ago
