You probably already know but just in case, xournal++ is a good alternative I’ve been using. Not quite as feature rich but does all the basics. Linux on a windows tablet is a surprisingly usable experience, if a little janky.
No flatpak? Who uses flatpak in the terminal?
Also pretty much every distro has some sort of GUI update manager.
I think the real thing we need to do to attract windows users is have tuxkart installed by default.
I had issues with debian-based distros as well, that’s why I switched to fedora. I also think the go 3 has better support in general. The cameras are still annoying but things have gotten better, with Firefox getting libcamera support.
I agree but also I saw the words “vote” and “nix” and nearly had an aneurism.
I personally got a surface go 3. Put fedora on it and the surface kernel and it works pretty good - GNOME’s interface honestly works better for touchscreens then windows. Just be aware that some config might be needed - I had an issue with the keyboard that required making a udev rule (I documented it on the surface kernel github issues page).
they aren’t publicly traded so that’s probably part of the reason.
This isn’t even an issue though, its just to fix bugs with certain websites that block Firefox for no reason or have other weird compatibility issues. Which I would think is a good thing?
There are so many legitimate things to complain about with Mozilla, why do people go out of their way to complain about the most innocuous shit.
There’s experimental support, they’re hoping it’ll be feature complete by 2026.
I’ve seen arch gain a lot of popularity lately, at least in my circles.

Steam hasn’t (afaik) revoked access from a game that someone already owns, and DRM on steam is entirely optional, even if you use the steamworks sdk. (source: I am a developer making a game using the steamworks sdk that can run without steam open or installed)
The Mint upgrade tool got flatpak support so I don’t even use the terminal to update anymore.
You posted something that’s bad practice (for many reasons, including security). Like, nobody cared about your software habits until you posted them publically with no prompting. probably so you could act smug after getting downvoted.
Some build advice:
Hope that helps, and don’t let it scare you away - it’s really fun to do and if you’re careful, chances are nothing major will go wrong.
It depends on how you install stuff. Games on Steam or downloaded from online from places like itch.io can be put on any drive without issue.
In terms of software though, native packages (deb, rpm) are gonna want to put files in various system folders, so it’s pretty much impossible to get those off your os drive.
Other packaging solutions can help with this though. Appimages can be put anywhere, nix let’s you install to another drive, same with flatpak.
And if you’re savvy, you could use docker to install system packages on other drives, although I wouldn’t recommend it.
So I use a surface device with the Linux surface kernel, and there was (and probably still is) an issue where the type cover doesn’t properly rebind after being detached and re-attatched. To make matters worse, connecting other USB devices disconnected the type cover. My solution was to make a udev rule that detected if the keyboard is “removed” and then try to rebind it, effectively unplugging it and plugging it back in again in software.
Yeah probably the biggest strength of gnome. Often feels better suited for tablets than windows is.
