less hard than running debian or redhat back in the 90s

Zoomers will never know the pain... and the joy and actually getting it installed!

Stable means not updated.

Oh no! I haven't got the latest push from 30 seconds ago. My operating system is so out of date and I'm so uncool!!11

No flavour of Linux works well with them. That's the joke or something.

If someone is accepting the fact that shit might go sideways, is willing to learn through experiencing issues first-hand or simply likes to spend time fiddling with their OS to find the perfect setup for them - that should be the Arch- and Arch-derivatives audience.

But once you leave the comfort of your parents house, time is money and no one has a spare twelve hours to get a functional OS together when another distro would do it in minutes.

Although Ive been using linux for 2 years now, and i still want an installation manager with sane defaults.

Have you heard about our Lord and Saviour, Debian?

Do you use a macro keyboard for shortcuts? If so, what for and what size? (programming.dev)

Macro keyboards are mini programmable USB keyboards that can be pressed to trigger shortcuts, a sequence of keypresses etc. They can have several layers so switching to a different one will trigger different keypresses from the same key, so e.g. different IDEs can be represented.

I've just bought one with a view to setting up shortcuts for debugging. Each IDE has its own unique keys for navigating through the code, so I figure it'll be nice to just press one key to start debugging and one key to step into instead of a combination of ctrl+whatever etc

Do you use one? If so, what do you use it for and what size do you use? Is it too big / too small?
