endeavouros isnt a real os, its basically just an arch installer with persistent theming and some pointless additional packages (the welcome application and stuff like that)

its not difficult

fedora workstation and plasma have the same status, its no longer the kde "spin"

arch or fedora if it's x86-64

neovim, basic development utilities (gcc, make...), zsh, ssh, btop, nvtop, kitty, river, git, cargo, nix, flatpak, ytdlp, ffmpeg, firefox, chromium, python

.NET is not Windows specific

it literally has one fym

no, if you have qtile set up, it will be a better experience

Arch and Fedora; package managers and repositories.

i do it for Autodesk software, it works pretty well

if youre fine with relying on proprietary software you might as well just run it in a windows 11 ltsc iot enterprise vm

engine, graphics, tooling, physics, and audio programming positions don't always require any artistic interest in the medium. unlike artistic work, they can also pay pretty well.

you probably really shouldn't do that.

use fedora, arch, or ubuntu. dont use any of the pointless ones (mint, endeavour, manjaro,...). they are not worth your time. only use wayland (plasma, river, qtile). xorg is not worth your time or sanity.

simplest pick is fedora kde spin. just use that. hdr should work too.

what are you even taking about? at first you just insult free software developers, then you imply this insult was a meaningful critique of the usability of linux and now i am gatekeeping (you?). weird ass mf.

rp2040 can't run linux?

sounds like a skill issue

maybe linux desktop software developers should be allowed to develop software for their own use? after all, a lot of this work is done by volunteers. just because not all of it panders to the average user, doesn't mean it's bad software.

This product is not reflective of any trend in the linux desktop software developer community at all. its just a badly designed, low volume tech product with horrible specs. its main goal seems to be pice reduction and using as many buzzwords (linux, rust, modular...) as possible just to get funded.

please consider deleting your comments they are just pointlessly insulting toward free software developers.

i am aware that linux is mostly corporately maintained, tough this does not apply to desktop applications / software a non server admin would use.

Raspberry Pi with a display and 3d printed case? would be far more powerful and probably would have nicer software support
