Hmm… I may have to try Manjaro again, but the simple fact that there are 2 GUI package managers is not a great sign for total noobs. The main reason I’ve been staying away from it tho is the cert controversy and the arch repo ddos.

Yeah I know it has a GUI app for installing software, though IIRC isn’t it more similar to something like Synaptic than GSoftware?
I’ve actually had pretty bad experiences with Manjaro. No. 1, it cones with a lot of “apps” that aren’t obvious in what they do, and package management on Arch and Arch-based distros is very very not obvious to beginners (Syu? What does Syu mean. Wait, you mean I’m updating my whole system every time I want to install something? Where’s GNOME Software? Etc)
So… Windows?
Any particular reason you want Gab and not Mastodon that it’s based on?
Starbound. I’ve played the crap out of it. I still haven’t finished it tho…
Oh I know. I have a linux laptop that I use for gaming. I’m just going to a party where we plan to play gmod and some of the others don’t have laptops so I thought I’d see if my Mac would be suitable. It wasn’t.
Just tried Steam for Mac the other day, and there is a very good reason why it’s so low. Modern macs don’t even let you play games made for Mac!! Since 32-bit support was dropped, you pretty much can’t play any Source games like HL2 or Gmod.
That’s super cool, and actually useful cause it tells you something as opposed to being inactive text.
Personally, I host Sandstorm, and Discord music bot, and Minecraft.
My favorite has been Sandstorm.io ever since I discovered it. Sure, it doesn’t look as pretty as the others, but it’s super easy if you use one of their free hostnames.
