Oof…

I’m a programmer! I use Linux and Windows. In fact, I’m now in my second job in a Microsoft shop (and no, neither were/are .NET…). And I’ve had exactly zero jobs where I was issued or allowed to use a Linux machine.

Almost 10 years into my own Linux journey, I’m feeling the pull to Debian.

I’m just hanging out in denial right now on Pop OS.

Thanks, I’ll look into that. KDE is awesome and it would be fun to contribute in some small way.

I’m a developer, but my career has been very web-focused. What languages would I need to learn to contribute to KDE apps?

Do we work together?

Yes, please!

I write C# for a living and I’m the same - Windows at work, Linux at home.

I use VSCode on both OSes. On Linux, I only use VSCode for C# and I have the MS-free version for any other languages I want to use.

I also use VSCode 95% on my work laptop which is a Windows machine. The extension Ms are really good and the dotnet CLI is pretty robust. There are also extensions that can help you deploy stuff to Azure too.

Honestly, I don’t even try native versions (when they exist) for most games. I go straight to Proton or Lutris.

Yeah, I’m a Pop user and like what they do with Gnome now. I can’t wait to see what it’s like when the desktop isn’t limited by the Gnome extension system.

Yeah, obviously not great. Hence why I only use it for testing.

I would love to ignore Chromium based browsers completely I’m a web developer, so I can’t.

I wish there were a Chromium browser I could have the warm fuzzies about, but I’m not aware of one.

It’s kinda the same with Brave. Just take 2 seconds to turn off the crypto thing and forget it was ever there.

I’m primarily a Firefox user but keep Brave around for Chromium-based browser testing.

Just turn it off, folks!

Like Blazor, it’s another way to do SSR.

Hehe, yeah. Missed a word there!

I buy all my hardware, laptop and desktop parts, for these reasons.

Asking the real questions here.

Endeavour is great. I would also advise taking a look at the KDE version of Fedora.

That is, indeed, a LOT of things!

We should be so lucky…

Like EndeavourOS!
