Hello DT, Thanks for reviewing our OS. You did a great job explaining the functionality and your personal opinions about our operating system. With all that aside, we would like to kindly mention that Oreon is here for a reason. I've seen a lot of distributions that have nothing other than some extensions slapped onto it and some extra packages shipping with the ISO. Here at oreonproject, we have a goal (as a team) to make an Enterprise Linux distribution that provides more packages and functionality than any other out there. It may sound like an excuse, but it is certainly the goal we plan to stick to. Oreon has a few packages and extra functionality that AlmaLinux, Rocky, CentOS, and RHEL don't have. One of the biggest at the moment is WINE/Proton support. If you try to run WINE or Steam Proton applications and games on these other RHEL compatible OSes, it simply won't function. This is mainly because they don't provide or plan to add the proper architecture to make it run properly. We are also working on a lot for the next major release, which is planned to release in 2025. One being an all in one system manager aimed to make it easy to manage your system's packages, drivers, containers, and virtual machines all in one application. We will also soon release a rolling-release edition of Oreon so people can get brand new packages right away. You will see, over time we will have a bigger selling point, leading to a growing user base. People like DT help get these projects recognized and we at oreonproject would like to say thank you. 😀
One of the very few things I actually like about modern Gnome is that they use the "generic" name for apps as their main names. I use Plasma, but I take the time to edit each .desktop file to swap Names and Generic Names to replicate that. I guess to me it's a million times more important that the app is a Document Viewer than it is that it's named Okular, for instance. Well, to each their own-- that is much of what Linux is about after all.
it also depends on how you prefer to invoke your programs. if you ever need to launch from terminal it's useful to know the "true" name of the program, and Gnome's way of doing things obscures that
@@xXx_Regulus_xXx Absolutely no argument. That's why I move the true name of the program to the Generic Name slot. You still see it, it's just basically the subtitle. Knowing the true name of the app is invaluable. Unlike on Windows, where you can launch an app from the command prompt but doing so affords no real advantage, there's a *ton* you can learn when troubleshooting a Linux app by launching it from the Terminal.
I think it's the fact that the disk shows a checkmark, but it's not actually selected. And also that you click "Done" buttons on the bottom right and top left, instead of being consistent.
Automatic is only automatic if there is enough space on the available partitions. When selecting automatic with Ubiquity and Calamres. It will resize the portions. Another flaw in Anaconda is when you forget a step, it is no obvious which step you forgot. I've always called Anaconda the choose your own adventure installer. 😂
There's constantly new distributions that pop up... And 99% of them are useless. and literally bring nothing to the table except for themeing Case in point this one
Realistically, there’s only 8 distros worth knowing: Debian Fedora Arch openSUSE NixOS Gentoo Alpine Void Everything else is either one of the above with some minor tweaks or so obscure as to be borderline useless.
What would you want to see in an operating system that hasn't existed in ever single operating system since 2000? There's not a lot new that CAN be brought to the table other than AI related stuff
@@neilpatrickhairless I said it once. What exactly is wrong with you, unless you're just 14 years old or something? Don't tell me what words to use. Are you in charge of me? You're not, jerk.
Hey DT. I ended up in a bit of a dillema with backing up Ubuntu using timeshift with rsync. Happened so, the backups started hogging up too much space on my main hard drive. So I plugged in a new hard drive and wanted to transfer the whole lot of timeshift backups onto the new one. Unfortunately I do not find any way of officially doing this in timeshift. All I see is the option to change the place where timeshift should store it's backups and that's all. I doesn't move anything around. I tried manually coping from nautalis file manager but run into security issues since the timeshift backups are locked and secured. Any suggestions on this?
When you click on the Disk Configuration screen, it will automatically select the one drive that is available. This is the literally the part that confuses you EVERY TIME you install a RHEL based distro, bro.
Looks like it has the "Dash to Panel" extension which is something I absolutely won't use GNOME without. Why the GNOME team even with version 40 made you need to click a button or move the mouse into a hot corner to pull up the dock is beyond me - it's the most annoying thing they've ever done.
That's been the case since GNOME 3. Most good distros just shipped an extension for it to have a permanent dock or panel (like Ubuntu). And no, I don't find Canonical that much better than IBM Hat, but they haven't done (you know what I'm talking about) yet.
That still? It is because the DE is focused on you not having to use the mouse so often. But as most people know computers from a first experience with Windows, they're stuck in this paradigm of the mouse being the main tool to use a computer. I never have to use the hot corner to access the dock. I even disable it in the settings.
@@cameronbosch1213 of course! That's why other DEs exist. That's why when you go buy a car you choose one that meets your needs. You don't buy a mini sedan and use it as you would use a truck to move heavy stuff around and then complain about the car. Gnome is right in keeping its purpose.
All these distros seem to be saying the same thing lately. Your super secure password may not be all that strong and secure after all. Apparently two characters is no longer enough to dictionary attacks. Better go back to the drawing board on your password!
My favorite for my Dell i5 laptop has been Garuda Mint. The family can use it just fine and it works great. Actually super fast as well especially from sleep.
The entire purpose of Alma is to be a free version of RHEL, the whole selling point is that it's fully "binary compatible with RHEL" as seen on the front page of the website
I don't get it lol all of these distribution videos are 95% identical, literally identical... You just show the same applications, kernel version, and ....the wallpapers.. Nothing at all mentioned anywhere talking about actual distribution internal differences amongst the various distribs. Nothing about what makes X distro better or worse off than Y distribution. Sorry but just saying, opening htop to "see how much cpu and ram" we're using, or looking at the browser version... or printing the output of 'uname' or 'uptime', it's all identical and doesn't really serve any purpose because the main thing to discuss would be how different distributions tackle different issues and what sets them apart under the hood. Just saying, when I'm looking for a distribution, I'm not looking at wallpapers or empty readouts of htop while the system is idle, I already should know how much cpu/ram my machine has, or how much storage I have; checking the version of the browser that has shipped along with distribution means little to absolute nothing, same deal as going through the stock menus and just opening all the same apps on every distribution... not sure I follow what the actual goal is
Then why are you here? This isn't a BSD video/chanel. Are you seeking here for some pats on the back and how you are so cool for you using BSD? Because that's not gonna happen.
@@sharkuel well since all Engagement is good Engagement ( concerning Google algorithms.) him writing this is good for DT.... So why complain? And yes this distro is boring
@@danilodistefanis5990 Enjoy your BSD midlife crisis, fam, nobody thinks you are cool. Its people like you that ruin the BSD community. I love the fact that you guys like to shit on Linux users and devs, but don't realize that 80% of the tools used in BSD that bring it to modern standards have been developed by the same "linux girls on their periods". Typical "i need to be part of the cult" behaviour from someone who may have switched last week to BSD and now believes he is hackerman.
