TBH, as a previous Solus user, I don't think I'd go back.

Part of the rise of the Linux desktop is that I have options that are stable, supported, and likely won't vanish into the ether anytime soon. Feels bad to think, but, eh, I'm just too old for anything else. 😀

  • I think that people are really hesitant to talk about when they're having a hard time, never mind admit that they might be lumped into the 'disabled' bucket.

    We're, uh, not great about how we treat people w/disabilities in our society. Having something that is 'supposed to happen to other people' happen to you is rough.

  • Yeah, like, there are plenty of people out there with long COVID. I have relatives with it. I have coworkers who are on leave because of it. About 5% of the US seems to have activity-limiting long COVID at any given time: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/covid19/pulse/long-covid.htm

    Shit's bad.

  • Indoors in public, all the time.

    I don't want to catch COVID again if I can help it. It's a shitty, dangerous virus.

    TBH, I don't think most people understand that it's not just a bad cold--it's a virus that attacks your vascular system that also does some nasty respiratory stuff. The increased risks of heart attacks and strokes after even a mild infection are not great, and if you're getting infected every year, you're permanently carrying that elevated risk.

    More about Red Hat's decision to make CentOS Stream the primary repository for RHEL sources.

    Some mix of wrong and right, the exact proportions of which I'll leave as an exercise to the reader.
