Why would you subject yourself to Gnome voluntarily???

I use Arch btw

Rates are not going back to sub-2% for a long time

I disagree quite strongly.

Economies limping along at ~1% GDP growth per year and little or no GDP per capita growth can’t handle larger base rates for long. It’s a self-correcting cycle - if base rates remain elevated for too long discretionary spending will collapse and many, many businesses/loans/credit with it.

Rishi promised to half inflation not because he’s a financial genius with a secret trick, but because he knows two things: 1) what I said above, 2) inflation is often given as a YoY measure, so by December 2023 we’re measuring inflation above the 10% inflation of December last year, and the country can’t afford 10% inflation per year for long either.

I’ve been using Garuda Dragonized for over a year. It’s been no problem at all, runs well and is obviously Arch behind the Garuda additions (which are few and pretty much optional to use). It’s a simple way to start using Arch.

They do provide some useful stuff - garuda-update is helpful enough and the maintainers are active, typically getting package fixes out on the day issues are identified.

But yeah, it’s basically Arch. If you like Arch you’d like this, if you don’t like Arch you won’t. If you don’t want stuff pre-installed you won’t like the dragonized edition.

Right, but if they have a CasualUK and you have a CasualUK and some other instance has a CasualUK you just end up with a split audience.

That’s basically what I meant. Feddit is UK-specific, makes a lot of sense.

I reckon this little community should be shifted to feddit.uk, keep all the UK communities in one place innit.

Using Garuda (basically just Arch with some bloat) because I’m 1) too lazy to install Arch myself and 2) on an Nvidia card and Wayland WMs still seem buggy for me. Once (if ever) Wayland is stable on Nvidia I’ll probably look for an alternative
