Grandpa Leslie here in Montreal. Today, I watched your presention on my TV (RUclips is part of my TV electronics, thanks to Amazon firestick or Costco. Thank you so much for your wonderful presentations. I have watched all beginning with your first one. I know the hours you put in to prepare each one of them. You deserve a medal for today's presentation about Tumbleweed. I am by habit a Fedora bigot, but following the above presentation, I am installing Tumbleweed onto a second drive, and will try to fully emulate what you are doing. You really loaded up the presentation with things to keep me busy for a long while. Again, thank you for your presentations.
@@jackkeifer Hi Jack, I, a pensioner, wrote two freeware software programs that you can use. I am the author, I am gifting it to anyone. It is written in C and is a very useful tool.. One is a "fstab file" validate program/formatter, The file does not have to be in the /etc folder, but it has to be on that computer. Since you install and test different distros, the above program may be useful to you. With my program, when you make changes, to the fstab, you would use it to vet the fstab. If it passes, your system will boot. I use the program to avoid the system lockups because of a keyword or parameter misspelling, or wrong uuid, OR other. BTW, I am sure I am 20years older than you. The other is a recursive descent "sha1" calculator program, with special features.
Actually my previous video was a review on Regata, and I reviewed Gecko around early September, 2022, so it's been awhile for Gecko. I remember that I really liked Gecko linux at the time. The only hiccups that I had personally was that it was hard to get distrobox working (it was easy in openSUSE), also USB redirects weren't working for me in QEMU Virt-Manager but were fine in openSUSE Tumbleweed. That was a long time ago though. Maybe it's time for a revisit eh?
Don't agree. I use leap156, which is the business type rock solid distro. I do coding and my compiled executives are smaller and run faster than with Arch based distros. Arch is great, but is great for distro hopping π
Holy cow. Iβve been using the slow repos for months! That alone is worth the whole video.

Thanks for the fantastic critique and wow, hearing that you watched them all since the beginning I'm truly honoured! Thanks for making my Sunday! π₯

thnks man π
Awesome video Jack!
Went to TW 3 years ago and have not distro hopped since. One distro for 3 years
Nice ones, Jack!
Thanks!
Great Video!!
I loved those tips. I'm from Brazil
Thanks Jack! You always make all this stuff look "easy peasy." π
Amazing video
thanks alot...
zypper is painfully very slow.... the dnf seems to speed up abit
do you know if I can then add copr? :)
Dicas Top Top gostei
Is this a good distro? YaST. π€£
YaST right, LoL! π
@jack keifer Have you testen Gecko linux or Regata linux opensuse derivates ?

Manjaro better in everything
Lol no.

@@lsatenstein manjaro for home use is great. everything is ready out of the box. 10 minutes of fine tuning and work
