I was thinking about trying openSUSE tumbleweed and I was wondering if someone of you already use it as daily drive what do you think about it, everything is useful since I’m still learning and exploring all my possibilities.

    First, I am writing this on 4 hr of sleep. Apologies if I get stuff wrong. I would say there are 3 main levels of privacy for OS.

    1. Normal OSs - Stuff like windows and macos. I might put Ubuntu here too, that one is somewhere between 3 and 2.

    2. Decent stuff - Most Linux is here. OpenSUSE and other mostly free distros fit here. Best mix of privacy and daily drivability for general use.

    3. Extreme privacy - I don’t know much about this one but it is for stuff like Tails. It offers the best privacy but unless you are a darkweb drug lord / whistleblower / journalist it is probably not for you.

    My point is for the most part, anything in 2 should be fine, and that is most conventional Linux distros. A quick list of stuff I would put in 2 in no particular order:

    • Debian
    • Fedora
    • Nixos
    • Arch
    • Endeavor os
    • Opensuse
    • Mint (or lmde)
    • Slackware
    • FreeBSD

    There are tons more but you can probably get the gist from that.

        • Possibly linux@lemmy.zip

          Try leaving your phone outside of the sleeping area and set time limits on when you look at you phone.

          You’ll fall asleep eventually if there is nothing to do but sleep. You also could try reading
