Very good! Please remove anonym/PPA, DoH to cloudflare, Google search, telemetry, and pocket next, and I’ll make a consideration to stop calling your browser malware!

OP was asking about syslog so I answered about using using syslog. You’re reading too much into it. They asked if they could go with or without a syslog daemon, so I told them they can disable syslog if they want to. They did not ask about journald so I didn’t answer about journald.

Like how you cropped my message to make it seem like I was implying you couldn’t disable logging on systemd

Thank you Xhitter for blocking ads!

If you’re on arch you use redhat’s garbage. On non-corpo linux syslog can be disabled if you want, though I’d prefer to just symlink/mount /var/log to a memory filesystem instead.

Nothing, actually. I just decided one day I was going to install Arch Linux for no reason in particular, and now I’m on OpenBSD. I wish I had that kind of determination these days.

This is probably the first time I’ve felt any sort of “hype” for a game release in over a decade. That being said, I’m still not preordering.

I use OpenBSD on my production machine and VPS, I use Alpine Linux on my phone. I’m also partial to Void Linux, though I don’t use it on any of my devices at the moment.

Because I’m a software luddite that believe we peaked in design at BSD/Plan9, and most of the “innovations” of enshittified corporate mainstream distros (redhat userland, atomic/immutable environments, “universal” (unless you’re not on linux) package management, containerization of anything and everything) don’t impress me, and more often than not turn me away. I’m not saying software can’t improve, but when it comes to mainstream linux (especially redhat), innovation is always 0 steps forward 40 convoluted leaps back with bonus windows compatibility.

reliant on upstream sources

Not relevant to independent distributions, which I’d actually consider more of a problem with popular distros very often being forks (most often of debian).

clearly, it’s obviously pronounced jif

Rest in piss, Links2 it is. Maybe netsurf can complete their js engine in 3 billion years.

Linux: qemu

OpenBSD: vmm, qemu when vmm isn’t good enough

add phosh and sxmo for mobile interfaces. I don’t know if the sxmo wayland compositor has an official name; the X11 one is dwm based though.

Holy crap lois, they’re making Skyrim with guns!

I prefer not using journaling filesystems on flash memory, I haven’t had any major data integrity issues yet because of it. I would have made the Alpine fs ext2 as well, but I guess I missed it during install. I think you can just disable journaling in ext4 anyways, so if I care enough I’ll just do that.

Edit: reasons added in because I can’t read the post title

• OpenBSD laptop: ffs2, vfat for efi system partition
  • Why: Contrary to popular belief, OpenBSD does not support zfs. The only other filesystem options are msdos (fat family), and ext2fs (mostly for Linux compatibility as far as I can tell, filesystem is experimental and lacks a bunch of features according to the manpage). Makes ffs2 the only sane option.
• OpenBSD vps: ffs2
  • Why: See above.
• Pinephone running PmOS: ext2 boot partition, ext4 root partition
  • Why: Defaults.
• Void Linux VM: ext2
  • Why: I prefer not having journaling on flash memory. This hasn’t bitten me in the ass too hard yet, and even when it does I can usually get around system files being lost with integrity tools. Maybe I’ll dabble with f2fs some day, but I’ll need to read about its features and shortcomings compared to ext2.
• Alpine Linux VM: ext4
  • Why: Would have installed as ext2 as well, but I forgot
• Steam Deck: ??? (too lazy to check, 9/10 chance it’s ext4)

Yes! Another huge win for links2gang !links2@lemmy.sdf.org
