I actually switched to Fedora from Debian recently and haven't found either to be buggy under KDE. I've been using Linux for longer than many I remember just about every release of kde and gnome back to the start. Gnome never felt right after 2.0. I ended up using xfce for many years. I've tried gnome here and there and the current version is OK, but it still feels off.

That said I've seen bugs and workarounds in nearly every kde or gnome I've used, occasionally bad enough to cause me change. I'd still pick either one over windows in a heartbeat.

I do see a visual glitch here and there, but I'm never certain if I should chalk it up to kde or something else.

Check out James Enge. He wrote a series that I really enjoyed that sounds like just what you are looking for.

Ptyxis is my current go-to. It can detect available pods or toolboxes (maybe docker too haven't tested it) and you can open terminals directly into them. It also highlights ssh terms and root shells differently.

There are a huge number of built-in color schemes as well and I've had no trouble finding any configuration option I've found myself wanting to look for.

It's also available on flathub so it's easily installed in most distros.

I just treat them like regular pickles and refrigerate after opening.

Whoa I had no idea about this. Just put an m2 nvme in my refurbished 2017 HP elitedesk and didn't even know to check for sata vs nvme. I thought they were all nvme.

I'm stealing this 👍

Mine is a 2020 with 32gb storage and 3gb ram but same ballpark. I just replaced my PC earlier this year but the Chromebook is next. I'm looking at renewed HP elitebooks or renewed ThinkPads, but I'm not sure either come in a size OP would want.

Came to second this. I have an old hp Chromebook that is indestructible, has insane battery life, and still has a few years of updates left. The built in Linux terminal is fine and just about anything you can get through apt-get, dpkg, or otherwise works fine as well (if there is an arm version), it'll even add menu entries for GUI apps.

I do light reading or dev work on it, and use the built in terminal to keep track of and ssh into my remote boxes. I take it on the road to take notes or hop on a wifi.

When I first got it the interface was kinda crap for a laptop, but through the updates (dark mode, new menu, etc) it's actually just fine now.

It's slow, low ram and only usable for a few tabs at a time, but for what I use it for it does fine, and it was cheap enough I won't cry if it dies.

I dual booted a few times back in the days of winxp and win7. Never had a good experience somehow windows or a grub update always messed up things. Haven't ran windows in years but when I have to it goes on a separate drive now.

I'm going to say yes as I sit here wearing a fedora tank top.

You can import CSV files directly into an SQLite database. Then you are free to do whatever sql searches or manipulations you want. Python and golang both have great SQLite libraries from personal experience, but I'd be surprised if there is any language that doesn't have a decent one.

If you are running Linux most distros have an SQLite gui browser in the repos that is pretty powerful.

Hey thanks I'm sure they will be!
