I like playing tall and I’m not a huge fan of the micromanagement that comes with the sprawling empires. Civ 5 limits this through happiness. Civ 6 doesnt. Throw in an artstyle that i dont like and i just dont want to play it as much

Distro hopping gets addictive and honestly if you’re happy with where you are i wouldnt recommend you switch anything.
Buuuuut if you’re going to do it anyways EndeavourOS. Its arch for begginers you can branch out to more complex things if you want but the install is painless and works out the box. Arch is in general VERY customizable but its a double edged sword so having guardrails during the setup is helpful.
Iirc manjaros problem is that its half arch in that it does staggered updates which doesnt mesh well with aur.
EndeavourOS handles the install so you dont have go through a complicated install just like manjaro does. But from there you basically have a barebones arch install with no staggered updates or anything. So all the kde packages should be up to date there too.
I did try manjaro forst and ditched it but i dont remember why.
I do use gnome though so take this with a grain of salt.
I can say I’ve never had a stability issue with arch though.

I asked myself the same thing bc i read this and I’m still skeptical.
I don’t think they could present anything that would exonerate them except literal recordings proving the accuaations false. Which sucks if they’re innocent, but like i said im skeptical.
What sits wrong with me here is that one of the underlying complaints was on the basis of there being few or no other women in the workplace and it allowing for the existence of a hostile work environment. Thats not a problem that gets fixed by suing the woman speaking out on these potential issues.
I’d start watching them again if they prove consistently that they are trying to resolve the underlying issues that were brought up. Having more female representation etc. That and time.
Our fields are close enough that i can comment on this.
When I’m looking at your resume here’s what i gather about you. Student, with no relevant job experience who has done school projects that might indicate alignment with what we’re doing.
The problem with resumes like these are that I have no proof that you’re capable and its not fair of me to expect proof because that comes with experience.
What I usually do is look for passion projects. Anything that indicates that you have a genuine interest in the field that i can follow up on. Then I’ll talk to you in an interview about that to confirm your problem solving skills.
Pretty much everything else can be taught.
Lets say you configured a nas server at your house or self hosted something like pihole or jellyfin (career specific) that stands put way more than a class project.
I get your frustration. Certs matter education matters too, the problem that you have is that i have 20+ resumes that look exactly like yours. I cant interview them all. So i need something that makes you stand out.
If you have a github accoutn thats the easiest way. Add a link to your resume and people will look at the work you’ve done for class projects and go off of that.
Personal projects dont have to be ones that cost money assuming you have at least one computer. Write up a simple powershell script to handle a task that you need to do or something. Extra points if its on git hub so somebody can look at it.
Thats actually why i brough up the pihole project that one can be setup on any computer in a home network very easily. Displays basic sysadmin/networking skills to setup, and is pretty cool to have once its done. To be fair that one takes a bit more work though.
You dont have to go that far out of your way to do some of these and they do separate you from the crowd.

It is. But in your defence at this point it only matters when something goes wrong. And that’s getting pretty rare.
I think it’s why there’s such a clear divide between people who “just use Linux” and those who don’t. Modern computers hide almost all information that would let you figure stuff out on your own and Linux makes you figure stuff out like once a month.
But all that means is that your choices are more and more limited. And it’s how Microsoft is able to sneak such predatory practices into their OS. You can’t go anywhere else
