lemmyreader,

blog.paulbiggar.com/meta-and-lavender might be worth reading.

I like rdiff-backup (like someone already mentioned in a comment) for some things but if you want a GUI :

Tested them both. First one can scheduled backups and iirc it will ask you to insert the USB disk you used when the time is there.

lemmyreader,

/e/OS is based on LineageOS with microG. They did make a choice for Magic Earth as maps app which is not open source. For “normies” /e/OS seems a fine choice to me to De-Google.

lemmyreader,

Have other comments made you dislike /e/OS ? microG, which /e/OS uses is not using Google but a replacement for the Google Play framework if you would for example need location feature for some of your apps.

lemmyreader,

Yes.

lemmyreader,

Did you check what the connections are about ? Maybe it is only checking for new updates ?

Maybe it is just your LibreWolf profile (in ~/.var/app/io.gitlab.librewolf-community/) that is giving troubles. You can create a new one with :

/var/lib/flatpak/exports/bin/io.gitlab.librewolf-community -P and see how it fares.

lemmyreader,

😀

lemmyreader,

Clonezilla and Rescuezilla The Clonezilla method takes a bit time to get used to (but I like it). Rescuezilla comes with a GUI.

Yes, Waydroid uses lxc containers.

sk, to test

    lemmyreader,

    Indeed. GoboLinux is neat last time I tried it. Although it’s not clear to me how active its development is.

    lemmyreader,

    If you don’t mind reading a little bit and “work hard” to get some things done and “have fun” then I’d suggest to try :

    • NixOS (it can do magic!)
    • Arch Linux (easiest is the Arch based EndeavourOS and the shiny colorful Garuda Linux), learn some pacman and AUR.
    lemmyreader,

    Yes. Haiku is quite light weight, small and snappy. One drawback is that it has not yet multi user implemented (everything still runs as root! But so do old DOS flavors :-) ) but imho it is fun to play with and check which software packages it has (it has several emulators packaged).

    lemmyreader,

    You want to try something interesting but want to dual-boot. That last bit could be difficult or “impossible” but using a VM or running from USB stick are options.

    • www.haiku-os.org I’ve run it from USB stick on some older laptop.
    • chimera-linux.org FreeBSD user-land with a Linux kernel.
    • nomadbsd.org FreeBSD which can be run from USB stick with persistent storage. Has a version with ZFS support.
    • nixos.org Very interesting concept.
    • www.gobolinux.org GoboLinux is an alternative Linux distribution which redefines the entire filesystem hierarchy. Doesn’t seem up to date but quite interesting. If I remember well you can have different versions of software installed at the same time. Let’s say (making this up) Bash 1.1, 3.1 and 5.2
    • bedrocklinux.org Bedrock Linux is a meta Linux distribution which allows users to mix-and-match components from other, typically incompatible distributions.
    lemmyreader,

    Did you do a sha256sum or md5sum checksum after downloading the iso file and after copying it to the Ventoy pendrive ? (Linux uses caching for copying. Taking the pendrive out before your system has done a “safe remove” can cause problems)
