  1. :/ Well that makes sense, but I was hoping for something more along the lines of programs or software. Applications works, but apps just kinda rubs me the wrong way, an itch I can't scratch lol. It feels like some kind of really dirty term.

  2. 4:02 one of the many reasons I think Ubuntu is cancer, I have similar feelings about MacOS, but MacOS gives me even more reasons than Ubuntu, which is not easy to achieve. You didn't really cover manjaro at all, the one thing that sets manjaro apart from the rest is that it's rolling release, although it has LTS kernel options available like everybody else (and even installs that by default) the third party software and libraries you can install via the package manager will always be the latest and greatest whereas on say ubuntu you may be getting a year old version of every program and you will have to jump through a lot of hoops if you want the latest version, and if you want the latest stable kernel release, for whatever reason, it's just a click away. Manjaro is also exceptionally stable, something that cannot be said for most rolling release distros. This is why I would recommend Manjaro over say Xubuntu (or even mint) for people coming from windows, as windows usually gives you the latest software versions by default (e.g. when you go to download google chrome, you don't get last years version of chrome, you get the latest release of chrome, manjaro is like that too, but ubuntu and most other distros are not) It's other benefits include exceptional out of the box hardware/driver support (this is compared to every other distro out there) making it the hands down best option for people with more recent hardware (no more spending hours installing your wifi drivers, it'll just work) and of course, it's fast, it's optimized for speed (by modern standards) right out of the box. and it's performance is second only to clearlinux and perhaps some even further tweaked installations (as in when the user manually tweaks the kernel, which is easily done for example in Gentoo, but that shit's a lot of work)

  3. Krita is not any slower than GIMP... But it can in some cases be slower than photoshop, still, for example in the case of brush engines, krita does indeed have slower brushes than photoshop, but it has significantly more versatile brush engines than photoshop allowing for greater customization, as a tradeoff. I bet if you had choppiness with MPV, you were using an upscaling algorithm that was just too much for your hardware, or not using the opengl renderer, try an mpv front-end like media player classic qt, see how it works, it should have the gl renderer on by default. I know, steamplay is better than POL for games though :D that's why I wanted to mention it. To tell the truth though, I wasn't aware photoshop could run properly through wine until I saw this video, last I checked a few years ago it wouldn't work right.

  4. I see, I just installed a fresh manjaro on my laptop today though with optimus, had no issues at all, except that vulkan doesn't work but there's a workaround for it. Anyhow, my point was kinda that you don't seem like a new user getting your feet wet lol, so you should be going to these sites.
