I exclusively push to main branch, but I Am the only one who works on the projects I code stuff for and as long as I do Not give the OK for something to be used its ain’t gonna get used.

That looks hella dystopian

It is Not that Bad. The installation isnt that hard, if you use a tutorial. In terms of maintaining its mostly a “hit or miss” scenario. I heard from people who had no issues at all and from people who ran into issues all of the time. I can say, that I did not have that much problems. In about 2 years of relative frequent use of arch I only bricked my system once, leading to my is being unfixable and me having to reinstall the whole OS. I ran into smaller problems of which, except for one, where I found a manual temporary workaround and couldn’t bother to fix it completely, all could be fixed. I would not recommend to use it on a machine, where you can’t risk eventually having to fix it for one or two days.

If you want to learn about Linux on a deeper level Mint is probably not the best choice for it, since it aims at providing a Distros for non tech literate users. For this goal I would recommend Arch Linux, since the installation an maintaining teaches you quite a bit. Main Problem is, that Arch is sometimes quite unstable. If you like to suffer to learn you can also try out Gentoo or NixOS or crea[e your own Linux with Linux from scratch.

Alternatively yay install [software] or flatpak install [software]

From what I remember Mint is probably the most brain dead easy Distros you could use. Almost everything has a GUI if I remember. Its mainly a mix of what Distro/DE you use and how much you want to tinker.

There are some parts of Gen Z that can actually tear stuff apart and actually fix systems, but those are the nerds (which also includes me) that care enough to actually learn stuff. The majority is quite tech illiterate

Danke für den Lacher

Alternatively, you can tuck it in my ass /s

Testing means, that you dont trust your coding abilities. Dont be a pussy and dont test your code /s
