From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

guix home reconfigure home-config.scm
fortune, cowsay
ne is my preferred CLI text editor... others would be: ranger, rtorrent, irssi, git, btop, and others that are not coming to mind right now..
I prefer btop to htop.
I don't migrate any config file, always from scratch. My setup isn't that complicated. Fedora for a long time.
GUI (mostly Flatpaks):
- Firefox
- Chromium (for Xbox Cloud Gaming)
- Extension Manager
- Flatseal
- VeraCrypt
- Stremio
CLI:
- Syncthing
Does the cloud gaming work pretty well? I'm trying to consider how to move my main rig to Mint, but also not lose my three years of game pass. I think dual boot is likely but feels purpose defeating haha.
I have no technical problems. The only tricky part was setting up my controller (good old PS2), as I did have to mess with emulation and things like that. In the end, I just have to run a xboxdrv script before running the game. If you have an original Xbox controller it shouldn't be a problem.
Anyway, if you encounter any issue: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Gamepad
EDIT: If you were asking about the cloud gaming experience, it's pretty good I would say. The image will not be as good as a "physical" Xbox, and probably you will have to deal with queues depending on your location. But, overall, it's a pretty good deal.
git clone ssh://theseus@hive2.local/~/dotfiles.git
CLI:
- git

- lazygit
- my dotfiles (i have them on gh and then use a bare repo)

- tools for whatever langs I'm using, usually rust or golang
GUI:
- Steam - games are on a separate disk that I add to /etc/fstab so I just need to add it to Steam and I'm good to go
