Ich kann mich (noch) nicht entscheiden, womit ich ein Notebook für mich neu aufsetzen möchte.

Auf der Shortlist stehen
- GhostBSD
- Linux Mint
- Void Linux
- Windows 11

Ich hätte am liebsten ein System ohne systemd, mit aktuellen Paketen, einigermassen schnell und einfach aufgesetzt, mit Festplattenverschlüsselung und mit einem stabilen Update Prozess.

Was würdest Du nehmen?

#OS #Linux #Unix #BSD #GhostBSD #LinuxMint #VoidLinux #Windows11

Frage an die Linux/UNIX-Pros:

Was sind die grundlegenden (Softwarearchitektur-)Unterschiede zwischen Distributionen wie zB Debian und Arch und BSD?

Und worin liegen die jeweiligen Vor- und Nachteile der verschiedenen Architekturen?

BITTE erklärt es so, als müsstet ihr es einem 6-jährigen Kind erklären ;)
(Leichte Sprache)

#Linux #Arch #BSD
