why not just buy a windows 10 device second hand covering your face, that way the information isnt ascociated with you. then preform all of your based actions in a 4 hour period in a public park. then bury the laptop or cover it in something or something then run away. dont get ur fingerprints on it btw

Don't run any of these garbage scripts from github, it's like running a tranny surgery on your windows installation. They're made by github star-chasing retards who have no idea how windows works behind the scenes and they break things in ways that are nearly impossible to understand or fix. All you need to fix windows is click around in gpedit.msc for a few minutes to disable telemetry, updates, defender, etc and use a decent whitelist-only firewall (not wf.msc which microsoft has kiked for their own purposes).

This bloated garbage is what made me unironically go back to Windows 10 LTSC. I also learned that the GNOME they use is modded and default GNOME is somehow even worse. It also took longer to boot up than windows did.

I hope you blow your brains out you faggot, there is no such thing as "pretending" to be a shill, you're just a shill for a kike company.
Windows is shit but is sadly still needed for a lot of things and gpedit doesn't help anything unless you know obscure options.

Shills like yourself won't even say what gpedit options to use because you just wan't to suck (((Microsoft))) cock for free.
The thing is, privacy.sexy works fine (at least to make windows somewhat usable) if you actually read the powershell script and don't just select things randomly. The site even has a way to revert the changes you made if you "break" something.

jewbuntu sucks
fed-ora is proprietary
mint is proprietary
gentoo is a meme distro

Arch is good to start with because all you need to know is pacman and yay. Then hop to a more free distro like HyperbolaBSD, or Parabola.

Use KDE, MPV, Audacity, Iceweasel, Konqueror, Rutracker.org (for software, audio, moopies), qbittorrent, Invidious (yewtu.be), GIMP/Krita, and FLAC

Don't use TOR, Shitcord, Brave, Chrome, Steam (or any other game launcher), GUHNOME, Xfce, Firezog, and Wine

And ignore wintoddlers, and "Linux" users that don't know what Linux is

Winglows is not bad just because it spies on you at all times and treats you like goycattle. Winglows is bad because it's bloated, slow, crashes often, takes up an absurd amount of RAM when not necessary, keeps your CPU occupied when not necessary, leaves your data in risk of corruption, etc etc.

Winglows is bad because of the UI, the equivalent of 60 kilobyte programs for unix like systems is 500mb-1gb or more, takes 2-4 hours to install, too long to boot up, and gives you unexplained errors you can do nothing about.

There's a lot of idiots, and faggot elitists using unix like/GNU systems, so many that winzog might seem like a simpler choice, but it really isn't. Use simple free software don't pay attention to drooling retards with pointless agendas (distro/software tribalism), and for the love of god don't use Lesbian/Jewbuntu/Gentroon distros or fed-ora it'll make you go back to Winzog.

I'd tell you to go fuck yourself but you probably already are.

Go dilate, archtroon, have you NEVER heard of Calculate Linux? Artix (no SoystemD)? Slackware? Refracta?

As for OP, just use whatever distro you think you can make the best of. Distro wars are largely memes. What are you trying to do with the distro? Are you trying to game? Are you trying to do multimedia? Or are you just trying to write some code and maybe some TPS reports?

That could be done on an ancient machine, with a very minimal distro (Parabola, Hyperbola are among them, but if literally (excuse the californiaism) all you're doing with that specific computer or partition is coding and writing the occasional TPS report, you could go as far as using OpenBSD or Illumos (or if you somehow, hypothetically, managed to gain console access to the IME and a desktop environment on its MINIX operating system, one, replace that shit with a version of MINIX that isn't ZOG'd and report back to /g/, and two, you've just saved a minuscule amount of disk space. I digress).

tl;dr look up distro flowchart / the /g/ OS guide, it should point you in the right direction.

The minutiae can be piddled about with later when you are more confident in your abilities and have taken the precautions to avoid fucking up your important files and configs.

Do avoid ubuntu and fedora, one's a slipshod mess and the other has "fed" right in its name and for good reason - Synchronicity warning you about glow-ware.

From my experience with ubuntu, it's a hellish mess that's made me consider going back to Loseblows a few times. My recommendation is Refracta but if you're using some shit that depends on soystemD for some ungodly reason, maybe OpenSUSE? Debian?

Parabola originatrd from arch retard, and artix is literally a derivative that functions the same. If you don't use KDE because their jewtube channel that the devs don't manage uploaded prideshit you're retarded. Especially when the kernel you use (((troonux))) is not only promoting prideshit, and covid propaganda, but is also partnered with just about every major tech conglomerate and contains proprietary technology. KDE is considerably faster than xfce, I hate it as much as the next guy but it's efficient albeit.

>tl;dr look on tranime incel website /g/ for advice even doe most of them still use winshit
>use lesbian but not jewbuntu even doe jewbuntu originated from lesbian and lesbian is equally proprietary if not even more thoughbeit
Jewbuntu is hellish and proprietary and fed-ora is proprietary and should be avoided, at least we can agree there. Also, Guhnome, Lesbian and Fed-ora use goystemd so I've no idea what you're sperging about.

>Lesbian is the only common non-endorsed distribution to keep nonfree blobs out of its main distribution. Thoughever, the problem partly remains. The nonfree firmware files live in Debian's nonfree repository, which is referenced in the documentation on debian.org, and the installer in some cases recommends them for the peripherals on the machine even doe it's a direct violation of Lesbian's free software license.
Additionally it's shit to use and Lesbian will ban software from their repository if they find that the developer(s) have said "discriminatory things"
>>673
mint includes proprietary binary blobs in drivers packaged with the kernel, and even includes proprietary codecs. also mint has no policy against nonfree bloatware. for amerisharts it should glow more than fed-ora.

Arch is not a distro you should stick with it's just a good starting point for new users.
