| 02:22:24 |  Gopal | Try removing a group of packages and wait for 30 minutes for XBPS to calculate |
| 02:22:43 |  Démon de Laplace | Arch has bloated packages, iirc. |
| 02:22:50 | Démon de Laplace | In reply to @yozu:kde.orgSounds fun. |
| 02:23:07 | Gopal | Yeah, I dig Void's philosophy too but it's too minimal for my tastes |
| 02:23:21 | Gopal | In reply to @hw6eqvdefv54cbzpcx7ysvt32v4hf37g:privacytools.ioHow so? |
| 02:23:35 | Gopal | In reply to @silentfoof:privacytools.ioSame |
| 02:23:42 | Démon de Laplace | idk if I'll stick with it. But I wanted to try it. |
| 02:24:12 |  silentfoof | The best thing about linux, is that you can do whatever you freaking want. I fully encourage trying EVERYTHING. |
| 02:24:15 | Gopal | It's hard to get out of Arch once you're in. Considering how every package is just one command away. Literally one command. |
| 02:24:20 | Gopal | In reply to @hw6eqvdefv54cbzpcx7ysvt32v4hf37g:privacytools.ioYeah, go for it |
| 02:24:42 | silentfoof | Alpine is also REALLY nice if you don't need like, games, and stuff. |
| 02:24:43 | Gopal | Had a void / musl / bspwm and void / dwm setup back in the day |
| 02:24:51 | silentfoof | Alpine with sway is beautiful. |
| 02:26:10 | Gopal | Agreed |
| 02:26:20 | silentfoof | I'm stuck with Nvidia, so sway is never gonna happen. Drew is... Opinionated.. Hah. But I have it on my intel only laptop and it works beautifully. |
| 02:26:29 | Gopal | Depends how satisfied you are with the trade-off |
| 02:26:50 | Démon de Laplace | So |
| 02:26:50 | Gopal | I've settled on Arch / KDE for good |
| 02:26:53 | Démon de Laplace | https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Python |
| 02:27:02 | Démon de Laplace | Arch has a package for python |
| 02:27:11 | Démon de Laplace | https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=python-dev |
| 02:27:16 | Gopal | In reply to @silentfoof:privacytools.ioSame fate on my desktop |
| 02:27:28 | Démon de Laplace | Debian for example splits that into python and python-dev |
| 02:27:42 | Démon de Laplace | Hence why some people say Arch's packages are bloated, iirc. |
| 02:27:57 | Démon de Laplace | Because they don't split packages for their uses. |
| 02:28:58 | Gopal | I see |
| 02:28:59 | Démon de Laplace | (Just parroting, tbh) |
| 02:29:12 | silentfoof | I'm just using herbstluftwm on my main pc. I dunno what I like about it, but man. I love it. |
| 02:29:18 | Gopal | That's a way of looking at it I guess |
| 02:29:33 | Gopal | In reply to @silentfoof:privacytools.ioHave tried |
