And even though this encourages people to try things out themselves +and learn more about how Linux works, it can be a bit scary for newcomers. + +Now, I've been using this distro for about two weeks on my old MacBook, and I +have to say that I'm impressed. + +## Installation +EndeavourOS uses the Calamares installer, so the install is about as +straightforward as it gets. I've come to use EndeavourOS as my "easy install" +for Arch, because it just feels like regular Arch. You can download their ISO +[here](https://endeavouros.com/latest-release/). They also have an +[ARM version](https://arm.endeavouros.com/), which I might try later on my +Raspberry Pi. + +For my install, I choose the i3wm version, as I prefer tiling window managers. +I also discovered that a desktop environment (Plasma in my case) is just too +much for my old MacBook to handle, so i3wm was not a difficult choice. The Only +thing I changed about the initial config was tweak the key bindings a bit to +use the Vim bindings instead of the i3 ones. + +## First Impressions +When we boot into our fresh installation, we're greeted with a simple, yet +elegant LightDM login screen. Out of the box, the i3 config is quite welcoming +and polished, albeit a tad crowded for my tastes, but this can be easily solved +by editing the config files. + +By default, a welcome screen pops up whenever we boot the computer, and a +terminal is launched. I personally find this decision quite odd, but to each +their own. And of course we can just turn this off by changing one line in the +config. + +This brings us to how closely this distro resembles pure Arch. No +fancy GUIs to configure everything, just a terminal and a text editor is needed +to configure it for your own needs. + +EndeavourOS is very lightweight, barely consuming 300MB of ram on startup. This +result may vary if you've chosen another desktop environment/window manager. +This is one of the reasons I chose EndeavourOS: I needed sometimes light, +something that my 7-year-old MacBook could run without issues. I previously ran +PopOS! on it, and while this is a great distro, it was too heavy for this old +thing. diff --git a/content/posts/Transmission Server.md b/content/posts/Transmission Server.md index 3612821..ff9c863 100644 --- a/content/posts/Transmission Server.md +++ b/content/posts/Transmission Server.md @@ -1,8 +1,8 @@ --- +draft: true title: "Transmission On Docker" date: 2020-11-26T15:20:30+01:00 tags: ["Docker"] -draft: true --- Transmission is a widely used torrenting client for Linux.
