Stable? Good? Bad? Annoying? Is it beginner friendly? Should I try KDE or Gnome?
I’ve only used Mint and SteamOS and from what I understand KDE should be similar to SteamOS Desktop mode because that is KDE based, right?
I don’t plan to distro hop any time soon, but I’m just curious if I ever get a new laptop I might try it to take advantage of it supposedly being descent at performance optimisation
I’m still waiting on a distro to use xonsh as the login shell.
(Bit of a joke, but xonsh is actually really fun to use if you like Python and Bash. Honestly great as a glue shell if you use a lot of Python scripts. Plus the webui for config is actually pretty slick.)
All these words are scaring me I have next to no programming knowledge
I’d stich with your distro’s shell then lol. Xonsh is really just a power user shell if you are writing a lot of Python scripts that you call from the command line.
If your default shell is fish, then just take note and remember that some bash stuff doesn’t work the same in fish so copy/pasting commands online (from a place other than your distro docs/forums) might take some finagling.

Get it?
I…

Webui

I mean, you can also just edit the configs. The webui is just a basic Python webserver that let’s you preview the changes without committing them.
You have my attention
Download it and play around with it as a secondary shell. I believe it’s technically posix compliant? Or at least partially compliant.
I wouldn’t use it as a login, but kinda like how you’d use nu if you’re dealing with a bunch of structured data.
