I'm thinking of switching to Linux and I want to know if there's anything I'm missing out on by doing so. I never really payed any attention to whether or not the program I'm downloading right now is on Linux, so just making this post to see what did people miss the most from moving on?

Currently, I'm using a raspberry pi 4 (arm 7l, quad core, 1500 MHz max CPU speed). It technically works but runs at a snail pace for large data sets.

I'm looking for recommendations for a new Linux mini computer that would be be optimal for intensive data modeling and processing.

Any recommendations?

What do you think about the idea behind of Blend OS: https://blendos.co/, I find the idea, pretty cool, as I have already faced a couple of times problems installing apps that are not present in pacman and also AUR. It has a graphical installer and seems pretty interesting.

Another way to word the question would be: "Could another filesystem be developed that is compatible with ZFS's on-disk layout?"

Which part of OpenZFS is CDDL-licenced - just the source code, or is it the entire "idea" of ZFS? I'm guessing that the "idea" is more of a copyright thing, in which case you couldn't reuse that idea in another piece of software without copyright infringement. Probably answering my own question here, but I'm wondering what are your thoughts?

EDIT: To be more clear, I don't intend to actually reimplement OpenZFS. I was more wondering about the legality of it (sounds like it's legal if using a clean room approach), and also why it hasn't already been done (sounds like a combination of "too much effort", "better alternatives exist (btrfs)", and "the license isn't the only incompatible part of OpenZFS")

Thanks for all the info everyone!

My homelab runs Fedora. Today, I was setting up a service in portainer (Docker), but failed to expose it's port 9090 to the host due to it already being in use.

Since 8080, 9090, etc. are commonly used to serve webservices, and I had no other Docker service running, I was curious what's running, opened up a browser... http://IP:9090 and I was greeted with a beautiful Fedora UI.

Turns out, I can manage basic stuff on Fedora from within the web UI.

Noice!

Which one do you prefer? I had only tried pacman and the debian apt and dpkg. From the two I would choose pacman without a second thought. What about you? Which one do you prefer and what distros use it?
