They say debian is free and has its promise, but Arch has like 2-4 maintainers?

    Stremio was the big one, but maybe I just didn’t try hard enough.

    Getting Wine/Bottles working with a niche work remote desktop streaming app was a huge pain, too, while in CachyOS it’s 1-click to get it all set up from the Hello app.

    On my CachyOS desktop, I use Docker images for a couple things: my mesh wifi network controller server (Omada) and for ripping Kindle books to .epub with a specific Windows setup that still works (I need to read with TTS and Kindle broke native Android TTS when they implemented their own shitty TTS option, so I .epub everything.)

    I don’t think I use any other containerized apps, aside from my work Windows VM (which is only required for SharePoint integration in Explorer.)

      Stremio has a native Debian package right on it’s download page.

      And as to all the other stuff, that is super specific and is hardly a reason to not recommend debian to a random person.
