This is a personal usage report.
This is my first post here, although I have been regularly posting
on the test listserve for about a month.
Mr. Ed Greshko and others on that list recommended I post my
rants here.
I use Rawhide in the real world on hardware as my only operating
system. My motto is, "Live in Rawhide, Live on the Edge."
For the past month, Xfce has been my only weapon of choice, and
I just last night learned how to install the whisker menu.
I own a one-person business, driving a car about 300 miles per
day in awful congested city traffic delivering documents. (
Until about 6 days ago, as I have been unemployed due to the
hysteria or concern of the COVID-19 paranoia ).
I use my computer only for household things, like surfing the web,
sending email, watching YouTube.
My computer is a ASUS mini-ITX about 5 years old with Intel i5-3470
and 16 GB of DDR3 at around 1,000 MHz. I should have a slightly
better computer in a month or so.
Anyways, I update my Rawhide install everyday. My non-Xfce software
is currently all flatpaks.
I did my install with an iso on the Fedora Nightly Compose Finder page, back
around January 24th, ( I think ). And it has performed well, ever since.
I do have an issue with wi-fi due to my Broadcom on my motherboard. I just
have not had an opportunity to look into it, as I have a nice ethernet connection
at around 100 Mbps.
There was no update today, except to my flatpaks. Normally there is a large update
on almost a weekly basis, but that might be postponed due to the displaced volunteers,
and Fedorans who normally do all that dedicated work.
I live near Arcola, Texas USA. I have 3 years of Linux experience, but only at the novice
level doing household average stuff, like play Gnome games.
Here is a screenshot showing my custom background, the whisker icon, and a terminal
window with some stats:
Thank you, and good day.
