"...and nobody would ever use the microsoft sanctioned version anymore." Except they could just merge the fixes into the "sanctioned version", and Windows would still be Windows, only much better.

"We have forks... There are a ton of Firefox forks..." And there is nothing good about it. Tons of forks based on other forks based on outdated software and maintained by one guy or a small group of volunteers in their free time is not a good option for web surfing. Everyone can clone someone's else repo, but understanding the complicated codebase, maintaining it and developing important security patches and features is a different story.
9:40 Hey DT. On the topic of encrypting hard drives, I would like to comment a few things. First though a disclaimer, that I am from Germany, so I am writing this from the perspective from German law (though it should also be applicable to US law). In 2016 the govt raided my home because they suspected I had software they deemed illegal on my computer (I was in high school at the time and very into computer security research). They had a search warrant & took pretty much every hard drive they could find (they wanted to take the whole PC but I could convince them not to, seeing as I had my finals coming up). Trying to keep a long story short, they didn't find anything worth prosecuting (big surprise), but they ended up keeping my drives for OVER A YEAR. Over a year without my original data hurt a lot, especially since I had a lot of files that were too big to feasibly sync over the cloud. My lawyer at the time informed me that had I encrypted my drives, I likely would've gotten them back much sooner, since in Germany you cannot be compelled to provide a password (same as US 5th amendment against self-incrimination), so if they see an encrypted drive, they will try to brute-force the password for a little bit, and then give up. But since my drives were unencrypted, they took their sweet time going through everything (which was A LOT of data). And of course then there is always the possibility of them finding something benign, but which technically is still against the law, as they did in my case with "copyrighted" material, insisting to format one of my drives before handing it back to me. It had nothing important on it, but was annoying nonetheless. Moral of the story: Encrypt your drives. As I understand it, even in the US police are not always respecting 4th amendment rights. So you need to make sure they cannot be violated on a technological level.
"would you use windows if it were free software?" No, it sucks too much, I already have to suffer it at work every day. However, I would have a different opinion on it. Also, it would probably mean that Wine would use the real libraries instead of being a clean-room implementation as it is today, so it would be much more practical to use Windows apps on Linux. The world would be a better place.
Use Proton. Valve has been singlehandedly fixing EVERYTHING in your hobbyist OS. Valve is made of ex microsoft employees, people who know how to make an OS reliable. Without closed source software, open source would be dead.
Funnily you disabling your Gemini capsule is a pretty strong argument against Gemini. If you have a job and a life and maintaining a site is already a lot of work, leaving you no space to also maintain a gem capsule, it's the same for anyone anywhere. Which is why Gemini will only exist as a fleeting hobby before fading further into the obscurity that it already finds itself in.
Gemini is kind of like the old AM radio. Also emailing is falling by the wayside in favor of cell phone messaging. The only thing for certain is change. My wife likes reading real books, the ones with paper pages, which do not need a battery device plus circuits to read. :)
DT, remind your audience to donate to, at least, their favorite or most frequently used, open source project. These developers have all kinds of expenses related to what they do, just like the rest of us. I think sometimes they "sellout" because they actually need the money.
If Firefox dies, Librewolf is not going to stick around either. It's a hacked together project that applies some basic patches to whatever the latest Firefox release is. It takes a lot of effort to keep a browser up to date with current web standards. That's the reason there are no huge engines competing with Google. Browsers need to constantly be updated for security as well. It requires a completely different and expansive skill set than basically applying a user.js file. Same reason why Tor Browser and Icecat are dead in the water if Firefox dies as well. All firefox based browsers will go the Palemoon and Waterfox route. We can kid ourselves saying those are viable projects but they are not.
Thanks for always going to work for us. You've changed everything for me. Also. Could you touch on open-hardware? We all know open source software doesn't even matter if there's subversive embedded parallel os that we could never detect as users.
Good question on Open Hardware. AMD processors both CPU and GPU graphic cards are very good at running open source software Linux and FreeBSD. Nvidia GPU's will require to run at max performance their own priority device drivers sometimes a pain to install. I have built eight workstations for myself in the last five years. And one eight drive server for storage. A mix of AMD and Intel systems, all run great but have found AMD works best with opensource!
Dude Artix literally has on their websites "You should use these [weekly builds], unless you encounter problems", the problem you had was no problem at all, you just found a reason complain. There is no need for them to test an ISO if the system they currently have is working just fine. If automatically pushing out updates is so bad why do you use rolling release distros? Don't you know that the updates are not tested?
Yes, no real difference between using a rolling release installer that installs itself and a rolling release distro, which updates itself the exact same way.
Hey, DT. It sure would be a blessing if you could make a video about living inside of the terminal as far as utility, if that makes sense, maybe networking type stuff. A part of me really wants to learn deeper into what I can do in terminal and in what ways I could modify a terminal-only pc, vm, pi. For example, is it possible to modify my terminal's appearance and whatnot if it's just terminal Linux and didn't have a GUI like Raspberry Pi OS Lite. There's different terminal emulators on desktop linux, but I'm looking for a different variety for non-GUI linux.
Try Arch Linux or you can try almost any linux like Ubuntu or Pop_OS! without GUI by uninstalling their desktop environments (like what Linus Tech Tips did)
Regarding the title (haven't watched the video yet), I still wouldn't use Windows even if it was open source. Because it would still be windows. It would still suck as much as it does now...
alias c='clear' Otherwise the clear command not always do the same thing. I use only live operating system so I have occasion to experience this. In first case the command really clear, so all text will be deleted from the terminal. This is for me the normal mode, since I suppose that also the RAM will be emptied. In second case the clear command only moves the sceen with text up, so apparenty the screen is clear but you can scroll for the previous text. This mode of operation is very annoying for me but I cannot figure out which setting controls this behaviour.

And the zombie people in life spend they're lives camping out on a computer.

Me personally, I would not rule out any browser because of political leanings.... My main motivation is video quality.... If the quality is good, if it will save me eye-strain, then that's a huge plus in my book.
If Linux became proprietary somehow, in a hypothetical situation that it somehow became proprietary and there were no forks, and Windows suddenly became Open Source, I'd switch to a more terminal focused lightweight Windows distro. But the thing is that due to licenses and forks, Linux cannot become proprietary and Windows will probably never be Free and Open Source. Even if it was, I like and am used to how Linux works, as long as Linux stays Free and Open, I will stick with it.
Windows itself might not ever get open source, but there's the very low chance that ReactOS takes off and actually provides a drop-in replacement, at least for Windows 95 to Windows 7. And given how much Microsoft has fumbled with idiotic searches, imposed telemetry, and other nonsense, they wouldn't even be that behind Windows 11 or whatever the next version after 11 will be named.
Hey DT, why do you always label Windows as the most insecure OS bloated with spywares, keyloggers, etc, when Android, a Linux distro (non GNU?), is same if not more insecure and bloated than Windows?
@@killertigergaming6762 Except it is. Android is based off of Linux kernel and does most of the tasks you’d expect a typical desktop distribution to do. Android without the google services is utter rubbish. No security updates, little to no app support, and no “special” features.

Android 13 is, in fact, rumoured to support kvm. Compare that to something like Chrome OS which is infinitely more limited than Android, but is still considered a Linux distro. Don’t see a point why Android can’t be categorised in the same category.
Okay, I need to ask which do you prefer between Artix and Arco. I'm currently using Artix and occasionally the updates break the VM, do you have the same issue with Arco?

Not much to do with the software, but rather the company itself. Mozilla has made some questionable decisions, such as being paid by google to have it be the default engine. Theyve also tried to censor people with different political opinions
Audacity is probably fine, what makes it "spyware" is some telemetry to collect user data. Still kinda trashy, but many other OSS do that, GNOME and KDE for instance, although it is off by default, which is not the case in Audacity. Still, most distros are providing their audacity packages with this telemetry removed, so it's still safe to use Audacity.
@@babyboomertwerkteam5662 uh it's not propaganda that anything Chinese is untrustworthy, that's just an objective fact. Besides, just because someone mentioned "Russian" doesn't mean they were suggesting they were automatically untrustworthy, you're putting words under other people's fingertips.
I used to make fun of linux when I started watching the videos, because I need to work on linux occasionaly. Now I use Linux 100% of the time, I guess I am not laughing anymore.
Hey, DT. You seem to reference a lot of very specific comments, so it seems like you read all the comments so I just wanted to drop by and tell you that I, and many others, really appreciate what you're doing. Keep up the great work! :)
To uninstall, get a list of installed packages before you install DTOS. Then you after installation you can take a new list. They you know the difference, and can uninstall all new packages that are in the second list but not in the first.
Hey DT! I've started using Manjaro I3 after your recommendation of it as a entry point to tiling window managers. Really like it and I'm working on my configs. How would you recommend me saving my configs for future use? On git? I know should know how to make backups but I'm not very organized 😬
Hey, DT, did you know instead of using the clear command, you could clear a terminal screen by typing echo 'v[2J' ? Just imagine the comments you would get on that technique. :-)
Hey dt, I am considering migrating to wayland and I was wondering if you were interested in making a wayland oriented review on some minimal window manager?
Hey DT, did you know you can type clear into the terminal instead of pressing ctrl + L ?
