I wanted to interject about how “ecosystem” is a word only used for locked-in stuff like Apple and Google, but y’know what?
THIS is a proper ecosystem. It is actually organic, made of independent moving parts, unlike the clockwork made by big tech, internal to each and to a large extent indivisible.
SteamOS was my tutorial and today I run Arch on my main system. But I like learning and I like the fact that I can build my own system and choose my own components. I understand that Arch is not for everyone but for me it’s perfect.
GNOME is horrible. Looks pretty, but it’s opinionated approach means that nothing works as expected and you have to relearn how to use a stupid window manager.
The one you fucking feel like using. God, stop trying to make tribes mandatory.
Never heard of it. What packaging system does Tribes use?
Well, it’s built to use Ooga, but it’s also set up to be able to handle Booga as well. It depends on the driver set you need to load Fire and Club.
I prefer Ook! Ook! over Ooga.
The wrong one, obviously!
I feel like there’s a lemmings reference to be made here but I’m tired. Internet, do your thing.
SHAZBOT!
I’m tempted to commit to pretending that “Tribes” is a Linux distro that we’re all worried will gain too much popularity and hurt the ecosystem…

*Except for beginners
Try a beginner distro, and when you’re done with the tutorial, go ahead and install your arches or nixes, IDC

Steamos is a great introduction… If you touch desktop mode of course.
Personally I recommend Linux mint, or even KUbuntu or Cinnamon Ubuntu (gnome is not meant for windows refugees so better not show it yet)
Also, fuck GNOME. When I tried Ubuntu in 2009 it was GNOME that made me hate Linux until I learned that KDE Plasma was a thing.

Ooga Booga, caveman like Arch, caveman spread Arch!
Edit: i never read the other comments and someone already sorta used this joke… shit.
