now I have a bit of courage left over to remove the headphone jack from all phones.

you could just block the !pizzacake@piefed.world community, if you haven’t already done so. Don’t think you can do much else on Lemmy. On PieFed, there are at least keyword blocks, but even then that isn’t a perfect solution.

I think (I may be wrong here) that Debian wild be good enough for beginners. Their stable branch is, well… stable, and i didn’t run into that many issues (I think it would only be when you want to run stuff that isn’t either a flatpak or in the repos, like i tried to do with howdy). Testing would also be good ,but expect a few issues.

I think endeavor OS could also do well. in my experience, the install process was easy, kinda like Debian (the first distro I installed). Dare I say it is easier than (or maybe slightly comparable to) Arch with archinstall?

heard that arch was Canadian (originated from)
