Umm, have you ever installed Arch? It's, like, you don't even get any text editor, no dhcp client, no bootloader... It's almost primordial soup. But you already backtracked on your claim, saying you didn't mean what you meant.
No, OpenBSD doesn't have multithreading, it is not suitable for desktop use.
I mean, google-fonts seems like a pretty default collection these days.
No. Im just pasting whatever chatgpt told me.
No. Thats not true. OpenBSD disables hyperthreading. Not multithreading. And i keep that turned off in bios and i have all my E cores disabled as well.
Just stop pls.
Yeah, that is part of those three lines (add display server). Also a trivial script <https://github.com/alpinelinux/alpine-conf/blob/master/setup-wayland-base.in>
apk add elogind polkit-elogind "$@"
It has multi-threading (but internally it is a little basic)
Yeah, but there are always people that will complain that they need "easy way to install desktop". Look at the Arch linux for example. Its user base has grown significantly since they included installer. Then you have people that used that installer and they complain because its tui based and not calamares based. And then you have so called "Arch linux elitists" that complain about installer being there in a first place. Its same here. People are crying because some fonts have not been included in base installation so they had to look at "ugly fonts" because of their own incompetence. And to top it all off, you have people like me complaining about all of them all together. You just cant please everyone.
Indeed. If only there were multiple operating systems available for people to choose from that would suit their abilities. Oh wait....
Linux distros are going into that direction and they are almost there. For example, Installing Linux Mint is easier than installing Windows 11 which is insane.
Its all about ego stroking. And its not happening in linux world only. Just look at this thread. People are using FreeBSD as a desktop operating system with no proper fonts installed. And then, they have audacity to give suggestions or demands on what should be included in the base install because they missed it. If it wasnt for this thread that they accidently stumbled on, they would still be running FreeBSD with no fonts installed. Like...what are we doing here guys?
Is there a list somewhere of perhaps "minimum set of proper fonts to correctly render on 90% of the internet"?
No.
Your set is similar to mine. I dont have terminus, i use hack and meslo instead.
I pretty much replicate my arch linux font setup from 16 years ago. However, back then, having just fonts installed was not enough. You had to install infinality font configuration and force full hinting to make them show properly. Today its much easier. You just install fonts, and thats it.
