Distro hoppers, what's always on your install list when you've finished setup and logged in for the first time?

posted 8 months ago

I wouldn’t really call myself a distro hopper, but in the last few months I’ve had to do some fresh installs on a couple of machines and VMs for work

If these aren’t included by default, I’ll make sure to get em:

GUI:

Firefox & Chromium
Gimp & Krita
VSCode/VSCodium
Okular
Libre office

CLI*:

git
wget&curl
neovim
zsh/ohmyzsh + plugins
glow
neofetch
figlet/toilet
zellij
python
nodejs/npm/nvm + nodemon globally
ranger/rifle

Also, how do you go about migrating your old config and rc files? Start fresh or just copy em over and make adjustments where necessary?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
