As somebody that uses this filesystem, I disagree.

If you want to use it as a server, Fedora is annoying because the support lifetimes are so short.
If you want the Fedora / Red Hat experience, consider Alma Linux. Skills wise, it is like using Res Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) which is an in-demand skill set.
Reading all the comments (between Kent and Linux), the problem is that the bcachefs dev thinks that his project (the filesystem) is the critically important one and that the Linux kernel needs to bend to his will.
I am a bcachefs user but it is pretty damn obvious to me that the production Linux kernel is more important than an experimental filesystem.
There is no reason that Kent Overstreet needed to do this.
I love bcachefs but I am so angry at him for making this happen.
The only way to fix Xorg is to break org. It requires a redesign.
The Xorg devs chose to do that by starting a separate project. The breakage has been in Wayland, now maturing, while Xorg was left stable. Xlibre wants bring this disruption to the X codebase itself.
The abacus is the only thing real in the picture.
That is 64 bit. Literally any modern distro should run on it.
Debian will not run on Pentium anymore. It is not performance, it is compiler options. You need a i686 (Pentium Pro). This means none of the Debian derivatives will either.
Adelie, Arch32, and T2 all still run on Pentium though I believe.
[edit: sorry, I saw Pentium 75 from the comment above - Celeron M should be fine]
You would be surprised. If you stay text only and use a 32 bit distro, it would run up to date versions of most CLI programs.
Adelie and Arch32 still support Pentium.
Booting to a GUI, there are still a few options. I think Velox would run on that. I bet Xorg with FVWM would too. You are not going to have much left for apps though. However, you could run a couple of terminals.
Adelie Linux (totally modern Linux distro) lists 64 MB as the minimum server memory requirement.
Do you use any of the other XFCE stuff with Niri? Or just the terminal?
MPV is a much lighter video player. Try that.
Punch cards. The “true” PC era.
“Stone” tablets? Luxury. Ours were dried mammoth dung.
Are you running Trinity or KDE?
Not sure why I get so much less unless it is that. Or are you saying you run Trinity 64 bit?
I agree that 32 bit is not often going to be 50% less in practice. Sometimes I think we should be running 64 bit kernels with 32 bit userland.
I found my people.
I have Linux on a 2009 and 2012 MacBook Pro and 2013 and 2017 MacBook Airs.
The 2009 is getting a bit sluggish but for regular stuff, they all work great. We even played a Steam game on the 2012 earlier today (not AAA obviously).
All Chimera Linux.
It is because it is 32 bit. You can run a 32 bit distro on your machine too if you really want.
You can get a full Trinity desktop on Q4OS in 130 MB of RAM (32 bit edition).
.NET runs fast on Linux
The original code remains available under the original.
Any proprietary code would have to be code that was added on top of that.
You always have the ability to keep using the Own Source code. That is a freedom you have.
If you decide that proprietary version is “better” and choose to use that, well that is a freedom you have. But now you have accepted a proprietary license. Your choice.
So, you had to choose between the code that was still Open Source and the code that was now proprietary.
If you stick with the Open Source, what you describe does not happen.
If you moved to the proprietary, well, there you are. You clearly decided that the new features were more important than it being Open Source.
Remember, it is only the new features. All the old code remains as open as it ever was.
Honestly, not even in this case (especially given the history). Kent has a kernel tree people can pull if they need to. If it is an emergency, point people there.
