I’m using Arch because you start with nothing and you can make any system you want. I have disk encryption, btrfs as a filesystem, secure boot with my own custom keys, I’m running self-build kernel, I’m using apparmor and I can use any program from AUR, etc. Thats my personality. Things that you can’t see but are important to me.
On other distros some of these things would be very hard to do. Especially without Arch Wiki.
Yes but you have to do that for each service if I understand correctly.
I switched from Docker to Podman, because Podman is more secure (if rootless) but it was just hard to autostart containars. You have to start one by one because they don’t have a central service like docker. And watchtower and nextcloud AIO don’t work on Podman. So I switched back to docker.
I’m running a Raspberry Pi 4 with 4gb of ram and 32gb of storage:
All that and load average is 0.05%, ram usage is at 450MB and disk usage at 6.4GB.
Arch Linux with 2 kernels ;)
Veloren!
Then atleast fake it until you make it!
Yep, he announced his AI.
No problem ;)
That was really hard to do. I created a note for myself and I will also publish it on my website. You can also decrypt the sd using fido2 hardware key (I have a nitrokey). If you don’t need that just skip steps that are for fido2.
The note:
Download the image.
Format SD card to new DOS table:
As root:
xz -d 2023-12-11-raspios-bookworm-arm64-lite.img.xz
losetup -fP 2023-12-11-raspios-bookworm-arm64-lite.img

In chroot:
apt update && apt full-upgrade -y && apt autoremove -y && apt install cryptsetup-initramfs fido2-tools jq debhelper git vim -y
git clone https://github.com/bertogg/fido2luks && cd fido2luks
fakeroot debian/rules binary && sudo apt install ../fido2luks*.deb
cd .. && rm -rf fido2luks*
Edit /etc/crypttab:

Edit /etc/fstab:
/dev/mmcblk0p1 /boot/firmware vfat defaults 0 2
/dev/mapper/root / ext4 defaults,noatime 0 1
Change root to /dev/mapper/root and add cryptdevice=/dev/mmcblk0p2:root to /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt.

update-initramfs -u
Exit chroot and finish!
umount -R /mnt
On my main profile on GrapheneOS there are 7 closed source apps and 1 self build technically closed source (for now) all out of total 71 apps.
7 out of 705 installed packages are non-free packages on my RPi server.
On my Raspberry Pi 4 4gb with encrypted sd is:
Pi is overkill for this kind of job. Load average is only 0.7% and ram usage is only 400M

There are way more Chineese than Americans.
How do you know? They never said that moose had survived?
And they also have to let people use a VPN. And make UI load faster, it’s way too bloated.
Or an average Reddit post.
