  • Look for the option when installing that is along the lines of “wipe entire drive.”

    If you want Debian, check out Vanilla OS. They reached a milestone not too long ago, and it’s a bulletproof distro. It containerizes most programs, it’s immutable, and has atomic updates.

    Someone already mentioned, turn off secure boot in your BIOS/uefi settings.





  • Not sure if it’s exactly what you’re after, but Unifi gateways can install NextDNS with a script provided by NextDNS. It’s all the same lists as Pi-Hole, and possibly more intelligent ones, too. Bonus points are it makes every device in your home use encrypted DNS, as well!

    I’m using it on a Dream Machine Pro, and the new Cloud Gateway Ultra.


  • If you decide yes, I highly recommend Fedora Silverblue, or any of the distros based on silverblue/ublue. I myself love Bazzite for gaming.

    Those are atomic and immutable, meaning you cannot easily break core files, and every single thing can be updated in the app store. It’s the windows equivalent of not being able to modify/delete C:\Windows; and getting firmware, drivers, applications, and Windows updates all in one click using the Microsoft Store.






  • I haven’t left because W11 IoT LTSC exists. No AI, no store, options to disable all the telemetry, no bloat. It’s what a Windows system should be and is pleasant to use. Also Tidal music doesn’t have a viable Linux option 😢. Oh and Quest 2 PCVR streaming.

    I also have a Bazzite install I hop on pretty frequently, and it’s getting rather close to me switching which one is my daily driver OS. And leaving a Windows Install for Battlefield. Valorant, and VR.

    Edit: Also, it would be a huge shame for someone to waste their time looking for the IoT LTSC .iso on a website massgravedotdev.
