ASUS RT-AX53U

Good that I flashed OpenWrt on my ASUS router. Couldn’t be more happier.

I stopped reading after this line.

Raspberry Pi won’t do unfortunately, unless you run up to 4 lightweight containers.

Does the author know how much compute power a Raspberry Pi 5 has? If the software that just hosts personal data can’t run in Raspberry Pi 5, that should be a terrible software. For most people and their families, a RPi5 is enough to host anything that they would ever need.

Iced is a Rust GUI toolkit which is high level than any existing toolkits including Qt, GTK etc. System76’s COSMIC desktop is developed using Iced. I believe Iced will replace Qt and GTK in Linux space in coming years.

Rust is not only for low level programs, but it’s a general purpose high level language for any kind of applications. If the OP wants to go high level than Rust, there’s always Haskell which is an older cousin of Rust but with more functional and higher level abstractions.

Not OP, but my reasons for choosing Fedora is, it just works. I use the Atomic version of it which is an image based operating system. Installing packages or updates does not leave the system unstable. I can simply rollback to previous version. Also Fedora pushes entire Linux community forward by adopting potential technologies like Flatpak, PipeWire, Wayland etc earlier compared to other distros.

(I also run NixOS which I believe has more potential and solves many problems than Fedora).

Having said that there are two downsides to Fedora.

• Fedora is closely associated with Red Hat. I wish it is purely community driven.
• Fedora does not offer LTS kernels (Maybe it would threaten Red Hat, if Fedora is too stable).

Same here. I can’t stand the lack of cleanliness in UI. In Plasma, within 5 mins of usage, I can already notice imperfections everywhere.

Exactly. While I love Plasma for what it is, I also don’t love certain things like lack of polish, stability etc. Again no offense. Fedora Workstation aims to be a stable OS with sensible defaults for wider audience including home users, disabled people and developers who want to get things done rather than tweaking their OS. GNOME may not have great customizability as Plasma but it is stable and well polished for average user.

I use an entry level router ASUS RT-AX53U with OpenWrt. WiFi 6, IPv6, Guest VLAN, DNSCrypt (DoH), Adblock, Firewall are few things I have configured with OpenWrt.

Even if you don’t buy ASUS, make sure your router is supported by OpenWrt. It’s a Linux distribution that runs on routers and PCs to configure home networking.

Yes. It saved me from crappy firmware on my expensive router. It’s a must if you care about security of your home network and devices.

I am using GNOME with Fedora and NixOS on multiple machines. I sincerely thank the hard work of maintainers and contributors.
