Friendly reminder to clean-install your operating system at least once a year to get rid of any cruft and garbage that has built up with regular use!
GNU/Linux users aren't immune to OS rot, enough in-place version upgrades on non-rolling release distros will eventually break things!

Hi Akarin
I actually just wiped and reinstalled. It'd only been a few years but I wanted to try a new distro.

cute thread ben

I w-will do that right away.
I like to reset my phone and tablet every 6 months and my PC yearly. It's time
I want to do a clean install but my mom has some files on her account and I don't want to delete them. HELP?
don't mess with your mummies computer
It's actually my computer but I made a guest account for her when she visited me last month and she has some files on there.
20 years in the future, your mom will still reference this one time you used her computer to do literally anything and complain how you broke the computer.
Just backup the files retard.
Thanks, but no thanks, NixOS is self cleaning. OS-Rot isn't a problem with immutable systems ^w^.
>GNU/Linux users aren't immune to OS rot
is this true? how can linux even compete then?
I never install anything on my computer why'd I need to re-install windows?
>GNU/Linux users aren't immune to OS rot
it is
An atomic system image is immutable. Therefore, my system does not suffer from OS rot.
the best part is that it's fun to reinstall an os aswell
I use mirror zfs as my root drive with ECC ram.
I don't get bit rot sweetie.
I use Arch so I don't ever have to clean install.
>bit rot = os rot
OS rot isn't a real term.
Your OS sucks at cleaning up caches and uninstalling stuff that leaves remnents behind.
COPEEEE
I feel this
this has happened to me
agreed, cute anime girl!
she's my wife, thankyou i tell her everyday
>I think everyone else is capable as me.
I use to think that for the most part before using Jow Forums. Now I understand most of you are unable to maintain a installation for whatever reason. Its just weird because I don't consider myself knowledgeable at all.
I have a Fedora 30 install that has been upgraded since Fedora 10. Only retards wipe their OS because a config file is broken. Find it and fix it like a man.

I hate when programs shit all over my system, especially directly in my $HOME, instead of their designated containment ~/.config space.
So I completely format my drive from time to time and reinstall arch with custom script that I made. Takes only about 30 minutes to start fresh and configure everything.
