From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

hardware is a nuked MacBook Pro, Intel Core i5-4278U @ 2.60GHz, model A1502 (EMC 2875), Retina Mid-2014 13" with debian 12.5 live xfce installed (I couldn't fully install any of the netinst candidates).

As posted before, I consider this a really slow notebook and to compare and give you an idea, I need benchmarks. Download speed works fine via USB-tethering with an android device but the installation speed is ridiculously slow. System reacts very slow after entering username and password as well.

I'll try gnome and cinnamon later and compare.

What do you mean by nuked?

It might be a reference to not having macos installed.
