Had the opportunity to try out and develop for the hololens 2. I don’t dig it at all. It’s still big, has a tiny field of view, and when I compare it to VR, it’s so much less immersive. Not that it’s not impressive technology - it totally is. The best IMO would probably be a mix of both - high FOV, direct, no-camera passthrough that can be blacked out on demand. Meanwhile, VR is king, although a bit of a niche because of all the setup, required room etc.
While not directly solving the problem, my usual setup involves installing webmin with nginx and managing my domains and nginx from there, changing the auto-generated domain configs to proxy to docker. I have yet to find an easier solution.
My biggest gripe with it is that it sets up a few things I don’t need, like PHP, disk quotas, etc.
I’d like to add Archcraft to the arch-based distro suggestion. It’s arch, but with a selection of sleek DE configs.
