another thing you could do with the new installer is let someone choose the
software they want to start with, I know not many people are gonna use both
clause mail and thunderbird at the same time, for instance they type the name
of the package, and if its available, it gets installed, the core accessibility
packages will get installed, but anything else people can choose what they
want, xfce is quite accessible and can be extended with the wisker menu, which
looks like an old style windows start menu, unity is outdated and has never
been packaged for slackware, but it is accessible, you could have minimal mate
and standar mate, minimal mate gives you the core mate packages but not a lot
of the mate apps, and standard mate is, well a standard mate desktop
configuration followed by the brisk menu

I have read a lots of threads about issues with btrfs but they generally do
not
give enough information to know the context, what went wrong exacty and why.
Meanwhile for openSUSE this is the default since many years. I am pretty
confident that if carefully configured it can be as safe as ext4. I say this
after a lot of reading including information provided in the official wiki:
https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page
As an aside there are many kinds of linux vets, the kind who use Linux since
20
years or more and are against any new thing being not the less common, like:
"I have always done things like that, used this software, why change and take
any risk?"
I hope not to fall into this category, despite having using personal computers
since more than forty years...
Cheers,
Diider
