For desktop usage I must confess that, though I may wander, I always seem to end up back at either Fedora or Ubuntu
Haven’t had issues myself. Multi-monitor and high refresh rate; Nvidia and AMD.I always had issues with video drivers on Linux actually, incredibly bad tearing and low refresh rates. Haven't checked if that's resolved?
To be fair it was quite a while ago I was.having issues. I'd like to think it's come a way since then.Haven’t had issues myself. Multi-monitor and high refresh rate; Nvidia and AMD.
Interestingly I had better FPS in Minecraft Java in Ubuntu than I did in Windows! Vanilla and modded.Same here. Not had any video issues and game performance etc. is very similar to Windows for me.
I'm an AMD user though and Nvidia drivers tend to take slightly more effort on linux from my experience.
A set of merge requests were opened that would effectively drop X.Org (X11) session support for the GNOME desktop and once that code is removed making it a Wayland-only desktop environment.
I often found Snaps to be pretty poor in performance on Ubuntu beforeNever going back to *buntu cos of their insistence on Snap.
If I'm going to use anything like that I'd prefer to get apps using AppImage.I often found Snaps to be pretty poor in performance on Ubuntu before
I remember using the JetBrains suite on Ubuntu and the Snaps had an _incredibly_ long boot time.If I'm going to use anything like that I'd prefer to get apps using AppImage.
I don't disagree but for people new to Linux it's ideal IMO, out of all the Distro's there's probably more guides/info out there on how to do X on *buntu than most (any?) other distro.Never going back to *buntu cos of their insistence on Snap.
You can love Linux, and still despise Snap. Same with SystemD. Neither is Linux, they're just ****** bolt-ons on top that you can choose whether to use or not.I remember using the JetBrains suite on Ubuntu and the Snaps had an _incredibly_ long boot time.
I want to love Linux...
That's a double edged sword, though. The more Ubuntu becomes a de facto standard, the more they get away with stupid crap like this, because so many people are locked into using it (I use the term lightly) and will have to put up with it. It's the same with Chrome being so dominant in the browser space, and Google pushing through (or outright making up) arbitrary web standards other browsers don't use, ultimately fracturing the Web.I don't disagree but for people new to Linux it's ideal IMO, out of all the Distro's there's probably more guides/info out there on how to do X on *buntu than most (any?) other distro.

was the go-to when we didn't know how to make stuff work. Every big distro (Arch, Debian, Gentoo, Fedora, openSUSE et al.) has a comprehensive wiki, forums, chats and subreddits etc available. When you take the time to learn how the actual operating system works (Linux, *BSD, whatever) rather than 'how to copy and paste these lines into $distro to make stuff work', then it doesn't matter whether you end up in front of Debian, RHEL, Arch, Alpine or something else - it's all the same underneath and you know what to do, or at least where to start looking. IMHO that's the way it *should* be - making it too easy only leads to frustration and disappointment further down the line.
