MODERATORS
Mint?
Definitely Mint.
Defimintly.
Ubuntu minus snaps plus a better DE? Mint.
Yes, Mint with Pantheon. As the founding fathers intended.
So unsnapped ElementaryOS?
Yep with a better upgrading path, unless they fixed the whole "nuke your OS to upgrade" thing.
Debian is a decent Ubuntu based OS π«³π€
You just killed 7 senior citizens
Help, I've dist-upgraded and i can't [symbol 'grub_calloc' not found]
Debian is a better version of Ubuntu.
Hannah Montana Linux?
HML was last updated in 2009, I'd recommend Justin Bieber Linux instead.
No need to update when you've reached perfection
Popos or Debian?
Mint
popos and steamos
SteamOS is just Arch but also immutable
Mint, Debian
Been on Ubuntu for years. Only use it for general computer work. Works just fine.
Am I stupid?
Nah. Ubuntu gets hate for some good reasons, but it's still a fine distro, especially if you're happy with it.
Nah, it's pretty great
Not as polished as Pop I think, but good and getting better
Pop feels like a phone OS.
In terms of polish Ubuntu is excellent. Problem is their policies and stupid decisions over the years, resulting in really unnecessary tech problems for anyone who wants more than just install apps via their App Store. Not to mention the inbuilt ads for Amazon, like, 10 years ago⦠or them recently deciding that it would be a good idea to alias some apt commands, so if you're a power user and try to install f.e. Firefox with your CLI it would instead execute the command to install it as snap. Shit like that is just outright disrespectful to the user.

Pop!_OS.
Kubuntu isn't too bad
I moved off of Nobara to Kubuntu LTS. Tried out Mint and Ubuntu before hand and gotta say, I am loving Kubuntu. I am hoping it is the last time I have to distro hop
If you have a moment to indulge a random person...
What made you feel the need to switch off of Nobara? I've been using it and it's been fine, but I'd love to know some things to keep an eye out for
I found it to be unstable. I ran into updates causing major problems way too often. The last update got stuck and I was just so fed up I dumped the OS. Ubuntu has the LTS version that has way less often of updates, and that appealed to me. But I don't like gnome so I went with Kubuntu cause its on KDE

Yes. My gaming rig has been on Pop for years now.
I hate the idea of still being on Pop. But it's so damned pleasant.
Now on the Cosmic alpha.
What I've noticed is that System76 doesn't have as good of QA process compared to something like Linux Mint or Fedora. Not to say that it is bad but that's my personal experience.
I don't disagree with that. They're also a much smaller group so I think it just stands to reason.
But I do appreciate that they're taking chances (probably for the same reason). Cosmic is quite impressive already and a good alternative to Gnome/KDE/Cinnamon; better than the Pop Shell on Gnome.
Edit: a word
Edit: a word
Am I crazy for finding this unnecessary? I've never cared about an edited comment, let alone the reason why a person edited it.
IMO from personal experience I tend to half care.
I personally wouldn't leave in, "Edit: a word," but if I change the substance of a comment in any meaningful way I like to leave an edit to say what changed.
Particularly for when someone already replied to my comment or may already be replying to my comment. I would be afraid of accidentally trying to gaslight someone lol.
This one makes sense actually.
Maybe it is. I always considered it a courtesy since otherwise it can be difficult to see what was edited. It's from my reddit days.
Just to be clear, I'm in no way judging, but just wondering. :)
Yep yep, I didn't take offense. Tbh idk why I still do it. Just habit I guess.
Edit: I made an edit but I won't say what it was. :)
And that's 100% ok.
Ubuntu, but good? Itβs called Debian.
So Kubuntu then?
Ubuntu minus the binary-blobs and corpo-junk = the good distro of Trisquel
