    I switched from Pop_OS! to KDE Neon because I wanted to try out the latest Plasma features and was tired of GNOME’s bloat and needing an extension/Tweaks for basic functionality.

    Then KDE broke screen sharing, bricked my install once by breaking LUKS disk encryption, and then it booted to a black screen on updating to the latest LTS…

    So now I’m on Mint and all of my servers are on Debian because I want something that just works. Lol. No more distro hopping.

      KDE bricked my install on my main desktop after updating to the latest LTS too. No idea how that happens. I’m on opensuse leap now.

        Yeah I tried Tumbleweed, but I really don’t like RPM-based distros. Mostly because I’ve been a Debian-based boi most of my life.

    Linux is the family, you’re just meeting different people at the different spots of the buffet

    I can’t wait to get my new laptop in November. I’m going to make my old one a Linux-only machine for all non-gaming purposes, and 100% going back to Mint.
