Both are bloated, but I’ll take flatpaks, as snaps have given me a lot of problems on multiple machines. I now just remove it entirely.

I believe this has easily swappable battery packs. That feature alone makes so much sense it could give them an edge.

I installed mint on my second PC, and it’s great. I feel like migrating my main, but I’m not sure it would go smoothly. I’ve had a lot of issues with my four months old Ubuntu install, lately the keyboard is nonfunctional at the login screen about half the time. Snaps are another reason making me want to leave it behind.

Looks like a tug or two is in use…maybe that should be required from now on for areas where a screw up can take out major infrastructure?

It’s because out of the box there’s often issues. For example, my setup with a 3080 booted to a black screen at login. Only futzing in the command prompt via grub let me install the correct driver, and it’s been fine ever since then.

Dual boot is the gateway I stepped through many years ago. It’s been months now since I chose team MS. I do lot of dev, gaming, and media work, and it’s all faster on the linux side. With the recent forced data mining “feature” update, I really doubt I’ll keep it around for my next upgrade.
So I’m just offering dual boot may be a good scenario. And also, popping in another drive is better than messing with your windows drive.

Yes, the confusion that results when things don’t work because of isolation.

They “can’t even do tables”!!!

Same as you, in IT forever, …I switched, and I’m never going back. It’s fast, and it’s brought the joy back for me. Nvidia needs to do better, but that was the only difficulty I had.
