Hopefully this kind of post isn’t too tired, but I figure it’s my turn:
Finally decided to, after absolutely refusing to upgrade to 11, make the jump from Win10 to Linux! Been hopping around distros a bit and landed on EndeavourOS last night and I’m really enjoying it so far.
It’s definitely tinkery and took me like 2 hours just to get my push to talk working in Discord (mostly due to my own lack of knowledge), but I love the level of control of everything you have (was on Pop!_OS before 🤮, edit: no hate, just wasn’t for me!)
There’s definitely never been a better time to switch and I’m very excited for when I inevitably brick my shit and come back here for help, so thanks in advance everyone! :)
The only thing I don’t like about it is being behind on gnome since their DE is a forked older version of gnome afaik. Especially for recent gnome extensions, it’s not always the most amenable. But mostly even on that front it’s workable
Cosmic DE is about to exit alpha. It is a modern experience and removes all that aierd gnome jankiness
Yeah, I’m looking forward to it. I hope it lives up to the hype. I like gnome but at the same time even just the need for the extensions is annoying. Because you’re right, they can be janky really easily depending on factors.
