I’ve dabbled with Linux over the years, first with Ubuntu in the early 2010s, then Elementary OS when that dropped, and a few years ago I really enjoyed how customizable the gui was with Xubuntu. I was able to make it look just like WIndows 2000 which was really cool.
Which current distro has the best GUI, in your opinion? I find modern Ubuntu to feel a little basic and cheap. I guess I don’t really like modern Gnome. I’m currently using Windows 10 LTSC which is probably the best possible version of Windows, but I’d jump to linux if I could find a distro with a gui that feels at least as polished and feature rich as Windows 10 LTSC.
I was a major opensuse tumbleweed fan to start, but this period has been fading for me as well. I can’t really put my finger on it, but several prominent members of the community just seem to always rub me the wrong way. It’s kind of like being told to go do it yourself if you want to see something done, but then being told you did the thing you wanted done wrong or you’re using OpenSUSE incorrectly if you feel the urge to do the things you tried to do. I’ve also noted the hostility to KDE in various exchanges as well, which is very weird since a lot of KDE development is apparently done on OpenSUSE.
I have a major server running MicroOS that I’m looking to ditch and do a re-install on, but “stable, rolling” is a hard niche to fill when you might be looking for some extra kernel features that can’t/don’t ship directly in the Linux kernel. I’m stuck for now, but keen on the lookout for a decent replacement that fills the same niche as MicroOS for a server.
