Ubuntu server is old as dirt and stable af. I use that, and run CasaOS as a beginner-friendly GUI interface. There is lots of trial and error, learning and some frustration, but it’s so rewarding! The Arr apps, jelly seer and qbittorret and jellyfin are all nearly out of the box ready with casaos app store. It’s a great place to start.

I mean, those are nice addons, but the people that ive handed vanilla gnome to whove never used linux before didn’t come screaming to me “how fo i dash to dock?!?!”

Like if thats the workflow you want, you just search extensions and customize… but none of these are required to just like sit down and do basic stuff.

Now KDE on the other hand… Just trying to find out why bluetooth or clock or volume or whatever quick access isnt where i expect on the kde toolbar. or figure out that i right click the correct “separator” to go into a separate like “widget” menu THAT IS TOTALLY SEPARATE FROM THE BASIC SETTINGS APP, or whatever to set those up is just… bizzare.

Glad it works for ya. I know that some bugs seem to be distro-dependent, so i recognize its more stable on some… for me? Nightmare.

“Autohide” n dodge window feature of taskbar broken for several different apps, but not all. Sometimes displaces the border of the windows offscreen trying to hide

Start menu freezes regularly

Dolphin freezes n hangs a lot in general. God it took me all of 3 secs to say " I NEEd to disable that stupid bouncing “LOADING” animation ASAFP"

Sections of taskbar dead/unclickable suddenly… aka bluetooth quick acess or volume controll

Worst is a giant mesh of graphical glitching and artifacts upon waking from sleep, have to close windows, sometimes restart. Seems its a known issue w video caching for nvidia gpus (fucking nvidia, of course)

… Not a complete list. Anyway, I have GNOME installed on exactly the same pc, same distro, none of this bug shit happens.

Kde is so ugly and buggy, requiring tons of setup n knowhow to fix. GNOME feels limiting and oversimplified, but honestly 9 out of 10 times its fine… even if its setting menu infuriates on the regular.

Im old and i dont having 100 hrs to rice shit anymore

Yes. Cast iron is best. It and high carbon steel are the only real “non stick” because thyre the only ones you can season. Dont use “nonstick” pans they are just pollutants and give you cancer. Seasoning cast iron is easy (really… Do less! Stop reaming it and scrubbing it to death… just get it really hot and wipe it). Cast iron last forever… these other things become garbage in 1-5 yrs

Y know this comment section-and every other i see when this vid comes up- is a perfect illustration of why the left always loses. We would rather criticize everything/anything than DO anything. Who fucking CARES if they care, if the notice, if it matters or affects anything??? Who fucking CARES who/what the mascot is??? The message is something im reasonably sure 99.99 percent of usernames in this particular commie off brand reddit corner of the internet AGREE WITH. Yet. We sit here shouting at each other and arguing over each fucking comment, nuance and semantic instead of doing even the tiniest, most trivial resistance… this more than anything is why the left is so useless and despicable, as a movement. Theyre too busy shooting each other in the feet to notice the race is already over. MORONS.
