    What are you running? I tried Ubuntu as my daily driver and honestly found it’s user experience pretty shitty. Lots of little buggy issues with the interface and running a few games on steam that support Linux wasn’t great

      i’m running ubuntu. its flawless for me. its less work to set it up how i like it than to remove all the crapware on windows.

      if you are running nvidia it might explain the little issues.

          nvidia doesnt follow the standards with their linux driver, its just the windows driver adapted to run on linux. its not bad for gaming ime, but causes all sorts of little issues on the desktop especially if you are running wayland instead of xorg.

          its changing though, they opened the source code for it and are currently rewriting the driver with the community. long way to go still though.

            Never knew, thanks for the info. Probably explains what I experienced. Nothing super major but just enough to annoy me over time

          nvidia drivers are much less than ideal on linux, it causes all sorts of small issues on the desktop. depends on your setup though, some people run it fine.
