I’ve been using Kubuntu on my main laptop for a few years now, and I really enjoy having an environment that just works, doesn’t get in my way, and I don’t have to think about. That’s just the way it should be.

This is my experience, until I go to use my docking station on my desk. I cannot get it to reliably dock nicely and move to my dual monitor setup like I can in windows. Everything else is great, but that needs some serious work if I’m going to move over full time.

Hey, I’ve been wanting to ask this for a long time to someone using Kubuntu- Does it also shove snaps down your face like mainline Ubuntu?

Nope. Which is good because I hate snaps. A media player that can’t play nfs-mounted media or a browser that can’t read my remote KeePass file are just useless to me.

That’s great, at least for now I guess.

Very very happy for all the fixes related to fractional scaling and mouse fixes related to sizes and themes.

Still not excited for KDE6. Idk, I’m on a rolling-release distro so I’m afraid I will get it before it’s ready just to keep up.

KDE5 is really all I need, so if KDE6 introduces issues without solving problem then it will be a complete downgrade in my mind.

This comment reminds me of the early days of KDE4. Fun times.

Plasma 6 seems to be sorting out some of the things that has made me steer clear of Plasma 5. It’s a good thing.

Plus, using a rolling release but not wanting software upgrades? That’s… unorthodox.

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
