Don’t get me wrong. I love Linux and FOSS. I have been using and installing distros on my own since I was 12. Now that I’m working in tech-related positions, after the Reddit migration happened, etc. I recovered my interest in all the Linux environment. I use Ubuntu as my main operating system in my Desktop, but I always end up feeling very limited. There’s always software I can’t use properly (and not just Windows stuff), some stuff badly configured with weird error messages… last time I was not able to even use the apt command. Sometimes I lack time and energy for troubleshooting and sometimes I just fail at it.

I usually end up in need of redoing a fresh install until it breaks up again. Maybe Linux is not good for beginners working full time? Maybe we should do something like that Cisco course that teaches you the basic commands?

    Agree. An engineer I know bounced off when he found out and a screen resolution issue on multiple monitors. My laptop has a 4k resolution, but my monitor is 1080p. The monitor will look zoomed in and I had to adjust scaling until it look fine on the monitor.

      Mann … screen scaling irritates me. I installed KDE plasma since it’s supporing fraction scaling.

      However, its a 10” screen so 100% is too small 200% is too big. So I compromised and choose KDE 125% and now somethings are small some are big.
