I’ve been using Linux on and off for about 15 years, but was never able to make the leap to using it full-time until PopOS. It’s been painless to use and does everything I need with only minor tweaks. Thank you System76! I can’t wait until the Cosmic DE is released.

(too bad about the name, though…)

    Good for you! Pop!_OS is where I got my start as well about a year ago. 12 distros later I’m a happy EndeavourOS user. Learning an arch based system was a bit of a jump from “easy” distros like pop and mint, but it’s significantly snappier and issue free so far, so long as you get handy with the terminal.

    Pop is great, but don’t be afraid to branch out and play around at some point, I have as much fun fiddling with my system as I do gaming now.

      Endeavour was my second-favourite during my last test drive of various distros but I had some reservations about using an Arch-based distro for my work machine compared to the generally more stable Debian/Ubuntu. I’m also not sure I can live without the PopOS window tiling feature.

        I use KDE with EOS and I’d argue that the tiling is better. Super+t opens your tiling layout, you can split your desktop up into a preferred format, split up any way you like, shift+click and drag to pop windows into the tile spaces. I’m sure there’s other hot keys for it I haven’t bothered to learn yet. Pull up a video on it sometime.

            No. EOS is short form for EndeavourOS. The tiling is not a function of a distro, but a function of the desktop environment running over the distro, in my case KDE Plasma, which has the excellent tiling system I referenced in my prior comment.
