I used Ubuntu once a few years ago but had compatability issues so I went back to windows. Not a great programmer but I’d like to learn. I’m not looking to do much gaming beyond DOOM2 and factorio. Mostly looking for privacy and a way to get back into programming (I have this pipe dream of learning Assembly). I’m not to particular on UI, I can use whatever.

It’s plenty good out of the box, it was my first distro and I had a great time with it. But after learning more about what I like about a distro I ended up changing. But I’m glad it was my first 😉
Niice! What did you like about it and what did you switch to. I’m on Ubuntu LTS right now. I just worry about driver issues, as everything I have hooked up seems to just work.
As it was my first distro I felt that most things just worked out of the box, compared to what I have learned and experienced on other distro. It has good Nvidia support which is why I chose it. I only switched as I want to distro hop to find what I like the best and to learn 🙌
Considering PopOS is well maintained and supported by System76 I wouldn’t worry about driver issues.
Yeah, they seem neat. I just have a display link USB video card that support is tricky for.
