Ubuntu used to work out of the box and with sensible defaults but that’s no longer the case.

Gave Ubuntu another try a month back and external monitor resolution wasn’t right at all.

Switched back to Pop OS.

Pop OS has worked out well for me even better than Ubuntu & Fedora.

On desktop, Linux isn’t the best choice.

People use Linux where it’s the best, servers!

Sure. https://gist.github.com/linusr/18cd6f8b0b059073460f0f3c322b8939

Includes both config & languages config.

Zed now has Linux support.

And then helix editor works with Go LSP, this is my current daily driver. Even without plugins, helix works better and manageable than vim/emacs. Only thing that doesn’t work is debugger.

Mandrake.

And then to Debian and to Ubuntu for a good time. Now using Arch mainly to avoid Snap & Flatpak.

Well done. UX is where most FOSS app let users down. Hope you can improve the UX still keeping it simple.

Same. Switching users didn’t work in Plasma 6 and switched back to Gnome.

I didn’t want to containerize every installed app. Switched to Arch and don’t have to worry about it.

This looks to be more powerful and has more potential. Thanks for sharing.

Then that must be one tool that’s stuck in past and willing to include more features.

And also a sign original developers have lost interest in project.

Seems to be an abandoned project? Last code change was three years back.

No snaps or flatpak by default.

Even without plugins it’s very much usable as a daily driver.

Treesitter is now implemented. Setting up LSP was easier than in neovim. Now it feel fairly complete and ready for plugin system.

I was totally impressed by helix. I would suggest anyone starting new to start with helix instead of vim/neovim.

Hopefully helix would have plug-in system in near future.

I like flatpaks but bundling everything as flatpak is a overkill.

Installed Arch couple of weeks back and was surprised how easy it had become once I overcame the first hurdle of connecting to wifi from command line.

Only thing I’m not happy with is the font rendering in Firefox. Hard to say if it is Arch or Firefox.

Firefox iOS is crippled by Apple’s policy. Orion browser has shown it’s possible to install Firefox extensions on iOS. Hope Firefox implements something similar.
