I’ve dabbled with Linux over the years, first with Ubuntu in the early 2010s, then Elementary OS when that dropped, and a few years ago I really enjoyed how customizable the gui was with Xubuntu. I was able to make it look just like WIndows 2000 which was really cool.
Which current distro has the best GUI, in your opinion? I find modern Ubuntu to feel a little basic and cheap. I guess I don’t really like modern Gnome. I’m currently using Windows 10 LTSC which is probably the best possible version of Windows, but I’d jump to linux if I could find a distro with a gui that feels at least as polished and feature rich as Windows 10 LTSC.
Yeah, I didn’t want to get into the specifics since that is beyond the scope of the thread here, but I completely agree with you regarding the hostility and pompous attitudes. There is a clear vision of future openSUSE as a containerized Gnome desktop, a shittier Silverblue, which is why I decided to move on after so long on tumbleweed and Leap.
