Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

I need them to decide on Wayland or x and make the damn switch. I’m tired of switching servers for apps.
They did. It’s Wayland. Everything should work in Wayland now. It’s the default for everything, even xfce (4.20+), and x compatibility is handled by xwayland.
I’ve been running Ubuntu lts waiting on a new one, so it’s a me problem as usual. Getting new hardware soon, I’ll play with some big boy distros
You can jump to 25.10 for the short-term release, and there’s a preview available for 26.04 (officially releases in April), both of which have Wayland by default in Plasma and I believe Gnome.
Though I would strongly recommend you try Debian, version 13 (Trixie) includes Plasma 6 and of course Wayland by default.
It’s a bright future.
I don’t remember why but I was trying to stay on Ubuntu lts on this computer. Honestly I need to just wipe the drive and start over.
It was probably from before Debian included the non-free firmware in the installation media, so you had to scramble to put those on a floppy disk or something, all while your system was out of commission.
🤣 I missed floppy’s but I remember those days
I miss Zip Disks. Those things were so cool and so outclassed by perpendicular progress.
They were expensive too. My dad had them for something. and then the media died.
