Oh god, no. Forgive me my ranting, but... - NetworkManager has to be restarted regularly because it breaks after too many suspend cycles - and I have an intel wlan card. The last bug I've seen is NetworkManager killing my ipv4 routes without reason - ipv6 keeps working correctly. Wat? - The more we go forward, the more things get convoluted. Features get removed because "streamlining" an so on, but at the same time the entire system gets more opaque, layer upon layer upon layer. - Third party app support is still pretty bad. See spotify for a shining example. - the 3D graphic stack is pretty horrible. No, absolutely horrible. There was a MESA "revision" going on to fix some of the issues, but it's been a long time since I've seen anything. .. and I can go forward. I'm sorry, but Linux has not matured on the desktop. It's usable, with a lot of warts all around, but is not "mature". And the costant focus on building new shiny thingies instead of improving internals is a problem. All in all, I've been using linux on my desktop/laptops for years, and the older I get the less time I have to report bugs and find workaround or write patches, maybe to be told by some nice welcoming community that since I'm not a developer I'm not an user.
