Unfortunately Elementary has so far struggled with the 1920x1080 screen on my Huawei Matebook D (bought a few months before the scandal). I haven't installed Hera yet, but hopefully the new text size option works as well as I'd like it to.
Otherwise my experience with Elementary has been... not so bad. The speakers are too quiet for some reason, my university's Wifi won't accept my credentials (every other network is fine) and occasionally Firefox crashes the world, but that's all, so far.
Wish list: a stable, possibly read-only[-only], update of ext2fsd, and a proper Paintbrush clone. Also, .txt files should not automatically open in Code, which would probably scare my mom.

- zozbot234 7y ago> a proper Paintbrush clone What's wrong with xpaint? Quite old of course, but it seems to work fine.

- scythe 7y agoI'm happy to report that the annoying text size issue is fixed in the new version of Elementary. However, the Firefox crashes still happen, and are the biggest issue with the system. I can't recommend it as long as it's still panicking every few days. (Firefox is not the only app, but certainly the most likely, for me to be using when it freezes; no, I haven't delved too far into this, nor have I made any strange modifications to the system.) It works with the Wifi chip, speakers are too quiet (?), suspend/power is fine (yay!), graphics seem to work. Overall a very near miss.
