I guess it depends what you mean by "smoother". The thing I appreciate about Ubuntu as compared to windows is how quiet it is. The only things I see are the things I put there. With win10 there is so much noise on the desktop, in the start menu, and in system notifications. After switching it feels relatively stressful to use Windows.
Also I can't remember the last time Ubuntu crashed on me.
- OJFord 6y agoI'm pretty sure Arch has never crashed on me; I remember plenty of BSODs from Windows. Sure, I've messed up configuration and myself broken pieces of it, but I could do that on Windows too. But memes won't die, arch is unstable, Linux is hard and for nerds only. (I should add that I'm not even a careful Arch user - one probably should check news before upgrading; I've never bothered.)
- bluecatswim 6y agoI've never used Arch but I think it should be considered as the "default" GNU/Linux distro at this point, Canonical have made plenty of bad decisions in the past year (forcing snaps for certain packages, advertisements in the MOTD, etc) and Ubuntu doesn't provide a lot in terms of user-friendliness over Arch with an installer. And from what I've heard Arch also works painlessly for casual applications like gaming with Proton because of the efforts the community has put into it, despite it not being a distro officially supported by Proton.
- OJFord 6y agoHm, definitely would need a friendly installer though. To the point of selecting a 'theme' so that it boots up afterwards looking like Ubuntu, or something out of /r/UnixPorn.
