What I would like to add is: bluetooth support and sound stuff. It feels like it's still an afterthought in the community and is still flaky at best.
I think the main problem with linux on desktops shows quite perfectly in this thread. Good UX? Nah, why would we? Invest your own time, fiddle around until you settle on a mediocre and cumbersome solution.
I've been using Arch for over 13 years now and over 10 years of MacBooks with a short break. It feels like the problems are still the same. Though the X auto configuration got way better.
I love (especially) Arch though, but not the experience of using it on a day-to-day basis. I always miss pacman on macs, but I miss the UX on arch.
- sergeykish 6y agoYou are too harsh, good UX is subjective. I have not found anything better than wmii, last year replicated experience in xmonad now without any WM controls. My environment is clean and unobtrusive — xterm, vim, mpv, mupdf. Arch Linux user since 2009. Recently I've tried Windows and macOS, can't stand them. There are other projects though — Gnome, KDE, more mainstream approach.
