Linux is finicky. I've tried to use and like Linux about every 2 years for the past 2 decades. Generally Ubuntu, and have experimented with Manjaro and Mint. I invariable find myself up with an obscene number of browser tabs open trying to fix various problems ranging from minor to severe that distill to copy+pasting CLI commands. Most recently, the experience on a tablet I use primarily for writing involved laggy input, no good drawing software, and experimenting with custom kernels. I'm suspicious the problem is rooted in 2 areas: design-by-committee, and messy dependency webs.
