If you don't want to tinker with your UI, would suggest PopOS (System76 distro).
If you like to tinker, I really like Ubuntu Budgie, which lets me have some bits of config based on Windows, Mac and just different from either. I took a few days to get it how I liked, and over a year since without much issue. Alternatively, there's always Mint or other Ubuntu or Fedora options out there.
All said, I really liked PopOS, it has some very sane defaults, good out of the box support for hardware as well. Most of the support is upstream via Ubuntu, but a lot of UI tweaks and custom additions are coming from System76, and they have been doing very well. Will likely switch back for the next LTS release.
- mcv 4y agoPopOS doesn't let me tinker with the UI? That's a shame. It was a big contender for me. But if it's Ubuntu-based, shouldn't it be just as configurable?
- tracker1 4y agoYou can absolutely tinker, or replace the DE if you like... it's just less configurable out of the box than Ubuntu Budgie, generally speaking.
- evilduck 4y agoIt's just Linux. PopOS uses Gnome which is less tinker friendly but you can still tweak some things or just install KDE or any other DE.
