Hm. And how long have you been using Linux, exactly?
- jrm4 3y agoCan't tell you "exactly" because it's been so long. Might have been as early as '99? Was definitely using Ubuntu as a desktop from its literal beginning. Why?
- Gordonjcp 3y agoOkay, so relatively new then. Cool, no worries. The "new Ubuntu crap" is actually pretty good. You should take a look at it.
- jrm4 3y agoHow is that "new?" Anyway, no, the new Ubuntu crap is mostly just that. This isn't a mere idea; I teach IT and every semester I require folks to use a Linux desktop. Mint, MX, Lubuntu and Ubuntu, the occasional Arch are all in testing rotation; over the past few years Ubuntu/Gnome give me the most trouble -- they just suck at backwards compatibility.
