It's bad everywhere. Every time I've upgraded Ubuntu on my old laptop, performance gets worse and worse because more and more junk keeps getting added. Absolutely maddening.
- exe34 1y agomy nixos with just xmonad works really well, I haven't noticed any degradation in the last 10 years of updates.
- xenophonf 1y agoNixOS looks super cool, but it also looks too much like actual work. As a FreeBSD main for two decades, I've played that game already and have the (sadly, now long dead) tinderbox and poudriere installations to prove it.
- Scramblejams 1y agoIs it the desktop environment or background stuff that’s getting worse for you? If the former: FWIW I was pleasantly surprised when I switched back to Kubuntu. KDE’s surprisingly resource efficient these days, actually seems pretty close to XFCE.
- xenophonf 1y agoI'm not sure and don't have the patience to check. I might go back to Debian. I'm only really using Ubuntu since that and RHEL are what we use at work.
