It was so brutal in 2006 that it took me nearly 20 years to shrug it off and try again. I’m not proud of this, but it’s the truth.

- tough 1mo agoIts been only 20 years since 2006 maybe you meant 19?
- SV_BubbleTime 1mo agoTypo… but it felt like nearly 29. I remember trying again with Ibex and nearly rage quitting X11 config. Glad all that BS has been worked out.
- davsti4 1mo agoThat was about the time of the Redhat 9 to Fedora shift and I felt the pain too. I was using RH9 for the stability, but then switched to Fedora like everyone was supposed to. Well, that was a big bag of something left on the doorstep. I had to spend countless evenings messing with configs to get the system useable; then upgrades would break things. Finally found stability with Ubuntu after a few years, and still use it today, albeit with KDE since Gnome's philosophy of unconfigurable defaults is disappointing.
