This is incredibly troubling; I cannot see myself ever using Wordpress going forward. It is just too risky.

Very exciting, especially to see Moungi receive the Nobel. He is such a hardworking, humble, and honest person.

The problem is actually much worse for topical drugs, where there is often very little information as to the how, where, when, and how much of drug permeation through the skin. It’s a huge gap in our understanding not just for brand name dr

I made the same move a few years ago and honestly never looked back. Manjaro might have its warts, but it works really well, has an active community, and gives almost all the advantages of Arch (the AUR is amazing!) for "cowards"

This is very exciting to see. I invested in several System76 machines for my team, and have been extremely happy with the computers and distribution. Coming to Pop_OS! from Ubuntu has been wonderful - systems upgrade properly, external devi

I set up Linux on a Dell XPS 13 with the HiDPI screen. With both Ubuntu and Manjaro it was relatively painless, especially using GNOME via Wayland. i3 and sway also worked well too. I had heard a lot of issues with Linux and HiDPI, and was

I agree. In the last ten years I have had Macbooks, a Surface tablet, a Surfacebook, and am now on a XPS 13. I found that Microsoft's surfaces had great build quality, IMHO on par or better than the Apple laptops. Like the author of th

I did this and it was smooth sailing. All I had to do was set the hard drives from RAID to ACHI in the BIOS.

I had the exact same problem - as others have already said, its a problem with electron not having Wayland support. I solved it in two different ways: - An unofficial Teams app ( https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams

> Wayland is really slow I have to wonder if this is distribution dependent? On Manjaro my experience with Wayland has been fantastic. I cannot perceive any speed differences vs X.org; Wayland just flies. It would be interesting to poll

Exciting, but let's see how long this takes to be released (not to insiders). I was excited when WSL 2 was announced, but it took almost a year to be released to stable. I had immediate needs that WSL 1 couldnt meet, and I could not ru

Same here. I have a VM ready to go in case I need Windows. I just checked and last used it in April... Maybe it's time to delete that VM.

If this is an issue, try using Wayland instead of X11. I run PopOS on a similar setup and it works flawlessly under Wayland. Give PopOS a try, you won't be disappointed! Edit: there was no configuration needed. I selected Wayland from

Definitely this. Manjaro is out-of-the-box ready, but based on Arch. Manjaro stable is also two more testing steps away from Arch, so the packages are less likely to cause issues. And there are four sources for software: Manjaro repos, the

Running Manjaro Gnome on a 4K display; it works perfectly without any of the problems you describe. You might want to give Linux a chance again.

I am a huge fan of Joplin. Love that it has both a GUI as well as terminal interface and syncs via Dropbox. I can use vim emulation in the GUI and real vim when running from the terminal.Oh - and it has a mobile app too. All libre software.

Started out with Slackware 22 years ago, and have migrated through Mandrake, Red Hat, and Ubuntu since then. Recent made the move to Manjaro because I wanted Arch but with stability. Haven't looked back.

This strongly resonates with me. As as sometime who has considered Julia, I would be happy to sign up so that devs could use the information. Opt-out instead of opt-in is a dark pattern; I am uncomfortable seeing it used. Julia needs adopte

I have the 2019 XPS 13 with the hidpi screen. It runs Linux beautifully. I used to run Ubuntu 18.04 and now run Manjaro. Both work without a hitch. I use GNOME, so the hidpi performance is really great. I strongly recommend the XPS 13 line

I remember installing BeOS 5 PE this way. I think it installed using a loopback configuration. It really was the easiest OS install I have ever done. Even compared to the tools available today, BeOS 5 was like magic. 5 second boot times on

I have had good success using Manjaro on my Pi 4 with 4 GB of RAM. It is an altogether vastly better experience than using Raspbian, in my opinion - even when using KDE. Docker, Code OSS, and a ton of tools were up and running right away wi

I took a shot and tried Manjaro. After using it for a few weeks, I can say that I absolutely love it, and will be a Manjaro user for a long time on my personal machines. For new users, I have been recommending Pop_OS.

I had been an Ubuntu user for almost 16 years, on servers, laptops, and recently containers. The snap situation with Ubuntu is just plain unpalatable, both in principal and in practice. I became so disappointed in the move by Canonical that

Manjaro is simply fantastic. I switched when upgrading Ubuntu failed again . Hardware detection is great, defaults are sane, and pacman is a great package manager. The AUR is also amazing.

Seconded! Manjaro just works.

Echoing others here: use Pop_OS or Manjaro. Pop_OS is really the best of Ubuntu, but with sane defaults that respect you. Manjaro just works, every time, every install I try.

Absolutely - I had been playing with i3 and other tiling window managers, but I always miss the full DE experience when using them. Pop-shell looks like it might fill the gap between Gnome and i3: tiling goodness with a full DE. I am lookin

I run both Manjaro on my laptop and PopOS on my workstation, and highly recommend both as great options to someone coming from MacOS like I did. PopOS on System76 hardware is very much like MacOS on Apple hardware in that things just work a
