To be honest.. A lot of social media should actually be banned.

What are the advantages of Mint then compared to pop os? In what terms does it run circles around pop?

My biggest point is that it works out of the box and that it feels more premium compared to Ubuntu. It also auto updates nowadays and they build special mechanisms to preserve your battery if used on a laptop. Soon they will come out with their own desktop. They specifically focus on people who develop. Just sounds like a good option for OP. Compared to more difficult installations.

Why is no-one recommending pop-os? Works fine for me in all aspects. They even provide hardware, but that's not needed, you can just use the OS.

thanks, I enjoyed reading that history. I usually use it when something hangs on the desktop as you said. :)

Ctrl Alt f1 f2 etc. Why do these desktops/cli exist. What was their intended purpose and what do people use them for today? Is it just legacy of does it stll serve a purpose?

I believe it's just a gnome plugin. Look it up. :)

I always played shooters. Recently I played assassin's Creed and the Witcher series. So it's fairly general and main stream I think.

yeah the location, the atmosphere. I generally don't play these type of games so I probably should've never considered it. But all my friends were playing it so I tried it.

I actually refunded it. I didn't like the setting. it's just not for me.

Opinions are always biased.

Ah man, I was like this is not a very big deal but in a way I felt a little sad when it actually stopped working. They should rename the app to, reddit is not fun.
