    I used to use xubuntu on a very old (more than a decade old sony laptop) but an os update broke some of the software I used. Switched to mxlinux (with xfce). More bloated but at least it works out of the box

      Is it with the newest Ubuntu update? Heard that there were some people having a problem with it as well on initial release and had to reinstall the whole OS.

      Currently using both Pop OS and Fedora on separate machines and I had no problems with those atm.

          One lesson I learn is to always backup before upgrading the OS kasi there’s a possibility talaga na magkaproblema.

          Same. Wanted to test out Debian, too, kasi stable daw tsaka even if it’s outdated, we can use flatpak naman.
