Just like migrating from Reddit to Lemmy it’s the same as migrating from Windows to Linux, there’s shortcomings and learning curve and the more I use Lemmy the more I hate about Windows, because unlike reddit Lemmy is open source and open source softwares communities is more popular than proprietary communities and people like to shit on them (and I loved it). (Sorry for horrible English)

    Interesting. I only have one monitor, so I haven’t run into a lot of those.

    Have you used any other distro which you prefer?

      After typing this message, I realized how much crap I have to deal with in Mint (with my specific setup, not saying everyone has the same experience or that Mint is bad for everyone). I just installed PopOS. It absolutely handles different screen resolutions better out of the box. The tiling feature is interesting, but I’ll have to learn how to use it properly the coming weeks.

      Overall, feels more sleek than Mint with the two hours I spent with it. Pop!_shop feels less cluttered with random repos than Mints Software manager. Where Mint out of the box feels like Windows 7 with a theme that sort of works but sort of feels unfinished and dated, PopOS feels more like OSX. This comes with less customizability on the looks, but atleast stuff that has a place on your screen looks right and has the right amount of padding.

      Time will tell if this is the distro for me, or if I’ll be a distrohopper for life until I eventually land on Arch for the bragging rights.
