Update: I chose mint. I can trust Mint to update the backend.

I’m about to switch back to Debian.Any reason I don’t know of that Elementary OS would be a bad idea? I know Debian. I don’t know the nuances of Arch or red hat.

I found my final missing FOSS video editor that finally gets me off Windows. I’ve been having issues with indexing on windows, and they keep turning on that fucking reminder to sign into One drive even after I destroy it with a registry change.

    Last time I used Elementary OS, it was great if you were only using the official apps, with insane degrees of polish, but things like LibreOffice were surprisingly hard to configure the way I wanted. That was a while ago, though.

      This was my experience about a year or two ago. I was really impressed with how polished it was in ecosystem. Using Firefox, Typora, Plex and a bunch of other things that solved my user needs better don’t quite fit in right. When the update came that required me to wipe my system, I switched to Mint. I’m happy where I am now, but don’t believe Elementary was a bad thing - just clearly wasn’t aligned with what I needed.
