Okay I have a case coming in to shove my junk in it. 8500t (temporary until I get a 8700k) -16gb ram -1060 6gb -2 2.5ssd -2 3.5hdd

I'm partial to Mint and Debian commands. Anyone have a suggestion before I go balls deep into a Mint distro build?

Fedora! It’s great

Thinking about making the move from Pop!_OS. Pop has been good, and it's not like I need to be on the latest thing, but it's still on Gnome 42 I think. Pop is starting to feel a bit long in the tooth.

Why? isn't it 22.4? And five versions old Gnome. Have you tried the new alpha?

[–] ChillPill@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I haven't tried the alpha. Maybe I'll spin up a VM later.

Its just feeling a little old. Missing out on newer features and more modern looking ui. Nothing critical, just nice to have.
