How usable is PopOS 24.04? (programming.dev)

How usable is PopOS 24.04? I'm aware that it's still in beta, and COSMIC is in beta too. But I've been using it on Arch for a couple of weeks, and I've been loving it.

Is it rational for me to recommend PopOS 24 to a fairly experienced friend? He's used Arcolinux and CachyOS; his computer uses a Nvidia GTX 1060.

He wants a comfortable Linux experience, and a distro with good Nvidia support. What are his options?

adw-gtk3 contributes a small bit to the consistency of window decorations

Completics - FOSS project planner in c/opensource@lemmy.ml

Do you mean FOSS project planner or FOSS project planner? Is it exclusively for planning FOSS projects?

Jokes apart, it looks promising

YouTube’s selfie collection, AI age checks are concerning, privacy experts say in c/privacy@lemmy.world

It doesn't take an expert to arrive at such a conclusion

Deleting Windows from dual boot Linux/Windows computer in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[–] magitian@programming.dev 6 points 5 months ago

Why do you try to make Linux seem unusable? It's not "Linux"'s fault proprietary software doesn't work on it. Would you criticize GNOME, KDE Plasma etc. and any of the gazillion other pieces of software exclusive to Linux for not working on W*ndows to reach a wider audience next?

Or in this case, the year of the Linux desktop after a couple of years 😉

Very optimistic about this DWL fork - animations, rounded corners and overviews. But I wish it were trivial to patch DWL to include these features.

CachyOS provides optimised Linux kernels out of the box, leading to significant performance gains. I got a friend to install Cachy on his old computer, and his experience is similar too.
