Having to use windows at work makes me appreciate my desktop Linux experience at home. - eviltoast

I’m a teacher and our division just “upgraded” to W11 with a new version of outlook that is basically a web app on desktop. Several times a day my laptop comes to a complete crawl while Teams decides to open itself. Can’t open or close programs, Firefox won’t register mouse clicks, nothing. Graphical glitches appear al the time with menu bars and task bars disappearing regularly, requiring force quitting the app or logging out of the desktop.

When I first switched to Linux I assumed my experience would be like this. But now it’s the other way around.

Rant over.

    Pop setup it also mostly just works. There are occasional freezes that require a restart and such

    Weird. I used Pop for 3-4 years and not once did it freeze, stutter, or require a restart that wasn’t related to an update.

      For me the pop shop always froze. At least that thought me how to use the terminal. But even regular GNOME software was miles ahead of their shop…
