    I really don’t know what the problem was with Ubuntu. I had issues every time I tried… but funny enough, these problems seemed to only happen if I was running a live USB or an installed copy. Ubuntu or Mint on a VM seems to work just fine! LOL

    Oh well, I’m quite happy with where I’m at now, but I’m glad that my past issues don’t seem common or “normal”.















  • Unfortunately the issues with apps might be the snap packaging, this does slow apps down a bit which could cause pretty much all the remaining issues. I haven’t personally used it but might look up flatpak as a replacement and see if that helps. If others don’t explain how to do this I will try to come edit this later with an explainer or link or something to help.

    I’ve been reading about Snap packages not being ideal.

    I did get flatpak working (one app is only distributed through flatpaks), but I wonder if it would be better to move any packages to flatpaks, or even just DEB packages instead of Snap.
