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.

Oh it’s my go to Linux distro. I wanted to know if there were any reasons not to use it and for better alternatives or opinions that could sway me to a different distro.

I would switch to eOS if there would be a word processor or a WYMIWYG editor that follows it’s guidelines. Because I damn love the cohesive look and feel.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
