A few beginner questions about the differences between distros.
-
Couldn't say anything in particular. I think I was looking for Plasma KDE default and it claims to have the stability, support and ease of use of Ubuntu while ripping out the stuff people didn't like that canonical put in.
-
Copy that. Sounds like I'm off to set up a Boot USB.
-
Cheers. Sounds like package management is going to be a bit of a learning experience but what isn't? Should end up being fine
-
Thank you kindly. Sounds like wayland will be just dandy for me. Not married to Photoshop. It's just what I use. I'm sure I can figure my way around something else.
-
If you can figure out how to make a Debian usb installer without help then you’ll be fine.
-
Thanks for your comment. Sounds like KDE's the way foward. Package management sounds like it'll be part of the learning curve but nothing I can't handle.
-
Copy that, will be sure to confirm compatibility and experiment
-
Sounds like experimentation's the aim of the game. Just got a USB so will use that to try.
-
PS is just what I use, I'm not married to it. Also not really a power user so don't mind reskilling.
-
C# is my bread and butter for personal projects. I use IntelliJ at work so might give rider a try.
-
Yeah, I've been thinking of Upgrading my PC once I have the capital. I might end up fully switching off Intel. I chose Intel when I did my build because AMD had a bit of a reputation of poor reliability. I understand though that they've since far outgrown it.
-
Yeah, I did just mean applications in general. Also, not married to PS. It's just what I use. I don't mind switching.
-
I love a bit of shameless self promotion. Especially if it's that comprehensive.
-
Copy that. Got myself a USB so I'll do some playing. Thanks for the clarification. As for hardware, only weird thing might be my sound card but we'll see how that plays out.
-
Wow, that was really comprehensive and clear, thank you. I'll digest and factor into the deliberations. Reckon I'll also switch to AMD with my next build. Main reason I went Intel/Nvidea is cuz AMD's old reputation was still ringing in my ears when I build it.
-
Copy that. I'll look a bit more into the baked in differences then. I understand that different packages can be converted with some effort. Will need to research the others.

Thank you for the advice. I'm definitely approaching this as a learning experience, something I've never really shied away from.
-
Your laptop has a gyro?
I'll give Fedora a go.

Thank you kindly. All is a learning experience in life so this should be fun.
