Hello all,
I would like to transition my GF to linux.
To make the switch easy I'll go for Ubuntu, but what would be the most windows-like desktop ?
Thank you!
Edit : thank you everyone, I'll go with Mint instead then đź‘Ť Thanks for the help!
You're viewing a single thread.
I'd say KDE since it offers fully working Wayland already.
Enough about Wayland already. We knowwwww.
Wayland mfs trying not to talk about Wayland whenever Linux is mentioned
What difference would this make to a new Linux user? Basically none, right?
No screen tearing never. My laptop saw a significant battery life boost (basicly doubled) when I switched DWM into DWL but I don't know exactly why.
And because Wayland is the future and xorg decrepatec, why you'd recommend xorg for anybody since they must swtich at some point and I doubt even the most basic user can make that transition 100% flawlessly.
Lack of screen tearing is a good point if it makes a difference on that person's hardware.
My thought wasn't so much about recommending xorg (or not), more about whether the user would even be aware what that meant, or care at the point when they start using Linux. Kind of like launching straight into a flame war about systemd. In theory they (or their distro) should be able to switch the backend without the user noticing
