Yeah. “I use OpenSUSE tumbleweed, but have reasons I’ve been thinking about switching. I consistently hear that mint is a good place to start, or maybe pop!os if you’re looking to run games”

I don’t actually even say the first sentence unless the question was “what do you use?”

Sometimes, if it’s clear they’re trying to revive very old hardware I might help them search for something built around being lightweight.

I’m mostly happy with tumbleweed, except that I have the nvidia repo set up and am convinced that it’s causing issues. One of these days I’ll look into how to try the nouveau drivers and/or how to get from my current setup to dualbooting pop!os without disrupting things I need for work.

Also, an update straight up broke emacs while i was in crunch time once, but I learned to be more careful about my update timing.
