Shit, just linux.

Use this community for anything related to linux for now, if it gets too huge maybe there will be some sort of meme/gaming/shitpost spinoff. Currently though… go nuts

Let's make this place more active!

So, title. Personally after trying out pretty much every major distro save gentoo, I've come back to Ubuntu because it just works and I can focus on my work. Did remove snap and install flatpak, but other than that it's mostly stock ubuntu.

I tried Ubuntu Studio for a bit for audio work, but it was really slow for some reason. Even the terminal would take 12 seconds to open up. Couldn't find the problem so I switched to OpenSUSE Leap and now it's super responsive.

Unfortunately, it looks like Wwise refuses to install with Wine or Bottles, so I might not be able to use Linux for work.

Hmm... interesting you mention terminal really slow to open up. I still experience this also - the first time I open a terminal (only), and only if I try to open it shortly after I boot the machine. I've tried several times to find out why this is, but without success (without a terminal it's hard to find out what's blocking the terminal...)

The other thing I dumped was the latest Ubuntu Studio Chromium install, because it installs a snap, which is laggy to fire up, which also drove me crazy. I use the Mint chromium build now, which is a real native build, not a snap, and works great.
