I’m distro hopping because Ubuntu was perfect for me in basically every way, but I don’t want to be locked to a closed distro..

I haven’t found anything I like yet, and I don’t have the skills (or motivation) to make core Debian feel the same.

I’ll probably end up back on Ubuntu, at least for my server machine.. it just worked the way I wanted it to, and the ui was lovely for me. Plus it’s stable enough that I can just keep it up indefinitely without issue.

I use Ubuntu too, because it works and has wide compatibility for everything, any software that supports Linux is generally tested on Ubuntu, etc. I use Ubuntu because if I tried anything else I'd end up becoming a distro hopper lol

You comment gives me vibes of "I don't do heroin because I know I'd get addicted". I say this as someone who is currently flirting with distro hopping. I wouldn't call myself a distro-hopper yet, but I'm certainly en route to that
