Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I have no what extra it provides, all I know is I was debugging for a while after the update, and I had to make compromises because of bugs I couldn't fix. Soooo

Works mostly fine for me, but for some reason the system tray popups don't work on my 2nd monitor most of the time, but sometimes they seemingly randomly work. Otherwise completely smooth sailing.

Only issue for me is that the KWin scripting API doesn't work the way it did so my custom shortcut doesn't work.

I tried it on my laptop. Apps that used to run without any problems would terminate randomly. I also tried it on desktop with AMD video card and didn’t observe this issue.

Overall i went back to gnome 3 days later.

It was unstable in my case (AMD and Intel graphics), the UI is not great in my personal opinion and to me it just looks and feels like a low-budget beginner OEM system. Sorry KDE devs but that's my opinion
