Stable? Good? Bad? Annoying? Is it beginner friendly? Should I try KDE or Gnome?
I’ve only used Mint and SteamOS and from what I understand KDE should be similar to SteamOS Desktop mode because that is KDE based, right?
I don’t plan to distro hop any time soon, but I’m just curious if I ever get a new laptop I might try it to take advantage of it supposedly being descent at performance optimisation
What’s wrong with flatpaks again?
Snaps were the original version. The main hate is because the Snap system is proprietary to Canonical and Ubuntu. Snaps were also laggy - very slow and took up a lot of resources when initially ran.
When Flatpaks were introduced, they were meant to run on all distros and not just Ubuntu, but by then, the distaste for anything Snap-like was set in.
At least, that’s how I’m remembering it.
they are large because they package all dependencies and can cause headaches with permissions stuff due to sandboxing
