I have only used mint,pop,and nobara on my pc,I tried vanilla but didnt like it, Is there any good ubuntu based distro thats easy to use? I can use the terminal fine,I also want gnome 44
I’d say Linux Mint or Pop OS.
Otherwise, as other comments say, you can try Debian.
Pop or Mint are fantastic. They are my go to.
KDE Neon is great for me.
Linux Mint is great.
I’d go the other direction and choose Debian. It’s what Ubuntu is based on, and actually lives up to the spirit of FOSS.
Arch
Does it involve recompiling the kernel and editing files in /etc?
No kernel compiling but you might need to mod some files in /etc, depending on your goals
Have you tried Arch?
You should try Arch.
It will be exactly what you make it.
It has great documentation and walkthroughs.
It’s got a cool name.
You get to say you run Arch.
Join us… cthulu ftaghnDear god, please do not recommend arch to people without telling them what to expect…
OP: With Arch, expect to spend a couple hours setting it up before seeing a GUI, and be ready for periodic system-breaking updates which have to be resolved.
I tried vanilla but didnt like it
Why?
Why does it have to be an Ubuntu derivate?
Just use Arch.
The funny thing is I’m actually using arch right now
I’d try the search function of distrowatch and search based Ubuntu-base. IMO if you want gnome 44 you should stick with Ubuntu vanilla. But cinnamon Mint is better imo.
