I’ve been using Linux Mint since forever. I’ve never felt a reason to change. But I’m interested in what persuaded others to move.

    Ubuntu. Started out great but every release got worse with time.

    I’ve always used KDE, so always was on kubuntu, or mint, but my latest kubuntu install managed to piss me off badly with its systemd taking over. A simple 10 seconds port=number config in sshd_config change now requires 20 minutes of searches, documentation readup, cursing, and jumping systemd hoops

    FUCK systemd

    Also FUCK SNAP. Absolute horrid garbage.

    My next distro will be debian or some derivative, bye bye Ubuntu

      I’ve learned to like systemd over time, but not snaps and how Canonical handles things.

      Debian also uses systemd nowadays, maybe you can try devuan (I think that’s how it’s called,) which is debian based but without systemd. I only tried it once on a server but came back to debian.
