I just switched from Pop!_OS to openSUSE, but not through any fault of Pop. I really liked it in fact, and it was great to have a distro to show me out of the box what was possible on other distros after a bit of configuration. It's certainly tempting me to get a System76 laptop.

I don't know how others feel about it here, but I've recently returned to Linux as well and picked Pop!_OS for my gaming PC. The main draw was that you can download a spin with the Nvidia drivers preinstalled, so you can get up and running without any faff. It's also just really nice to use in general.

The caveat to all that is that the Nvidia drivers in the distro's repo are currently a little out of date, although a more up to date release is apparently due "soon" and should be completely tested for compatibility.

I very recently (like last week!) stuck a new drive in my PC to run Pop!_OS, with the aim of switching over from Windows entirely if it pans out. So far I've only tested Steam for games, but it's worked flawlessly for the games I've tried using Proton.

I've had a Steam Deck for some time which convinced me to make the jump. My desktop was my only Windows machine and I'd love to properly switch it to Linux.

You can't do that with Pihole as the ads come from the same domains, and basically need a browser extension or an app with a built in equivalent.

If you're in the UK though, it does block the ads on All4 which was a nice surprise. It even works for the TV app.

It was, and then it wasn't as the admin had to enable Cloudflare DDOS protection during the Reddit surge. This broke federation, but it's back off now and Kbin's back in the fold.

I haven't touched Reddit since discovering kbin and Lemmy. I'm sure I'll end up using it inow and again when searching for stuff, but otherwise good riddance.

This was more useful list, and certainly a better populated one.

Even this requirement is enough to deter what I imagine is the vast amount of trolls. If people act up after being approved, they get banned.
