Never tried it myself, but you could turn Ubuntu into ā€œkind of a rolling releaseā€:

PopOS! was the distro that convinced me to use linux as a daily driver.
Itā€™s always my nr1 recommendation for people who want to try Linux.

Gnome 3.38 is not playing nice with ARM at all. Got tired of fighting Gnome every six months. So I went looking for something thatā€™s very stable. Good olā€™ Cinnamon. Nothing fancy but always seems to work.

But, as Htop and System Monitor show, it seems to be using a lot of CPU. Might have to re-consider.

Actually, I have tried Rolling Rhino (and still have it) and it isnā€™t bad either. It rolls just fine, and seems to be as usable as any. So far all it takes is a change to your ā€˜updateā€™ aliasā€¦ sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt autoremoveā€¦ so it cleans up after itself :grin:

That sounds great! Thanks for sharing your experience with Rolling Rhino! Currently I donā€™t have any Ubuntu installed on any machine but if/when I will have one I might consider rolling it with :rhinoceros:.

@ricklinux you could follow this post to install it then just replace the French words you want on the conky file, you could also change colors, font etcā€¦

You might like the one I did in a Deepin thread a while back for starters - and we can go anywhere with it from there! :grin:

XFCE with a plank bar and some conky. I made the move to bare metal a month or so ago and I donā€™t miss any files yet, so I guess I did a good job of moving everything. I also donā€™t miss win10 at all, so thatā€™s a very good thing! Posting this before I go all in on BSPWM and blow it all up :smiley:
