On sync at least if you open tall images from the post it will be readable.

Amazing. I’m not OP and have no use for this info, but it was fun to learn it still.

I feel like there are some missed opportunities

• Sensors that don’t work because a proprietary driver is missing
• Having to add repositories to get wifi working
• Voice assistant that only works if you know terminal command parameters by heart
• More tool windows
• More xorg.conf to get displays working
• A flame war about the relative benefits of obscure infrastructure componemts
• 7 package managers, 3 if which are needed to install 90% of needed software. The remaining 10% somehow still needs to be installed via shell scripts
• Completely new UI in each version, still looks like it was designed by german ocelots in the 90s

I use gimp daily, but it is still far, far behind photoshop from when I was studying and that was pre 2010.

The biggest problem is the UI. The only major improvement was the transition from multi window to single window with tabs, around 2012 or so.

It feels like using a hammer with a purple dildo for a handle. I can do it after 10 years of getting the hang of swinging around the wobbly thing. Meanwile the rest of the world transitioned to battery driven nailguns and I’m still swinging my dilmer with a slightly more rigid handle.

I have found Linux to have excellent HW support for all older hardware. Only notable exception is fingerprint readers. Granted, it’s been years since I tried gaming.
