Fair, that reply above is not helpful at all. I mean yeah, I have had my fair share of dependence hell as well. Mostly when trying to install an external deb package. I know how to prevent it nowadays but it ain’t user friendly at all.
Also I would be hesitant to use Linux as a workstation. If I had the luxury of time I would for ideological reasons alone. But I don’t have that kind of time. Troubleshooting can become costly when you get paid by the hour.
Depends on what you do, most of the deep-learning world and scientific computing is based on Ubuntu. And not just Ubuntu but currently 22.04. Even upgrading the distro can bring compatibility conflicts.
I have a massive hate boner for development on Windows for things such as the \ in the paths and needing to install a 10gig IDE to do cpp development. Or they tell you WSL “just works” while it doesn’t “just work” because it can’t cv2.imshow your images because there’s no X11 passthrough etc.

That’s a great insult, I love it :D
Nice comeback when you get evidence of how a different DE breaks software compatibility.
It’s clear that this is a forum of people that only install Linux to open their terminal and type neofetch.
