  • Congratulations on having something that helped your life. That’s honestly great. But come on you have to admit they manage to find a way to mess up your personal time. Like clockwork my daughter will start waking up/have a nightmare/want attention/etc a few min after I get time to read/study/game/Netflix/etc…

    Kids are great and suck at the same time

    edit fix spelling





  • I have been on Arch a few years now. I switched before the installer was a thing because I wanted to learn more about building my own system. Got hooked and still using it as a daily driver. I normally have to reinstall every 6 months or so. Usually my issues are all self inflicted. I’ll try something new and cause something else to break. I have a laptop that has been running for 18+ months without any issues. But that is web browsing and light text editing.

    So the distro is stable just depends on how much you tinker with it, but that’s true for all distros




  • What type of monitors do you have?I had the same issues with my BenQ monitors about 2 years ago and never found a solution. I ended up using it as an excuse to upgrade from 1080 to 1440.

    Everything worked fine for a few years with the BenQ then after an update it started happening.

    Have you tried a different distro? Just boot from a USB image and give it a few min to sleep. Wondering if it is a x11 or Wayland issue with older monitors




  • It really depends. I work for a large company and we use Ubuntu, Oracle, RedHat, and SLES. We were moving from Oracle to Ubuntu but now we are going back to RedHat.

    Currently we deploy like this: Ubuntu: PostgreSQL, web servers, some engineering workstations, and big data Oracle & RedHat: web servers, security applications, and network systems

    So just having a fundamental understanding of Linux and you will be fine SUSE: SAP and HR software
