NixOS. A big learning curve but replicable.

I do suspect a small but vocal crowd of people will spread doom and gloom about it on social media anyway, of course.

I see they're here already

How did they end up thinking that everything must be done with terminal while using Ubuntu?

When asking for help in a Linux sub/forum/community, the answer will generally use the terminal because it works across desktops and even distros. It's a lot easier to give one or two commands than it is to work out what distro, what desktop, and what settings the querier has, then describe the steps necessary in that particular GUI.

This may lead to the impression that the terminal is required for day to day use of Linux.

Congratulations. And may I be the first to say oh my god, those whiskers!

Finnegan, the grey, isn't mine but he is Percy's friend and a regular visitor. He eats my lot's food, plays with their toys, sleeps on their sofa, and is becoming friendly with their human. I think that I have a timeshare in a sixth cat!

Never pay for software for your job unless you're self employed. That's the employers responsibility.

I settled on openSUSE Tumbleweed because it's rolling and reliable. I chose KDE Plasma long before I chose my distro.

Wayland has been working perfectly for years now.

Not for every one. For example, I still get random black screens with only mouse trails, windows disappearing, and videos not playing properly. Why yes, I do have an Nvidia card, thank you for asking.

It wasn't on Linux on but on a Vax Unix machine in the early 90s. We were an IBM shop but the accounts department got a Vax to run their new software. Obviously we were expected to look after this little box with no training. Things went quite well until it started to to run out of space. I found a huge file called vmuniz iirc and couldn't see anything using using it. The file was deleted and the job was done. Until we rebooted.
