Just giggled as my last meme mentioned trouble with displays and appropriately, a large chunk of the replies were "well MY displays work just fine!" (And charmingly, many were thoughts of things to check, other distros etc. It's a very kind community, though that may also be the fediverse.)

I run slack, alpine, freebsd, deb and mint for the gui testing on various servers personally and professionally.

I recommend kubuntu.

    Thank you

    I have a recommendation for your recommendations. There's KDE Neon which is distributed by the KDE project, which is Ubuntu-based. That's what I personally run, now that I really don't have the time/energy to tinker.

    I think a verrrrrrry very large part of the problem is that the most vocal linux proselytisers have never actually had to do a job (or have, but done it very badly) where you have to tailor to the client.

    Rookie mistake.

    Is it really a rookie mistake if it's not their job though?

    'Rookie mistake' applies colloquially in many situations that aren't professional.

    When someone asks you for advice on an OS, tech kit, or any other item you should be considering their use case, not your own.
