I’m really enjoying Pop!_OS, but their logo could use some workshopping imo. I’ve been considering trying an upstream distro as an educational experience anyway, yet somehow this is what I’m feeling excited about. I don’t know why - nobody but me is ever going to see my neofetch output. Lol

(NixOS isn’t really in the running… I just wanted a 3rd example and like the logo)

    Automatic updates will not work though and there’s no gui that will prompt you to do so at all.

    That’s probably a disqualifying feature for laypeople-suitability. “Normies” ad in “non-techies” won’t easily dare touch the command line and certainly not think of frequently using it to check for updates, but not having any security updates is a bad idea.

      The one exception here: it’s great to have it installed on your parents’ PC when you’re the one doing the update once in a while when you are around. Rock solid in between, no nagging, and if something did break, easy to roll back.
