soooo pop for stability on a desktop system??
for the most part, yes. Pop offers a pretty good overall user experience too! Honestly it has the only appstore that has enough apps for me to not have to use the terminal
Haha this is stunning - that someone will choose something so they are not forced to use a terminal.
Please tell us how you can install and use SearXNG, or Prowlarr, or Overseerr with your superb GUI tools?
Let's face it. For anyone who ever used and is knowledgable about Windows, we must admit that the road to make Linux really useable from GUI alone is a very long one (and one that most of us just get bored with).
Well, my use case very much differs from yours, the appstore has enough apps to serve my needs, happy to hear a different opinion though!
Also, you said it right there, I do not want to be forced to use a terminal all the time, I'd like the option to tinker around when I want to, it's about choice and general accessibility. I'd like to do 90% of my mundane tasks without touching a terminal, but hey that's how I like it.
