    Hey hey! I know it's been a minute...there's still some kinks to iron out with video/audio, but I haven't been set up to record for a while - so we'll get there. Thanks for all your patience and support as I find a new rhythm over the coming weeks.

      It's an article on Ubuntu discourse from Canonical's Daniel Van Vugt and it goes into detail on how triple buffering works on Ubuntu 👍🏻 Iirc KDE should already have triple buffering built in, but I'm not sure how well it holds up against what Canonical is doing with Gnome.

    As a total Linux newbie this is all very interesting. Being stuck with Win for more or less my entire life (with a short Mac Mini in there), this is like seeing color for the first time. It's a bit overwhelming with so many choices but watching these gives me a better idea what to narrow in on and which few I should focus on for now.

    Gnome is not my thing. I prefer the W10 look. Taskbar on the bottom with everything I use pinned on it. One click and it's up. Keyboard centered I'm not. I prefer the mouse. I know you can get that look on Ubuntu with Dash to panel extension, but after each new upgrade it's not always working anymore. Snaps and flatpaks I don't like. Tarballs for me.

    Does this current definition of modern involve lots of white space and Windows style skeuomorphic switches like phones have? I'm not quibbling with anything you said beyond using that poor word to describe Ubuntu's Gnome desktop. I think it has become devoid of any real meaning and earned itself a long rest. As for Gnome, I loved Gnome 2 and appreciate having Mate after all these years. Mint with Mate is my default recommendation to anyone in Windows hell. 😉

    I install Ubuntu under Windows 10 HyperV using the straight forward Quick Create function. Guess what. I get no sound.
    Still in 2024 Linux can't get it right.
    I mean seriously guys. People just want to use their computer to watch UA-cam and play a few games.
    If you can't even get that right with your operating system, why don't you give up already and stop trying. This sucks. The Gnome desktop swcks. It doesn't even have the equivalent of a Start menu or Apple Pull down menu. I'm left scratching my head, how do I get to the settings, how do I power down, how do I launch any application that's not pinned on the taskbar. Don't tell me Ubuntu is great. I've tried to use it for 10 years and still... it can't get the basics right. It can't do sound.

    Welcome back! I always enjoy your videos. I hope we'll see you more.
    Canonical has said goodbye to me with 23.10. Other than Firefox and Steam, it's markedly slower and clunkier across the board than 23.04. Snap is still loaded with poor to no performance apps. And there aren't very many meaningful snaps to choose from in the first place. It needs tons of attention. As a garden variety home user since the beginning, I'm very disappointed. If you're not having to deal with IOT, Professional, or Business requirements, it's pretty useless. With Debian Fedora and OpenSUSE being so aggressively working on improving their user experience, the difference is striking. I'm sad.

      I used to think that looking performance wise. Snap is literally obligatory in Ubuntu without any extra repos. If they are forced down our throats, at least let them be safe as they are promoted and forced by Canonical itself. Viruses are a no-no in such repo.

      ​@@UrbanistBloomsagreed 💯 Not only that, snaps are overwhelmingly disliked by the community and Ubuntu just keeps doubling down on them. Not because they offer any benefit to the end user but because they want to IPO and having a closed source platform would look better for them.
