Tried switching to KDE Plasma and then OpenCV broke because of outdated QT version or some shit. Same with another distro. And I couldn’t install two versions at the same time.
Fair, that reply above is not helpful at all. I mean yeah, I have had my fair share of dependence hell as well. Mostly when trying to install an external deb package. I know how to prevent it nowadays but it ain’t user friendly at all.
Also I would be hesitant to use Linux as a workstation. If I had the luxury of time I would for ideological reasons alone. But I don’t have that kind of time. Troubleshooting can become costly when you get paid by the hour.
Depends on what you do, most of the deep-learning world and scientific computing is based on Ubuntu. And not just Ubuntu but currently 22.04. Even upgrading the distro can bring compatibility conflicts.
I have a massive hate boner for development on Windows for things such as the \ in the paths and needing to install a 10gig IDE to do cpp development. Or they tell you WSL “just works” while it doesn’t “just work” because it can’t cv2.imshow your images because there’s no X11 passthrough etc.
Compatible issues on desktop environment level? This is the first time I ever hear about that.

It’s all fun until you get dependency conflicts.
Bro. I think you would benefit from sticking to Chrome OS.
That’s a great insult, I love it :D
Nice comeback when you get evidence of how a different DE breaks software compatibility.
It’s clear that this is a forum of people that only install Linux to open their terminal and type neofetch.
