there's just no reason to start using it when mint exists
Configuring Kubuntu for my liking is way easier than configuring mint for my liking, and some of that mint configuration is going out of the way to undo things the mint maintainers did intentionally.
Mint not officially shipping with KDE is a source of my personal frustration. Would have checked it out more thoroughly otherwise.
Then you chose right! Regarding Ubuntu I have been using it for work VMs and it's adequate, my current annoyance is that you can't easily change the UI colours to distinguish different projects, because it's not the "Ubuntu way", maybe I'll find a hack.
Wayland
true
what do you actually need Wayland for though? waydroid is the only one i can think of
I have 2 monitors at different refresh rates
60hz graphics tablet and 144hz gaming trashitor running fine on nvidia. Graphics tablet didn't even need drivers installed and huion app launched every time unlike windows.
same and never had an issue with x11. two monitors at different resolutions and different refresh rates.
You haven't noticed the issue then. X11 tends to run everything at the lowest common denominator, and doesn't allow per-monitor scaling.
news to me as ive run this setup for 8 months now and it runs with 0 issues. one is always at 144 and other at 60. minor performance drop with both on at the same time although that's to be expected, but it definitely doesn't set them both to lowest denominator.
(I didn’t downvote you, just fyi, don’t know why someone would)
I personally have no issues with x11 if i’m using just one monitor, but if I use two or more I have nothing but issues. I am a tired sysadmin and don’t want to fight my personal equipment at home.
