I’m feel you’re jumping right into the problem from some tutorial or not-so-common knowledge. We do not have that context.

Is “x11-user” defined anywhere? sddm must know what to do with that setting.

At least I wait for it on company time.

You think I didn’t?

And yes, the story above was about getting them all up to Win11. It’s sad that IT-illiterates see “let’s do what M$ says” as the only option wrt security.

I remember that too! My crappy old computer. I bought the cheapest SSD they had and it was so much faster.

And I’ve been thinking about the latter too.

BTW I truly hope your Windows takes 5min for a cold boot, and not your Linux, because that would mean there’s something wrong with it or the hardware.

WINDOWS 11 IS GREAT IF YOU DONT VALUE YOUR TIME

Even with that caveat I wouldn’t agree.

But there’s something to it.

For me, a decade of Linux user, having been forced to work with a bunch of Windows laptops recently, even the difference between 10 and 11 was palpable. Not only in resource usage but also in just getting around the system, running updates, trying to disable the stock ticker (?WTF?) etc.

I’m glad this is getting at least a few upvotes.

You can still play around with it, but the base should be boringly solid and widely compatible.
Then make it unique.

And I don’t mean to say that distro developers or even users shouldn’t be creative.
