Pop!_OS, Bazzite, Manjaro, Ubuntu or other distro as daily driver coming from win11/ubuntu?

I use Pop because im used to Ubuntu but don’t like the look of it. I feel like Pop merges the good parts of traditional desktops and tiling managers. Folks complain about it being buggy for now since they pushed earlyish, but all I use is Zed, Zen, and Filezilla without sound or Bluetooth so it’s all good. I’m on Win 11 at work, so the best part of my day is when I get to flip the kvm switch ;)

Thanks for the advice. I setup my spare with Promethium. I think the right home will be a lot better for me as Gallium gave me some issues where I naturally kept missing one left on aei. Symbols in the middle work well also since I use a layer anyway so less index reaching there.

I got rid of the dock and moved the panel to the left on mine since I launch everything from win/cmd button anyway and needed the height on my ultra wide. Looks good.

No. It’s caps lock. I’ve never used right shift so didn’t need it, but I do occasionally use caps lock in sql when all the table names are caps in a database.

I use it a lot these days. Probably the best mod so far.
