    I hate making video that come off as negative, but ultimately I would love for Ubuntu to succeed and have it as one of the options that I’m able to recommend to anyone no matter your skill set. In the current state I cannot recommend Ubuntu as a desktop operating system to anyone. It really sucks because Ubuntu is how I and may others started out with Linux, I just wish it was up to par with some of the other options we have.

    I've switched to Ubuntu after hovering around with popOS, Fedora and Arch. My main problem is usually the proprietary Broadcom network board in my laptop which works perfectly in Ubuntu. The first thing I did was to uninstall the snap store and replacing it with the gnome software center with flatpak and snap plugins (I don't use snaps unless there is no alternative). I've had a fairly good experience until now but I dodged the snap bullet since the beginning so that might have been an important part. Good Video 👍

    I've tried Ubuntu as that was my first Linux experience and had a lot of issues getting some things to work with the hardware I had. The DisplayLink drivers were rather painfully slow and sluggish, the wireless kept dropping despite the updated drivers for those and the random kernel panic when the Ryzen chip wanted to power down for C1 states. Eventually, I moved over to Fedora which worked out of the box with only the DisplayLink not working but a bit of Googling managed to get this back up whilst the Ubuntu side was filled with a lot of 'do this, should work, oh, it didn't, what now?'
    I think the key point is to try out all the Linux distros until you get one that works with the hardware you wanted irrespective of what the communities tell you.

That said, since I switched to Linux as my primary OS I have largely used Arch based distros running KDE Plasma, and currently that's Gruda. Yes, I love it. My secondary boot option is Pop!OS and I didn't really have any negative to say about it, just not my distro of choice. Consequently, I recently (in last 2 weeks) stopped running Fedora 36 on Gnome. And I shared that because you and other Linux distro reviewers keep talking about how great Fedora is and I found it to be, well.....okay, but nothing that impressed me. I am planning on installing Fedora 37 with KDE Plasma to see if I'm any more impressed. Last point, I would still choose Ubuntu proper over Fedora running Gnome.

    I've been running ubuntu 20.04 LTS on my main computer for two years now, been working great and rock stable. I will however not be upgrading to 22.04, too many times have LTS upgrades broken something and prevented me from doing work.
    I have fedora 36 running on my gaming computer, and while I've still not managed to get smooth 4k web video playback to work on it, apart from that it's been working great. I'm fond of both ubuntu and fedora. Ubuntu because in the decade I've been using it, I can install an LTS on my work machine and have it be stable and reliable for 5 years, and fedora for the cool new features such as btrfs. Plus both apt and dnf use very similar syntax which is very convenient

    I run Kubuntu 22.04 on my desktop pc. It is very stable. If you find yourself using Gnome extensions, I think you'll find similar functionality in KDE widgets, and they come baked into the.desktop environment. I've installed it boot & root on zfs, which takes some effort, but worth it for the ability to roll-back changes. I'm using Pipewire & Jack, which play nicely with Audacity, but not with Zoom. I recommend not using snaps because of performance penalty and using flatpak apps where available, which reduces app dependencies on the OS.

Replacing pulseaudio with pipewire and switching to linux-zen kernel fixed these issues for me. I also have to disable TPM in the BIOS since it seems to be causing random freezes too. TPM is needed for Windows 11 but not on Linux anyway. Upping the useable GPU memory of my APU to 8GB in the BIOS also made gaming & media consumption much smoother! 👍

    As some one who switched from Ubuntu to Fedora a few months ago. I'm currently kinda mixed about Ubuntu, it is kinda fast but how you set up your system determines your performance. Like I didn't use snap packages (and I still don't), not because I heard that it's slow (like most people would say) but I just liked to install packages through its default package manager and through Debian files. And I removed a ton of stuff that I personally felt like I wouldn't need like Libre Office.
    Now that I've been using Fedora for the past few months. I'll say that I enjoy using it more than Ubuntu. Because it is faster than Ubuntu, and there isn't too much useless stuff that I wouldn't need. And it just seems like a better distro for me, when I'm programming something random, playing a Linux compatible game, or just learning some more Linux (I would mostly do that on an old laptop that I like to use for experiments).

  • @jongeduard

    I can confirm that I am using the weather and other extensions without any issues on my Fedora system and almost without issues on an Arch Linux system (on two different computers, with modern hardware). Both of these distros have continued to deliver updates for GNOME after the release of ubuntu earlier this year.
    So the problem really is ubuntu here: because it is an LTS release, it gets a lot less actual improvements until the next release (other than security bug fixes).
    Meanwhile the extension developers of course continue to develop for newer versions of the GNOME desktop, and probably tend to pay less attention to older desktop versions like the one on ubuntu.
    Luckilly the desktop is also more complete with the really nice extra theming improvements over the vanilla version (so that is a good thing), so extensions are a bit less of a need, but after a few years, things will get more and more outdated and adding things gets a something I would really eventually still want to do.
    Like you say, ubuntu is super great when comes to the server. Not the desktop anymore. But yeah, the company it's mean goal is rather everything with servers and clouds, so that's not a surprise.
    But, version 21 10 was even more drama and a lot has been fixed in 22 04.
    Also, it must be said that a lot of performance the Firefox snap performance issues have been succesfully fixed by updates. So that's worth noting.

    had an issue with ubuntu the other day and the fix was so weird, but before the fix it was driving me crazy and i was for the first time really considering switching distro to manjaro, but when i got it fixed, it was fixed and i saw no reason to do the switch, mainly because, if i did switch i know there is gonna be SO much work in setting everything up, i'm running custom audio drivers, a lot of customization on OBS and just in general a lot of customization on this entire setup.. this is probably why i should change, cause i don't think ubuntu works well with customization, customizing your ubuntu setup is usually when the system starts to show weird errors and such, but if you can use ubuntu as is, then i think it's a great choice, if all you need is what you get.
    i'm sticking with ubuntu for now, mainly because my kid's PC's are running ubuntu as well and i know my self too well, if i switch my own setup out with manjaro i'm gonna get confused with the different commands and what not in terminal and end up switching their's out with manjaro as well (which btw is a good way to learn, doing things 3 times instead of just once).

Then I switched to Arch, loved it but eventually came to Pop!_OS which by that time felt better than Ubuntu and overall felt like a really great distro. Most recently, like two weeks ago, I've made the switch to Fedora 36 and couldn't be happier, it works great out of the box, it has everything I need, it is stable despite being considered bleeding edge distro, but most importantly - worked so well that I've finally made the switch from Windows, if before I was using Linux on and off when I was pissed off at windows, now I don't even have Windows installed on my PC because even working in game dev feels great on linux.

    I have used various versions of Ubuntu over the years. Except for gaming and the occasional audio issues, it was mostly running fine. Some of the desktops did start to bother me. How Unity does things down the left was useful for me what productivity concerns. A few years ago, I tried Pop! OS for gaming reasons and sometimes had better FPS than in Windows.
    Then Pop! OS had a major shutdown issue which was related to the timer and an infinite loop when MariaDB is installed. Since I develop, this was not good. That issue turned out to be present in Ubuntu and was actually a Debian problem that Ubuntu is based on.
    My laptop has been running Fedora for more than a year. Gnome was a bit slow on it, so I started looking at tiling window managers like i3 and Sway. That setup works wonderfully on my laptop. My main PC has had a fresh Garuda Linux installation a bit more than one week ago. Brave installed this annoying speech adapter which needs to learn about shutting up.

    1) Ubuntu didn't want to wake up from sleep mode properly under the Wayland with Nvidia drivers while it didn't go to sleep mode under Nouveau driver. Ridiculous). Issue had gone after some updates.
    2) Krita, GIMP, Lollypop, Kdenlive and some other apps should be installed from Flatpak. Not even because Flatpak is better - just because they are being outdated on Snap.
    3) Recall should be installed directly from it's repository.
    4) You are right as far as extensions settings concerned. I can say that they are available under X11 windowing system.

( I use X-11, so I don't know if wayland is fine though on 22.04) Only problem I had was when I logged in it was by default opening on an overview, so I downloaded an extension "no overview at start up" and it is perfect now.
    When I checked on "logs" on 20.04, I had always the same 2 important messages but on 22.04.1 I have 9 messages (edit, I only have 7 now, I just rechecked). I don't know really if it affects anything because I have zero problems using 22.04.1
    I have multiple extensions and nothing freeze. Could be a specific extension that you are using that bug your system and/or your wayland.
    For the desktop environment, I wouldn't recommend Gnome on Ubuntu to beginners, though. Unless someone shows them the tweaks and the extensions for a better and simple use or how to add like cinnamon desktop environment instead of Gnome, I wouldn't recommend it to a beginner. If someone knows already how to tweak and the extensions needed for a better experience, I think Ubuntu 22.04.1 is the best.
