I've just spent the last 6 hours troubleshooting steam input on 3rd party flatpaks, also alacarte has a bug that doesn't let you save property changes, also I can't use vim as root anymore for some reason I don't care to look into, also symlinking some of my media was a pain. Band-aid solutions have been found for the first 3 and the last was me being an idiot and not having a GUI solution to symlinks because Nautilus is arse compared to ms file explorer.

I fucking hate pop-os and flatpaks, cosmic launcher is a pile of junk, and my 4k monitor has created an infinite amount of scaling issues to work through.

Windows was a slow burn of minor inconvenience, Linux is a series of kicks in the nuts.

This is exactly why I'm not using windows on this box. Too much hassle.

I suppose you could just use arch Linux to get away from pop-os and flatpaks.
