I don't want to be rude, but "it's worked great" and "still some things I struggle with" need some clarification.


The things I struggle with are very niche, like remote desktop via pipewire over ssh.

Day to day stuff is way better than x11. Remember how much fiddling used to be necessary to configure x11 for your specific devices? I've never once done that and I don't miss it at all.

By the way, pipewire is amazing.

Er. No, I don't remember that. Are you talking about needing to make a xorg.conf once upon a time? Because that hasn't been generally needed for... over a decade? Maybe two at this point?


Me neither, and I had my first Linux machine in 2008. That was true maybe in 1995. Of course anecdotal evidence.
