I am not bad with computers and have a beginner+, maybe intermediate level knowledge of Linux and I kept running into some problems here and there with different distros. Most claimed to work out of the box (which may be the case for some users, but I have a shit ass Nvidia 1060 and that was not at all the case, until I installed Nobara KDE/Nvidia.

Just came here to potentially save someone time, this shit is actually working out of the box, closest experience to this was with Arch, but that’s definitely not out of the box.

            For one it does everything custom compared to stock

            It isn’t bad for a rescue system or a custom USB but I would not daily drive it and I would not recommend it over Linux Mint or Fedora

              I daily drive it just fine and I don’t really think your opinion is well informed. It sounds like you had trouble with some part of it and now you’ve written it off completely. But the numbers don’t lie- it’s a very popular distro and very stable.

                I also don’t want a system with tons of junk installed. MX has to many tools to be useful and most of them aren’t even the best for the job not to mention its lack of systemd by default kind of sucks.

                I really don’t get why it is better than Debian with xfce4
