A bit late, no?

Rules are rules. Nothing you can do once that happens.

Is it related to real time kernel performance or libraries?

So do I. It sits in its vm jail and does its job, or I roll back the snapshot

People who do this are heroes!

I fully appreciate people who put themselves out like this, especially in subjects which don’t necessarily have a wider reach.

Thank you all, no matter your accent.

A lot of distros have live images. For testing, just create usb thumb drives containing the live image you want to test, and boot from that.

Alternatively go the virtual machine route above.

As for kde - I personally think it’s too busy, but if you enjoy customisation, then It’s a great desktop.

I have been using mint cinnamon on my main machine for about a decade. Not as fancy as kde, but solid.

If you just want an easy life, then mint kde or cinnamon or Ubuntu. Run the live images or test in virtual machines first to match your preferences.

Actually you could do both. Create a vm and point the boot device to a live usb image, so you don’t even require a thumb drive!

Just too early for their office diver as the wife won’t allow me to buy two within a month.

That ended much better than initially anticipated. Thanks.

… for now.

Moving the needle is so satisfying

Thanks for the education, and no worries! We all get a bit cranky sometimes.

Off to do some research!
