I've actually been using Bazzite-gnome-nvidia image on my main desktop for the past few weeks and I have to say it's very slick.

My main issue with it is with scaling disabled everything seems slightly big or spaced out in comparison to when I ran windows? I've read up and it maybe has something to do with the default fractional scaling but I checked and I'm at 100%.

Other than that I'm very happy with it!

Ubuntu 10.10 was my first linux. Though 11.04 was released soon after my switch.

My first experience with 10.10 was as a virtual machine on my school issued Dell Latitude D505 laptop with Windows XP, a dual core 32-bit processor and 512 megs of RAM. And boy, let me tell you, it ran like shit. But I knew that it was because I was virtualizing it and didn't hold that against it.

I can't remember what it was called, but I eventually installed this OS on my flash drive that was meant to be eco-friendly for old devices. It had a very green wallpaper. And just used that instead of ever booting into windows by changing the boot order and leaving the flash drive plugged in at all times.

Edit: I remember now. It was called Watt OS.

I'm helping!

Just put Mint on my 2-in-1! So far so good, except my volume buttons don't work, and I have to manually toggle the on screen keyboard for text entry if I detatch the keyboard cover.
