Linux Desktop Question:
I currently use a Mac, but I'm thinking my next machine might be a desktop. There's no way I'm gonna use Windows so that means Linux.
I'd like Distro recommendations.
My applications:
1. Brave
2. Thunderbird
3. VSCode
4. Libreoffice
5. Terminal
6. CPU & Memory meters in the top bar
My requirements:
NO BUGS, absolutely not one single bug. I will move heaven and earth to get the thing setup right, but I will not tolerate one single screw-up, no apt-get dependency conflict fuckery, nothing.
I'm open to minimalistic UIs like XFCE or LXDE if they can deliver no bugs. I need control+tab and control+tilda for switching windows.
Any recommendations?
