@TechConnectify @DoubleA I get that but I disagree.Someone else point out "but the house is free" tongue in cheek but they're right.One one had you've paying for for software, and getting a terrible experience for the benefit of using the same thing every one else is.On the other, you've got _free_ software, also has mixed experiences, but isn't used by the majority of people but generally has a lot of documentation and discussion online.

@TechConnectify @DoubleA to put it another way, a real world example.1) A family member with a system76. They seldom ask me for help, often finding help online, and have had to call tech support several times. They're afraid of updates because they sometime break their system.2) A family member with a dell. They often ask me for help, tech support doesn't exist, they can't find support online, also afraid of update.The experience is similar, one side the operating system was free.

@jeff @BoydStephenSmithJr My feelings on Ubuntu/Pop are also nuanced. I hate their UI's but "worse" is pretty subjective. Debian suffers from a similar problem to RHEL that by the time a release comes out half the software is out of date. So... in a lot of ways Pop/Ubuntu are better.
