       @itsfoss Currently transitioning from Kubuntu to MX Linux for no systemd or snaps.

       @itsfoss Or migrate to a new distro. I just moved to to MXlinux 25 with KDE from Kubuntu on my desktop after testing MXlinux 23 with XFCE on my laptop. I'm not happy with the direction the *buntus are going with systemd and snaps. I also may be a bit biased as a former Mepis User. Otherwise, I've enjoyed my time on Kubuntu. Choice is the main point of linux. Use whatever you want or roll your own if you're motivated. But we all know good programmers are lazy.

       @gamingonlinux One of the coolest things (at the time) was my shotgun modem for which I had 2 dialup lines. Not only did I have twice the bandwidth of most people,  it kept me out of trouble with my wife who could now reach me when I was on the computer. The modem would drop one line to let the call through. But, after the call was over, I had to restart the modem to use both lines again.
