OK, I believe that. I was using SuSE IIRC. What I can remember clearly was there was a very good reason I switched from KDE in SuSE to using GNOME in Ubuntu.

4-to-5, I think I had just switched from Debian Testing briefly to Manjaro, then Arch, and youā€™re right, it was OKā€“not nearly like 3-to-4 (Rodney got me worked-upā€“blame him).

I do know itā€™s a love-hate relationship with KDE that nearly exceeds that of my (present) marriage. :wink:

Back thenā€¦ there were very good reasons to switch from SuSE/opensuse to anything else.

Some of them arenā€™t valid no more, but they (SuSE/opensuse) created new ones!

This releaseā€™s key highlight is introducing initial OpenGL support in the Wayland driver. This development is a significant milestone, as it enhances the compatibility and performance of Windows applications that utilize OpenGL graphics, running under Linux environments managed by Wayland.

Although it is still in its initial phase, this development unlocks vast possibilities. For Linux users, it means broader access to many Windows-exclusive applications and games that rely on OpenGL for rendering.

Gamers, in particular, stand to benefit significantly, as many older and even some current games that utilize OpenGL can now run more natively on Linux without the need for complex workarounds or performance compromises.

There are many ways to ā€œgive backā€ to Linux, a philosophy that has survived since Linuxā€™ inception. There are many, many ways to get involved. Bug reporting is one of the most important and easiest ways for us to do so.

It gives a warm, fuzzy feeling inside. And that is great and will suffice (apologies to R. Frost.)

The actual birthday was much earlier, but the first official release of a functioning live ISO was in March 2020. Scholars are still arguing about the exact date. It will probably be 01.01.2020, which is roughly in the middle :slight_smile:

:rofl:
