What even is the best linux distro for laptops? I have always had problems with them and am considering going to a mac.
xubuntu: huge screentearing problems Solus: Lack of nvidia optimus support and bootup failures ubuntu: who the fuck likes the default distro. I tried. Also screentearing.
wtf do you guys use? Is it worth it anymore? Serious considering going to a corporate supported os system rather than a community of neckbeards working together to create an OS.

I run OpenSUSE on 2 laptops, previously used Fedora, was fine but disliked Gnome and the short support time.
Liam Jones
install gentoo
Luke Robinson

Zachary Williams
Isn't more like, I can't get the wild girls with issues to like me so I will go with the conservative Christian girl that has been raised strictly by her parents to settle down with.
Lucas Jackson
Just fix the screentearing...
Cooper Wood
If you have an Nvidia card on a laptop seriously stick with Windows. Your battery life will thank you. Linux is for no dgpu laptops only
Lucas Collins
Wayland? Pain in the ass to do. That also doesn't fix the individual applications itself, just specific ones you specify.

Ubuntu mate is basically xubuntu without screen tearing.
Jaxon Phillips
I have tried it, but mate is just so ugly.
Joshua Edwards
Do you even know who the CEO of apple is?
Grayson Powell
how about ones that don't have a gpu. Just an integrated gpu.
Jace Watson
they are all good on laptops
that's linux (refering to the kernel's) #1 selling point
Samuel Murphy
Should be a lot better since AMD and Intel have good open source drivers.
Carter Collins
>CEO is gay so the OS gender is a boy Do you know how retarded these hypotheticals are?
Logan Ortiz
The founder of Myspace and Facebook?
Adrian Anderson
Try out Manjaro, for XFCE use compton to get rid of the screen tearing or just get a different DE entirely and see how that works out.
William Gonzalez
Do you even know who the CEO of apple is?
Thomas Taylor
>#1 selling point >battery management is still ASS
Ethan Morris
The Dell XPS 13 Developer's Edition doesn't have this problem.
Bentley Cooper
Install Solus [spoiler]No seriously they literally came out with their own graphical switcher today[/spoiler]
I think it is that guy that makes those youtube videos and has fucked up teeth and looks like a methhead.
Camden Hall
install tlp and powertop, disable unwanted crap in powertop.
Done.
Hudson Murphy
My laptop is a dell xps 9360 though and I still get problems. What even is the default linux distro in the developers edition. Also :

Owen Parker
>inb4 you accidently delete something you needed in powertop
Sebastian Cook

Parker Jackson
The entire country of Israel.
Robert Morris
powertop only changes values, it doesn't create or delete anything
David Smith
So Solus, ubuntu, Manjaro, Deepin, Zorin, or Elementary?
William Lewis
All shit.
Hunter Hughes
KDE kills battery life fast. Not worth it.
Dylan Anderson
>muh tiling WM gets 13 minutes more battery!
Zachary Hill

Luke Edwards

Jace Mitchell
