PopOS is a great distro! It’s pretty stable, comes with easy full disk encryption and backup partition out of the box, and just works. I agree with the criticism of calling cosmic v1 already, but I disagree that it’s that bad. I daily drive it and rarely have issues, it’s missing some features I expect in a mature DE though.
It’s fast, it’s stable, it’s beginner friendly, and it’s a perfectly fine distro.

Really? All the linux vet YouTubers have run into countless really really bad bugs when using cosmic. I dont think its anywhere near stable. I have nothing against pop, my only issue is them shipping cosmic to early with no disclaimer or warning.

My wife is my barometer for how beginner friendly any tech is. She had zero issues adapting to popOS. She had many issues when I tried to force Slackware on her.
