feuerherz3655254dWindows isn't a free product. The jank it has is mostly bloat. Not necessarily some bugs we expect to have fixed for free. Thatswhy we should put up with it. Personally been using Mint for many years now without issues. And about that, i had plenty back on windows.

thebiochemic3012254dsounds more like a gnome thing than anything.
I have none of these problems, and i used both ubuntu versions you mentioned.
Only issue i have is that i need to restart budgie desktop every few weeks, since it's leaking memory somewhere. -
thebiochemic3012253d@dissolvedgirl had audio issues aswell with pulse audio and alsa. Switched to pipewire. Never had a single problem since.

creedasaurus62Another dev on my team just got a new machine. Before he came in today I made two separate USB installers and ...
It seems like very version of Ubuntu I use at work has jank. Ubuntu 18.04 would have file managers that just die. After locking/unlocking the screen it would move windows between monitors. One window would seemingly cause other windows to have discoloration and I would see phantom objects text overlaid with what looks like transparency. This was all Gnome. Lots of little quirks that I just got used to.
Now I am running 22.04 and while a lot of jank went away I am getting new jank. Every once in a while if I move a window or bring a window up after hiding the window. The window will oversize across the screen like I zoomed in. Noticing this with Firefox. It goes back to normal size real quick. But it is kind of wild. Jank that stayed is my external monitor I have attached through hdmi takes its sweet time to reactivate after being asleep. This might actually be a weird hardware issue. This is also Gnome.
I just find it wild that this jank is there and we are like: "Oh well. At least it ain't MS Windows jank..."
