I started with Ubuntu and slowly tried getting used to Gnome over the course of a few months (mainly using windows, every now and then hopping into Ubuntu when not gaming). I learned of KDE, tried it in Kubuntu, and it all instantly clicked for me. I switched over in about a week and haven't had much reason to boot Windows since.

It turned out that front-facing experience was incredibly important to me.

What do you mean by front facing? Like the DE is the FrontEnd?

Depends which way you are oriented. Sometimes I will work from behind the monitor to really get into the back end

Boy, do I have the product for you

It is I just think I found the sentence a little confusing

Got Ubuntu because all I wanted was to play/mod games and watch videos..... and Windows 10 totally shit the bed. Constantly on the green loading screens.

I'm so lost with installing, directories, hidden directories, learning how to uninstall things I can't find in directories I can't find. It's a massive headache and steep learning curve.

Still haven't really played a game yet that can't run on Ubuntu natively, and it's still better than Windows 10.
