Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.
Daily usage? I have some audio issues. It “feels” like the whatever resets/reinitializes. Really quickly though, playback isn’t being interrupted. Sometimes it switches to a dead output channel though and I have to reset it to the actually connected output. Too lazy to diagnose it.
As a longer standing point of annoyance, I find it very difficult to quickly go UI -> package name -> bug tracker -> bug report. For understandable reasons devs don’t exactly advertise their bug trackers, they’re always a bit obfuscated and have some barriers.
Color management continues to not work correctly, although that may be due to some x11 wayland conflict. I have a dark color theme preference and certain applications that aren’t directly available as package, but e.g. via flatpack don’t integrate well. Gnome calendar is something I can name, without wanting to blame the devs of that piece of software in particular. They’re doing their best, it’s not a priority, maybe not even an issue on their preferred config.
I also have some freeze crashes, although that’s more recent, might be a harddrive/hardware issue that throws off something very low level. But the reboot is so quick I barely mind that.
