After reading about how to get a distro running on wsl I'm reluctant to try it. It seems complicated and trouble prone. Still someone recently posted here that they got EndeavorOS working well on wsl. I've been trying EndeavourOS as a VM in Virtualbox and I like it a lot. It's based on ArchLinux, so you have to learn to use pacman instead of apt-get, and you have to install more things yourself, but even with that learning curve I prefer it to Mint, which was my previous favorite.
Whichever distro you choose, I like the Cinnamon desktop manager much better that the new Gnome that Ubuntu and many of the others use. On Sunday, October 13, 2024 at 10:11:59 AM UTC-4 Edward K.
