I’ve dabbled with Linux over the years, first with Ubuntu in the early 2010s, then Elementary OS when that dropped, and a few years ago I really enjoyed how customizable the gui was with Xubuntu. I was able to make it look just like WIndows 2000 which was really cool.

Which current distro has the best GUI, in your opinion? I find modern Ubuntu to feel a little basic and cheap. I guess I don’t really like modern Gnome. I’m currently using Windows 10 LTSC which is probably the best possible version of Windows, but I’d jump to linux if I could find a distro with a gui that feels at least as polished and feature rich as Windows 10 LTSC.

    Ubuntu Budgie

    • I like the aesthetics
    • I’m just to used to windows start menu/taskbar.
    • decently sized community and support

    Note: a lot of people seem to use the Mac inspired app dock and that seems to be the default. It’s customizable though so you can get a taskbar if you prefer that.

    I think the whole point of Budgie is to make the interface a little more welcoming if you are coming from Windows or Mac.

      I’ve really like Budgie the few times I tried it. If they can get Wayland working at some point in the future I’ll definitely try it again.
