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.
Apps, always with apps, most app in ubuntu store are not the latest version, nor reviewed or crypto signed for safety. Then you still have to deal with RPM or Deb or flatpack …
There is no good frontend for the clamav antivirus that is maintained! yes we may not need an antivirus but if you want one, you have to go command line. As an old ace developer, this is not an issue for me, but yeah at home I don’t want to use that knowledge nor can recommend linux to newbies.
Maybe a easy to use frontend for docker app is missing (nono I use portainer) but something more easier like the defunct CasaOS for beginner to install decentralized apps is also something that could promote Linux a lot. Ubuntu could also hide docker app in its store, just telling users that they should not let their notebook or computer go to sleep if they install server app like immich or jellyfin
