@blackops @alto Haha love it! I'll check out FreeBSD then, I promise! It's next on my list now. I remember feeling satisfied after successfully installing and tweaking Arch, and I used that for a good year before going back to Manjaro where I could still access the AUR for all my needs. But now I feel like I've learned a bit and satisfied a lot of my curiosities and just wanted something simple, effective (and pretty!) for daily use, and after seeing Pop!_OS on other computers I've used secondarily, I thought it seemed to surprisingly hit all those requirements, and I have it on my main laptops now (personal and work) and I just love it (and it saves me time as I don't break it haha). Actually got a batch of their (free!) stickers from their shop too; proudly displaying a System76 "Right to Repair" sticker -- and exactly: the right, and ease, to do so with System76, Framework et al is very much of the time ethically eh?
