@davepl1968 Think Windows XP-ish. Pay X Dollars and use it. No bloat no ads no nothing. If you want to upgrade.....either pay a subscription constantly and upgrade when you ready......or purchase from upgraded version and reinstall from scratch.
No ads, no bloat, no crap just a CHOICE!!!!
@eevblog In this case there's a pretty clear winner. Not judging good, bad, or ugly.
As many people said, it is an individual thing......depending on use case.
@bekahj Here here!!! I used to spent between $150-$300 per month on coffee. Now I spend about $18.
Everyone can make changes if they want to......IF they want to.
Off the top of my head Ubuntu- GNOME, Kubuntu, Linux Mint Cinnamon, and Linux Mint Debian, all have pretty reasonable UI capabilities for power/ display management. I haven't used Fedora for years but I don't see why you would need the command line unless you had something really specific in mind.
I was able to find the letter Business Philosopher, Jim Rohn wrote to his wife after her passing. I was so grateful I wrote it down. The wording speaks volumes.
"Dear Judy,
As often as the night comes,
so does my sadness, as constant as the day arrives, so is my love for you. I wish for you & and I wish the best for you, and I understand that dilemma. The mixture of both love sadness startles me. My life is here where you touched me, if ever you should call I will be there to be touched again."
In my opinion their relationship must have been absolutely beautiful. They obviously had ups and downs, but the relationship was well grounded. As you said @antaylor6 "oh to have bliss and true love". I agree.
This was possibly about as close as one might get that.
A better real life relationship worth mentioning is Jim Rohn and his wife Judy. He held a seminar and part if that there was a topic that explained the importance of journalling. In that seminar he recited a letter he wrote to his wife after she passed away, to help with healing. That letter or part of it, clearly showed the type of relationship that had.
I'll try and find the text I did write it down at the time.

@antaylor6@art_muse@elonmusk Re-watched a show recently I hadn't seen for about 7 or 8 years. The characters had the same kind of relationship. Their on screen presence was magnetic.
As you mentioned.......if only π€
@antaylor6@art_muse@elonmusk The show was Castle. There was apparently, a lot of behind the scenes clashes, but the on screen relationship was always there. There was a level of trust early on and it got deeper as time went on. But the writers kept throwing a little more depth in as time went on.
