Haven't paid much attention to this side of things, but this will definitely be an important goal to reach

I use Linux mint on my old Thinkpad and for the most part it works great. I use Kubuntu on my desktop. Asides from from weird hardware issues I had when initially setting it up, works great as well (Wayland too).

I agree with others: Linux mint, fedora, Ubuntu. Honestly, whatever gives you the least number of issues

Is this going to be a truly new key or just a shortcut?

I didn't think that the market share was actually changing much? Like it's low but it's still used, especially on Linux workstations with nothing else pre-installed

I spent 3 days trying to get manjaro to work on my old macbook air 3, and still ran into a borked display sometimes after opening from sleep

I installed endeavour os (online failed, offline worked), and so far I haven't had a single major issue with it

This is the unfortunate truth. Mathworks tools are heavily used in the engineering space, so it's an obvious choice for academia to teach.

As much as I try to get my company off of Matlab/Simulink, it's a challenge. Just so much legacy already written in it

Wow that's a long time! I think I'm gonna go ahead and try it

Nothing's gonna be perfect for everyone 👍

My team practices rebasing instead of merging, but generally our tasks are pretty separate so conflicts are uncommon. The ones that we do have are not that big.

However I am anticipating more of them now that we're changing build systems
