2024 is the Year of Linux on the Desktop, at least for my boyfriend. He's running Windows 7 right now, so I'll be switching him to Ubuntu in a few days. Ubuntu was chosen because Proton is officially supported in Ubuntu.

This hasn't really been true with arch for years. As long as you update reasonably frequently. I haven't had a breaking issue in ages.
What were the issues you had that broke things?
Usually LibreOffice has issues. That could be because I use libreoffice-still as opposed to fresh. Then there's often file and dependency conflicts requiring manual intervention. The latter is usually documented here, I think, if it's expected. Oh, and protonvpn is absolutely broken every single time.
A little unrelated, but how come we're successfully federating with yiffit.net? We currently have broken outgoing federation. I checked sh.itjust.works, lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, lemmy.dbzer0.com and none of those show content from us anymore.
