I wish that was the case, but it is not. Not for a designer anyway.
Also the SSD management on Ubuntu sucks. I know so, because 3 years ago I got burnt badly.
Currently I have a Windows laptop (Dell E5500) I’m working on that also runs a Xubuntu 20.04 on VirtualBox. But I am so done with Windows and Dell at the moment and I am getting an M1 MacBook Pro, as soon as possible.
Been using MacOS on and off for design work since the late 90s and I’ve also done some Dev work with Hugo and Python on a Mac in 2018-19.
The Mac is preferable than both Windows and Linux, for Dev work also -as far as I am concerned-.
The Linux desktop is basically a beta for the Ubuntu / Red Hat Server Products, there are bugs from ages ago. Xubuntu 20.04 is better than 18.04 but just yesterday when I updated the Linux headers I got the lovely useless System Error from Apport again that I used to see every day when on Ubuntu 16.04 (no time to troubleshoot and I don’t really care as it runs on VirtualBox).
No. I am afraid that Linux is not the way. I would love it to be the way and I invested quite a bit of time learning Linux, but it is not. At least until Linux comes pre-installed in dedicated devices.
I know there are a few of these workstations/laptops around, but not available in my parts of the planet.
Also design work for print on Linux is basically impossible. Except for Krita and Inkscape and maybe a little bit of the GMIC filters in GIMP, a designer has to use MacOS for all the cool stuff and the stability.
