For example, if I use only the super key to open the menu, then Firefox windows often pop up still, it’s just weird. (also I’m using the standard plasma panel, I don’t like Latte Dock)
Define anything. The Firefox snap is not a speed demon, Steam is not one either. Have you actually tried gaming? Have you looked at KSysGuard, Top or any other performance monitor app to see if you have any CPU/memory hogs around?
Are you on Wayland, because if yes I strongly suggest to go with X11 for stability in cases like yours. If you really want to distro hop, you could try Debian stable, because it’s still very close to upstream & is much newer than Ubuntu 22 right now.
I was like let’s just boot up a Neon Unstable usb & just see it for myself, but it’s not working, at least the live envo certainly doesn’t. Maybe I’ll try to install it in a VM later…
