I have installed zorin on another pc and it worked okay, but I wanted to try kde for the customization as well. I will probably try fedora kionite next and if that doesn't work i don't know.

    I chose to use opensuse tw kde based on some vm tests. The installation was easy but for some reason the video playback on youtube is terrible. It stutters. First thing I did after install was to use opi to install codecs. Then I used Yast to get the Nvidia repo. Lastly, I used the software manager to install the video g06 driver.

    To be honest I am happy using Windows 10 but I wanted to try Linux again because of the privacy and security, but there always seems to be something whenever I try to use linux. Should I keep using Windows or try a different distro?

    My specs:

    1080ti, ryzen 2600, msi b450 tomahawk.

    Update: It was the secure boot setting. Nvidia drivers don't work with it on I guess. Thanks for all the other information though, more to look into.

     

    So far I am really liking FreeTune as an alternative to UBO. However, my family really hates it. One of the reasons for this is because it doesn't have a recommended vidoes section. Is it possible to download an addon for that, or is there an alternative to FreeTube that works more like YouTune?

    Another thing that I can't seem to find a solution for is that when you use an external player from FreeTube, some age restricted videos won't play on the external player. Is there a solution for this?

    Any help is appreciated, thanks for reading.
