I am seriously considering pulling the trigger on a switch to Linux. Looking for advice and discussion

In terms of hardware, what are some good cost effective resources and what what things might I want to consider differently than what I am used to in both the Mac and Windows worlds? I need smart home management, a plex hub, and photo editing, as well as the usual other stuff.

    The truth is that you have to chase wayland, because it is the future.

    Ahahaha nice one.

      I know, I know. Waylands breaks everythings, xorg just works, etc.

      But that’s the truth: Wayland is the way to go.
      Maybe in 2 or 5 years, but still the way to go.

      Development on that side should be encouraged. Xorg will not

      I myself use xorg on desktop and wayland on laptop. I know what I say.

        I swear I’ve been hearing that since Ubuntu first switched to wayland in 2017 (and then promptly reverted back to xorg)
