The problem with Linux : lack of guidance and too many egos fighting against each others.

Yeah it's one thing to have the variations on things but the amount of distro's is just mind-boggling.

There may be ones better suited to me than MX.. but I'm not going to try 50 distros to find out. MX seems fine for me, most problems seem to be addon software. Like Chrome and firefox just default to white everywhere and no idea why. Had to write patches for the colours to get it back to more like how windows has it. I'd rather not have a slab of white glare on my eyes all day. So toned a lot down a bit.
