Zorin OS is the way to go if you are sticking with the Debian/Ubuntu family. It’s basically the Mac OS of Linux distributions, by shipping with a level of polish that other distributions don’t deliver. To me this means I did zero tinkering out of the box to have the experience I wanted after spending a day configuring KDE in other distributions any time I did a reinstall. As far as printers go, they have always been hit or miss, but my problems were solved by disabling IPv6 on my local network.

Only downside of load balancing is differences in admins and federation.

Popcorn shrimp for popplers!

I’ve bounced around Fedora, Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Mint over the years. I’ve been on Zorin OS going on two years and I’m eagerly waiting for 17 to release. I don’t see myself hopping anytime soon.

You can transfer your domain if you act fast, it takes a few days. You may have to pay again on the new registrar though.

While I haven’t tried symphony, my annoyance with PHP in general is that parsing any kind of data is tacky. In the end you end you have just as many lines as python but less readable.

Cleaner functions or cleaner data? Both languages have their strengths and can (now) be typed.

I’ve got a couple next cloud instances running on Vultr. Highly recommended to host on a cheap service on SSD storage.
