And, of course, huge props to @Canonical because Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, which Pop!_OS is based on, is a work of art (and by that I mean blood, sweat, tears, and years upon years of not quitting and iterating.)

Sounds fantastic. I'm interested in knowing your opinion regarding
@elementary OS if you've tried it before. -
Love the project. Great focus on an everyday OS (check out our “friends” section on https://ind.ie ) ;) What’s great about Pop!_OS is that it also has a singular focus: developers. And it’s being built by an audience designing for themselves.

Sorry Aral, I forgot to thank you for answering and sharing!

No worries, man :)

Really nice. Reminds me of
@elementary OS. I had installed that for a nieghbor and it was really nice. Like that it's dev focused. I want to get away from Microsoft, but haven't had the time/enough determination lately to do it...elementary gave me bigger motivation to do it tho. -
Uses bits of Elementary. Based on Gnome Shell. Really lovely curation. This makes me very very excited and fills me with hope :)
-
I'm also intrigued by PureOS too - that looks really nice from the screen shots and videos I've seen of it. I am getting closer to the point of jumping in....Thank you for sharing your experiences. The more ppl I see on it more enthusiastic I am. Are u gonna switch 100% from Mac?
-
Not 100% as we have an app to support on macOS & iOd and an ecosystem doesn’t exist yet that covers all devices (equivalent of iCloud) but I’m going to switch my main development machine. That way I can also try and contribute.
-
That makes sense. That's a similar direction I've been contemplating. Esp cause there's no PhotoShop on the distros I've been looking at. And not really a fan of Gimp in comparison for layout design compared to PSD either (tho it's been a while since I/we've looked at Gimp).

How’s the third party app quality? (And has anybody fixed the fscking atrocious Linux graphics and audio stacks yet?)
-
Sadly, not yet by what I saw from the store. However, that means that there’s opportunity for someone to (hint, hint) ;) The amount of progress here by the Canonical, Gnome, Elementary, & System76 folks is astounding. Also see where the Purism are going & even Dell with the XPS.

How is the experience compared to ElementaryOS?
-
Different target audience (developers). Really hits the nail on the head :)
-
Awesome! Will try it then.

It’s one of their lovely default ones to go with the theme of exploration :)
