Smooth Performer on Older Hardware, Needs Gaming Improvements

I use Ubuntu for my daily tasks like programming, web surfing, emailing, and watching online videos because it runs smoothly and is a bit more lightweight than Windows on my old laptop. I appreciate that Ubuntu supports major applications, which is great for my productivity. I really like the theme and UI of Ubuntu; it feels modern with smooth animations. The UI implementation is really good. It supports almost all major software, like Chrome and Telegram, which boosts my productivity. I also learned Linux, and I find Ubuntu to be a really good OS. The initial setup was easy with plenty of tutorials and documentation available on the Ubuntu website and community.

Fast, Secure, and Intuitive with a Few Software Gaps

I prefer Ubuntu over Windows for its faster and secure performance, making my experience with the OS smooth, fast, and secure. What I like most about Ubuntu is its simplicity and stability. The UI is clean and easy to navigate, making it accessible for both beginners and advanced users. I really appreciate the security of Ubuntu, especially since the main tasks are done through the terminal, which feels secure and gives the impression of working with advanced technology. The activities overview and dock make managing windows easy, offering a Linux feel similar to MacOS. One feature I find useful is the additional Drivers tool that automatically detects and installs proprietary drivers for NVIDIA GPUs.

Efficient Scripting with User-Friendly Interface

I use Ubuntu for scripting purposes. I find its easy-to-use interface incredibly helpful, solving complex problems with small script codes, from bug fixing to compiling errors. The user interface is also attractive for programmers and developers, encouraging hands-on experience. What stands out most for me is Ubuntu's amazing processing computational power, which sets it apart. Additionally, having documented runbooks on the official sites makes the setup smooth without any hussles.
