You have to love autoincorrect. Cellphones get mad when you try to type bash. 

I think you need X11 to run compiz. It doesn't work with Wayland. I have a lot 
of fond memories of compiz.

Most people will suggest giving luddites ubuntu but honestly they eventually 
have issues with package conflict. I don't think that will get better until 
they get rid of PPAs. 

Fedora is much better at avoiding problems in between version upgrades.  

You should really consider a linux that uses ostree images to update the 
operating system rather than a traditional package manager if you want it to be 
problem free.

Project bluefin is the linux I've seen with the most focus on the framework 
hardware. It's a derivative of fedora silverblue so you have that corporate 
support plus community support from the bluefin developers. Two of the 
community supported distros on framework's website are from project bluefin. 
They have the specfic drivers for framework laptops included.

It's a nice project because you can use it like a chromebook for other folks 
computers that you support or you can use it for yourself to have access to all 
the packages in any distro. The rollbacks work perfectly. You can turn off 
automatic updates. You update the operating system image via a rebase rather 
than update the OS during runtime. 

It's a safer update mechanisim.

For package management I use a mix of flatpak, container images via distrobox 
and homebrew.

You can swap your desktop enviroment via images without having package 
conflicts like you would on a standard linux distro. On my laptop I swap in 
between DEs depending on if I am using a dock or not. That would totally cruft 
up an traditional linux distro.
