I'm Looking forward to the new version. I did a new install this week of an EFL from I think around Feb 2023, which was pretty easy, as usual.
The hardest part being the time to copy over a wine folder.
The biggest issue I have with linux distros in general, is with lack of contrast between text and their backgrounds. This also happens in commercial products, for no good reason I can imagine. I try to keep monitor brightness low, to save on the eyes, making contrast pretty important.
A second text issue is size. One of my most often used tools lets you resize the gui, but I really want to be able
to, for example, open a plugin browser panel with text at 100% size, while the large main gui is at 70% to fit the screen.
And similar issues sometimes occur with border lines inside a gui being hard to see because someone thinks 1 pixel lines
in pale colors are trendy. I often use K3b, and it has one part I use a lot that is nearly untreadable, so I have to highlight all the text
to make sure I've got the right things listed. (first-world-problems )
Going to the search engines to find various graphic library themes with more optimal settings isn't much fun.
Nor is editing their config settings, if they can be located.
Thanks for sharing the results of your long hours of R&D! Looks like Another year without mac and win
