I faced this without an OS installed, my storage wasn't encrypted. Something to do with orangefox, because twrp worked normally.

Schitt's Creek

UI is fine... UX is a few good steps backward

Woops sorry I think I replied to the wrong comment. Lawnchair is pretty great, but I shifted to Neo where at least the community is a little active.

I really like having a plain home screen that I can put widgets onto, so that leaves Niagara out

I actually gave this a go (or 6, over the past year) but it was a bit too radical for my taste

Every UI setup change needs a launcher restart to take effect

This came installed with my rom too, but I really need the option to sort the app drawer into categories or folders

Severe inconsistent quality issues in both software and hardware, treating their customers as beta testers, random motherboards dying, etc.

They are still riding the 'flagship killer' wave, but they are just as overpriced as Samsung, while offering unfinished products.

Wouldn't recommend Oneplus anymore.

At the high end, Samsung has been pretty solid with their S lineup. The FE models are a good compromise as well. Pixels are a hit or miss, I'd recommend waiting for issues to surface before deciding on the 8/8 pro.

On the more budget - midrange side of things, Motorola has been doing a fairly solid job. They do have a lot of models, so some youtube videos should give you a fair idea on what's right for you.

Oh damn. It was at auto, which I assumed was 100% (the lowest value)

I set it to 100 manually and it looks a lot better, thanks!

The UI is horrendously large on my 14 inch 1080p display too

Can you elaborate about Element/Matrix?

A good general rule of thumb is to avoid the E and L series, and stick with the X, T or P series, or the X1 Carbons. Depending on your use case, choose one with the processor and display you want.

I have a T460 with linux on it that I use for work and it has been rock solid even when I spilled coffee on it.

I'm losing it in the hospital corridor lmao

Maybe I should re-watch this. It has been a while...

I love The Godfather. But I don't get the hype behind Pulp Fiction. It's alright I guess

Would suggest jellyfin over Plex due to the latter's increasing corporate greed.

• Radar - for movies
• Sonarr - for series
• Prowlarr - for indexing

Optional:

• Jellyseer - a nice frontend for the above
• Bazarr - subtitles

This is a super simplified list, but the wikis are easy enough to get started with.

Edit: cjf has listed some useful links for the same
