Hi,
I appreciate that you consider to dump the bloatware.
I recently installed Ubuntu 24.04, and also Ubuntu 25.10. And, unfortunately, I have to say, both versions have installation issues on my computer.
In the installer, when I select erase disk and install with LVM, the installer crashes and isn’t able to recover.
Also after the installation, I have graphic issues with the steam interface (only shows up when I run it from terminal) and sometimes the brave browser (snap version) just closes and nothing else happens.
As different distribution, I tried only cachy OS. Similar problems there.
Not sure if my AMD CPU is not compatible with the AMD GPU I recently bought… hmm… Thought the AMD drivers were already built-in in the kernel…
Well, to sum it up, I have problems with Linux I didn’t have half a year ago, and it may be hardware related. So expect to try some bugfixing…
Good luck.
