I am fed up with this system.
It's not that I lost all my files the first time I installed Trisquel.
Because that was my fault. I took a risk and overwrote the wrong partition
while I was migrating from Windows. And I panicked and wasted money on
useless HP tech support instead of asking for help for free online.
It's not that upgrading from 5.5 Brigantia to 6.0 Toutatis resulted in
Blender ceasing to function. I didn't need Blender that much anyways.
It's not that I don't like GNU/Linux. I love it. I'm glad I made the change.
It's not that one day, out of nowhere, my system stopped booting, unlike any
responsible OS should ever do. Because I fixed that. And I made everything
fine. I could tolerate it.
I am leaving Trisquel because I was so gosh-darned excited about the new
release—and upgrading to it left my system in a state that was workable,
but with a mangled panel and text/colour rendering problems. Then I
downloaded the ISO and reinstalled the system entirely, only to find that it
wouldn't boot properly due to encryption—to boot, I had to enter an
incorrect username and password in GRUB, and then press enter after boot
hung, and then enter the password to encryption. And now, on my freshly
installed system, I am experiencing the same colour rendering problems as
with the upgraded system.
I can't take this anymore. I quit. I might be a programming student, but I
need my computer to be at somewhat user friendly. I won't say it's been
nothing but trouble since day one, since it's actually computed very well. I
will say that the problems are too frequent and often difficult to fix.
I still care about free software, so I'm taking my business to Debian now.
Goodbye.
