Hey everyone, I'm diving into Linux and just got started a little while ago. I'm curious if there's a better way to manage my workflow for med school, particularly between Linux, Ubuntu, and POP!_OS with auto tiling features. Any advice on the best setup or tips for running it smoothly? I'm planning to test it on a flash drive before making a permanent switch. Thanks in advance!

MX Linux is an excellent option, especially for newcomers! The XCFE version is lightweight and fits easily on a 4 GB USB. Plus, it comes with solid documentation to help you get started. Definitely worth checking out!
It sounds like you're looking for a good workflow management system. If you're considering something more than just a traditional setup, you might want to explore a full tiling window manager like Hyprland, but if you're looking for something a bit simpler, Fedora KDE could be a great middle ground with its built-in split and quad pane capabilities. Plus, you could check out `krohnkite` for more automated tiling options if that interests you!
Have you thought about trying Arch? It’s quite popular among advanced users, just make sure to pick the right distro that matches your workflow in med school!
If you're transitioning from macOS, I'd recommend Fedora Workstation. It's user-friendly and a good fit for your needs. For Windows users, Fedora KDE offers a smooth experience. Just remember to follow a post-install guide for the best results! Also, just a heads up, some screenshot detection tools might not work on Linux; keep that in mind while studying!
I appreciate the suggestion! But I think I’ll stick with something more user-friendly for now.
