Thanks for this! These are my two favorite distros. I've been going back and forth on each of them. I'm using Pop at the moment but will probably jump ship back to elementary when Odin comes out.

How have things changed under a year.. that warning on Audacity was and is appropriate.. :)

You're awesome! I cant stop to watch your videos.

Can you tell me why everytime i turn on my laptop I have a system update, Im talking everyday.

[kravmaga]

elementryOs was my fav and installed on my desktop, Ideacenter, and old laptop. BUT i recently switched my desktop to POP Os and am loving it so far.

Which has the best hardware support? I have a quirky Fujitsu T347 laptop/tablet hybrid. Can't get all the features to work with Mint.

Pop os all day but I like the Mac feel to elementary os but you can give pop os the same feel with gnome tweaks

[Blueeeeeee]

I'm back ! Glad to see this DistroWars out, I was waiting for it to happen :3
What about Zorin vs Elementary for the next one ? Both are good and modern replacements for Windows and Mac, respectively.

Edit: btw Elementary OS 6 will soon be out and I'm pretty sure it will have a lot more customizability.

Did I spy an email client on Elementary that isn't Thunderbird? An actual dexktop email client seems rudimentary to me.

So APPARENTLY IM HAVING a hard time installing pop os, always ends up failing due to hardware error, ive tried several times using rufus and etcher but still didn't work, im trying this one last time until i consider using elementary os,

[CristianMolina]

PopShop : "definitely an infinitely better choice than Elementary Store" ?! they looks basically the same! PopShop is a fork of Elementary Store (actually they both collaborated in the dev). How is PopShop sooo much better? (non native, non PopOS user)

POP OS is a addicting environment. doesn't run diablo 3 so need the new windows lol .

[MyAtaba]

The Pop Shop is a fork of Elementary store

[vinick]

Elementary OS is the best, runs smoothly on Old Apple Hardware... been using since Elementary Loki 0.4...Pop-whatever Gnome Desk is not a match for Pantheon Desktop...

[shooksnc]

QT and the C library is hard to use .... i dont use KDE . so gnome .NET / cinnamon maybe openbox

[NadeUp]

12:40 exactly, I am using elementryOS and the first thing that came to mind was... Well linux is just as intrusive as windows. Even tho that is not true but that was my fist reaction.

[perdomot]

I like both but PopOS is slightly better for me.

[motoryzen]

6:00 ..this is what I cannot stand about gnome desktop...no way to pin/put anything I want on the top panel and move it to the bottom where I like it ( unlike in xfce, mate and cinnamon where I can customize the crap out of it), and the time and date are right in the damn middle in the way where I don't want it.

[sekhar]

I suggest u to use elementary first and then compare it to pop os. Becoz u have give no insight other then giving Ui and Think before u make videos.... I expect better from you

[hammadsultan]

What should I install at a 32 bit system please help
