With “gave me the fewest issues” you probably mean stuff like screen tearing, flickering, etc.?
That’s because Pop ships with Nvidia drivers, which many other distros, like Ubuntu, often don’t do due to licensing.
As I said, it is pretty old and didn’t receive any bigger updates in the last 2 years.
The devs of Pop are currently very busy creating the new DE and don’t have much time left for their current distro.
Maybe check out something that’s more maintained. If you just installed it freshly, switching shouldn’t be a big issue. You can recreate everything Pop has on Fedora (uBlue silverblue-nvidia) or other Gnome based distros too and get the newest stuff, which will hugely increase the chances of everything working good with your setup.
What specific things do you like on Pop the most? Only the “just works”?
