So, this sucks. On Mint, Firefox was running super sluggish to the point of being unusable. I reinstalled Ubuntucinnamon because I enjoyed using it when I had it installed, but between me last having it installed and now there seems to have been an update that has broken cinnamon’s system tray. Which, for me, is a major functionality.

I really don’t want to twiddle my thumbs waiting and trying to figure out why shit isn’t working right, but I really do like the cinnamon de. ugh

ideas?

    Well, the Mint install was doing that from Fresh. More concerned with ubuntu cinnamon though as I prefer it. Both times I attempted an install on that were from freshly formatted drives and the only things I had installed was steam and discord. Still the only things I have installed really. First install was from a 22.04 iso image and then upgraded from the desktop to 23. Second attempt was with an actual 23 image. It was broken right out of the box.

        Between a 1-5 second delay before anything internet related would start loading. So, I’d wait the 1-5 seconds and then it would actually start loading content.

          Content as in within the web-browser? So maybe it’s a Firefox issue? Or are you talking about something else?

                Yeah, I think I’m throwing in the towel with ubuntu cinnamon. There are more and more bugs popping up now. I don’t know how in the world it was so stable before and now it’s a fucking mess.

                So if that issue is still there on Mint I guess we’re about to find out.

                EDIT: And I’m back and the Mint issue persists. sigh
