It creates a flat network between all of your devices anywhere, so if you have a home server that you want to connect to from elsewhere you can do that without port forwards.

It boosts faster tho, so for average usage it might be fine. It just will have trouble with anything that requires sustained use, which for me would probably just be compiling code or games, things I wouldn’t try to do on a tablet.

What’s your use case? Maybe you would be better off with Tailscale or something like that

That’s an incredible price for 16gb of memory and a 512 ssd. Would be an upgrade from my 14" laptop. I just hope I don’t have to wait multiple years to get it.

Yes, it will get better over time. You are using an entirely new operating system. Things are different, but aren’t that hard to learn.

My big tip for installing Linux is to use the package managers when possible. Every distro comes with at least one package manager, which can install many pieces of software. On Ubuntu, there are two: snap and apt. (Yes, this is confusing. Canonical is trying to change the way they package software, and it has made their distro harder to use).

Also, what kind of software are you installing that requires different permissions or ports? If you’re trying to set up servers you many be better off with a different approach.
