MX Linux 21 vs Linux Lite 6.0: My thougts so far

[Valtam]

The Bad:
The update indicator sucks in Linux lite, It's always there and never goes away.
Plus the indicator does nothing, why can't I install updates via the indicator? After getting used to getting updates via the indicator icon, this feels so archaic and out of place.
Plus it doesn't hide itself, I used so many flavors of Linux that change the icon of the update notifier, so I know what to expect... but here?
Nope.
I used MX, Mint, even arch using pamac notifications, this indicator is next to useless.

...why can't I install updates via the indicator? - Because if the text is greyed out, there are no updates to install. If you want to request additional features, contact the developer here - https://screenshots.debian.net/package/p...-indicator

The Ugly:
The way I have to install Firefox, honestly I know why Linux lite ditched Firefox thanks to it now being a snap, but it's in a PPA now, I think Linux lite should enable the PPA by default in the next revision.
I know this was beyond Linux lite's control but still it annoys the crap out of me, I hope there is a better way to do it in the future without so much hoop jumping.

Anyhow, with that said Linux lite so far seems to be a good distro for this machine, I am still having a few issues but will bring those up later when I have the time.
My goal was to evaluate first, then do problem-solving later.

Browsers are subjective. Our target audience are Windows users. I expected to cop some flack from existing linux users but it doesn't bother me. I did go to the trouble of giving extensive details in the release announcement on ways to install Firefox. They're just as guilty of dubious practices as Google is, especially in the last few years. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. We'll remained focused on our target audience.

Thanks for the feedback.
