There is a place where Elementary users can ask their questions and usually get answers pretty quickly. Doesn't limit you in terms of desktop environments or graphical servers (X, Wayland). The design approach of the development team focuses on elegance, code correctness, minimalism, and simplicity, and expects the user to be willing to make some effort to understand the system's operation. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean it's easy. Elementary does not offer any release date for their stable releases going more with an "it's done when it's done" attitude. You get superiority and get called smart daily for going through the processes of punishing yourself to a compile install you also get a cool neofetch logo (: Installation via a Live USB allows you to go back and fix mistakes from it without having to restart the whole installation process. Unlike, for example Ubuntu where a new version is released every six months, packages are updated when they are ready. This is a little tricky. It comes with over 55.500 packages (software that is precompiled and ready to be installed on a local machine) -- all of them for free.

If you want the newest packages, you'll have to do a minimal installation of Debian stable then upgrade to testing or you need to install testing directly. Those comments assume that : A) They happen often, B) you are using a specific package with an issue, C) that package maintainers can't release a patch to the package that will work around the issue for you, and that D) Manual intervention or system recovery from such issues is hard to fix.

This can be a hindrance for anyone not using English as their language, or not using a QWERTY keyboard layout. You can use. On lower end chrome books this may cause issues with RAM usage. While you can just choose systemd, it will require some tinkering. It may be less intuitive to users coming from other operating systems that put window controls on the right.
