Which Linux OS for FreeCAD?
Hello everyone,
I will soon start using Linux, probably Ubuntu, Mint or Elementary, and I wanted to know if among these OS there were any differences to take into account for FreeCAD performance?
Thank's in advance for your answers

AFAIK, pretty much any distro can run FreeCAD.

Hello,
Ubuntu linux version 20.X.X is a good choice: user-friendly, easy to install.
I use AppImage to install Freecad 0.20.
The last stable version in Ubuntu repo is the 0.18 version.
Cheers
I have used the AppImages for 0.19, 0.20 and Link branch (from realthunder) in Fedora 35-36, Ubuntu 20.04-20.10 and ArcoLinux without any problems.
