There is a recurring issue where they will update drivers and some users will experience a black screen on boot. I will say that you need to be careful with the NVIDIA drivers for Pop. System 76 NVIDIA drivers work great and I don't experience any screen tearing or rendering issues when visualizing data or gaming on my Thinkpad X1E2 with GeForce 1650. Very easy, no headaches, out of the box compatibility. Same deal with mpich, mvapich2, openmpi, and CUDA. I compile Fortran, C/C++ with the Intel compiler suites and GNU compilers and have them set up as modules that I can turn on and off in.

I use vscode for most of my coding and it works flawlessly, and Matlab installs and runs with no issues. I compile and execute C, C++, and FORTRAN77/90 code daily and also write a ton of utilities in Python and Matlab on a weekly basis. I also do data visualization and video rendering in Tecplot. I'm a software developer and mostly develop fluid mechanics solvers, so I also do a ton of meshing and mesh editing as well as parallel computing with MPI and GPU parallelization with CUDA. I use Pop as my primary OS, but also do a lot of CAD with a variety of software suites (primarily NX, Creo Parametric, and Solidworks) and animation with 3DS Max and Hammer, which unfortunately necessitates keeping Windows on a small partition. MPI, CUDA, sed, grep, vim, vscode, matlab, python, fortran, scp, sftp, ssh. Long time linux user and Pop is my primary OS. Do solid modeling, mesh editing, parallel computing, data visualization, light gaming.

TLDR - I'm a software developer and mechanical engineer. TL DR: Installed it because of the NVIDIA drivers, if you need to use Windows exclusively programs, think about having a dual boot. For all other means and purposes, I'd make my whole system run in Pop. I am dual booting, but only because Microsoft Office is (for my purposes) better than LibreOffice. I'm using 18.04 since the idea of having the LTS appealed to me rather than trying a newer version. I installed Pop by pure chance, because I had already tried Ubuntu and Manjaro, and they gave me issues with my NVidia card (+ the coworker that helped me install both of those did so in Legacy and not in UEFI and I didn't notice until I did it by myself).

At work they asked me to install any Linux distro I wanted, since it would be easier to download and upgrade programs, as well as a faster boot up and less memory usage (which it all does magnificently, but albeit, my Windows system slowed down when I had to download the NVIDIA Cuda manager).
