Pop!_OS

We're currently testing the water with a community on the lemmy.world instance. Lemmy.ml is overloaded.
Last week I switched from Windows 11 on my laptop to Pop!Os marking the first time in many many years that I installed a Linux Distro on one of my main machines (Iam using a headless Ubuntu for my mini home server though). I'm extremely pleased so far. Working with it on a laptop seems way more natural and intuitive than Windows. I also gained a substantial amount of battery life in low performance workloads. I also haven't had any driver problems or other weird hick ups. Which is great. The last time I tried to mainline Linux that wasn't the case. I'm already thinking about using it on my desktop PC but then I'd probably have to dual boot for some stuff and I'm not sure if I want to open that particular can of worms just yet.
Sometimes crypsetup loads but just get a gray screen before login prompt
System76 has released Linux 5.11 and Mesa 21.0 for both Pop!_OS 20.04 LTS and Pop!_OS 20.10. This incorporates support for RX 6000 series GPUs, which was the primary reason for the update.
Comment what features/additions/editions you'd like to see in Pop in the future. Here's mine: I'd love to see integrated Pulseaudio support integrated easily into Settings, so I don't have to mess around and deal with random issues to get a simple bass boost
I know people add at least a few extension to PopOS. So, what are yours?
