Haha yeah well I like Linux because it’s the underdog thing, and Solus seems to be the underdog distro. Or one of many. Being independent of Ubuntu and all. I like Linux Mint though. Also elementary OS is worth a look in my book and if you enjoy Ubuntu but hate Unity, Ubuntu with Budgie desktop seems to be smooth sailing too.
Yes I did get a docking station to use my ThinkPad on my non-USB-C enabled ThinkVision monitor, I got the Gen2 USB-C Dock from Lenovo and it works like a charm, looks great too.
But I also got the P27h Thinkvision Monitor for my office, which has a built in USB-C Dock and 65W charging. Also works as it should! :)
