Yeah, same here. Migrating to Linux Mint because it is easier, and the home encryption is a must have for me, despite it's drawbacks etc. The Ubuntu shouldn't call the latest 18.04 release as LTS release - I do not understand why the backward compatibility is broken from one LTS release to another..

Still I'm looking into future with more and more Linux on Desktops (Workstations) and servers but there are still some additional issues which needs to be addressed (https://itvision.altervista.org/why.linux.is.not.ready.for.the.desktop.current.html).

And personally for me there are two functionalities which are missing and are critical for me:
- *PROPER* RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) replacement with strong connection encryption
- *PROPER* /home directory encryption (which helps protect data), as a workaround it could be even full disk encryption but somehow I need to type the password during boot via SSH to run the PC/SERVER which that is why I prefer home encryption, which additionally won't prevent the server itself from booting and starting up standard services like mysql, web etc..
