Casual Linux user here. Every time I boot up my laptop I can see the Ubuntu logo but then I get a black screen. I searched for some workarounds but they couldn't help, because I can't get into this special mode after pressing shift.
Any ideas?

In order to get to "this special mode," you basically have to spam the left shift key just as the POST finishes.
Once in recovery mode, try using the "fail-safe graphics mode." If you can get to the desktop, see if there are proprietary drivers available for your GPU. (Dash > Additional Drivers)
