    I’ve always been familiar with Linux and tech but always used windows cause gaming. Last week I stripped all my drives and set up dual boot to daily drive Linux with a windows fallback for whatever I might need windows for.

    Fedora was up and running in no time.

    Win 11, I had to jump through the hoops to avoid logging in, it doesn’t label your drives like Linux does so you have to guess or cross reference somehow, twice as many reboots, pages of data settings.

    So glad to finally be going Linux ❤️

      One of us, one of us!

      Jokes aside, it’s always nice reading stories like this. Even if I’m still a noob myself.

        You’ll be fine! Linux isn’t all that and a bag of chips anymore as long as you’re open to an occasional internet search.

        I recognize that Linux isn’t perfect, but people who say it isn’t “ready for users” are people who want to have their cake and eat it too - Want the multi billion dollar polish of windows but with the respectfulness of FOSS (Free Open Source Software.)

        Of course, its possible to strip windows of most of its nonsense but again most users would rather die than do a simple search. 🤷
