      Congrats! One more person opened their eyes to freedom!

      When you come to Linux, you never want back.

        I’ve been experiencing Windows’ degredation since 98/XP, it’s been an extremely smooth transition from Windows 10 to Linux Mint.

        Still working out the kinks with my game library but apart from new user errors it’s worked flawlessly (unlike Win10).

        Thank you Lemmings for showing me to the light!

        Edit/TLDR: it’s kinda like windows, but functional and user control is king.

          That’s the best TLDR you could give at the end.

          Generally UI and feeling are “Windows, but without BS”

            100% on the TLDR there, I’ll edit as such, that comment is open source ;)

            I’ve been running Ubuntu on a separate machine for a little while now, and it works great, just not a good fit for me.

            I’m happy to say within 2 weeks of my dual boot I’m already on mint 90% of the time. It just fucking works. (Without waking me up at 2-4am sending the fans to mach 7 for a damn windows update).
