Probably like many of you i switched to Linux. I first used it in 2012 when i heard about it in School. Back then i used Ubuntu, but could not figure it out how to play my Games on CD, DVDs and Steam so i switched back to Windows.
Over the Years i often tried it out again but had various problems with it.
Now, thanks to the Trump Donald, i have a real reason to no longer use Microshaft Proudcts. Our Boycott!
So far i tried Linux Mint, KDE Neon, Kubuntu, ZorinOS, PopOS, Debian, Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Gnu Guix, Fedora, OpenSUSE, Arch, Antergos. That is over 10 years.
What i found out:
- i dont like gnome, i find the ui weird. xfce is too cobbled together imo and ugly, lxqt too.
- i like kde and budgie
- im currently on kubuntu and gnu guix :)
Linux is kind of hard coming from windows, but i wont switch back now. It is more than just using a OS, it is now a mindset: more independent Europa! Maybe i will even switch to OSS that is made by European Firms and Developers, afterall if i donate i want my money to stay in Europa.
i already have some, maybe interesting, posts in mind about europa/linux stuff.
i could finally switch most of my family over to signal instead of whatsapp, after a bit of begging. xD the rest will be easier.
in october when win 10 is eol i can switch a few PCs over to linux mint or ubuntu. maybe it will be win 10 ltsc if they cant work with linux. its not easy if tou just want to use your damn pc to do some surfing and never had the urge to mess around.
