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.

    Started playing with Linux in high school about 15 years ago and have gone further and further down the rabbit hole as both Linux has become soo much better and I have become so much better at using it. Been working with Linux full time for a few years now and Windows feels so foreign and difficult too me now.

    Only reason I still have Windows 10 on my gaming PC still is that I game so little that I haven’t been gaming much in the last few years.

    Glad to have you here!
