Linux may be on to something

I'm still getting a legacy PC for win 7, but I think Linux can run on any modern PC. I think Linux also is way more versatile than it was in the beginning. I've used windows all my life and fear the change, but Microsoft has forced me into this with their forced crap like tpm snapshots, one drive, copilot etc. It feels like a federal wiretap. Linux is free too and with a couple of add ons ons I think native software can launch similar to windows. **** Windows 11, the ad obsessed most invasive crap is ever to exist.

Been using linux for almost a decade now! Only go back to windows to run programs that absolutely "can't" run on linux (dual boot). Currently very happy with debian but ubuntu/mint is probably the best for beginners.

@unregisteredhypercam4 is it really hard at first to run software?

@Worldreject Only hard part is that it's different. Some DE's come with a graphical appstore, but the commandline packgage manager is extremely easy to use. As long as you have a gui, you can just click to run exactly like on windows and mac.
