alright how do I switch to linux

[โ€“] MostRegularPeople 2 points 3 weeks ago

I'm a neanderthal. I barely know how computers work. I switched to Linux mint cinnamon a couple months ago. I'm a light user, mostly using word processing, internet, Foundry VTT to run games, and some light gaming via steam. I watched some YouTube videos and read some articles and just kinda sent it. It is offensively easy. I see no reason to go back to windows.

There are some things that take getting used to, but the user interface is really similar to windows and I would argue is largely more functional.

This video and this article helped a lot.

Remember, I am dumb and I did it. You can do it.
