many people will go back, but of these, i’m sure many will also come back eventually

i’ve tried a bunch of distros in my last 2 years with windows. many didn’t satisfy my needs at the time, so i stayed on windows.

but now, it’s been over a year since I definitely switched to linux, and over 6 months since i nuked (accidentally, but shhh) my windows partition. and i don’t plan on going back anytime soon.

    Yeah it's been a long road for me to be fully Linux on my personal systems. I think I started messing with Linux circa 1997 and didn't switch over fully until I think Windows 7 went EoL.

    Just out of curiosity, which distro did you end up using?

    right now im on Fedora KDE! it works well enough for me, it’s modern, it looks good, and most importantly (for me) it supports fractional scaling well (my laptop needs fractional scaling and that’s been the thorn in my foot for a while)

    Linux Mint works great, but I've heard good things about Bazzite, too.

    I love and hate bazzite. It's still what I use daily, but man is it weird. Just small little bugs, an it is an immutable os so that threw me off, couldn't do my wild an whacky project but atleast most everything worked right out of the box!
