Went from Windows directly to Arch and I just became an anarchist and (I'd argue) more masculine. Guess it's less about Trans and more about becoming more true to yourself.

    Sounds familiar, although i now use Guix. For me though i felt like it was more cyberpunk's fault for turning me towards anarchy. Johnny Silverhand be spitting some facts lol.

    Ha! I have yet to play cyberpunk, but it's definitely on my list. As for anarchism, I think my move to Linux recently has been more of a solidification of my radicalization that was seeded by my love for punk and strongly cultivated by my time in the Marine Corps. I think the general public would be shocked by how many of us become Communist/Anarchist/Socialist because of our time in the US military.

    Oh that's interesting. I think i saw a thread on reddit earlier this week where they also talked about how many people that have been in the military before became very anti-government afterwards. I can definitely recommend cyberpunk, especially now that it's all patched up. I should probably replay it myself at some point, cause i haven't played the dlc yet, and i also finished the game right before they did the huge skill tree overhaul. Also, not really a big spoiler or anything, but Silverhand also has a military background, so i guess it all lines up lol.

    From Windows to Arch? You must be a serial killer

    Okay, tbf, I'm using cachyos as opposed to raw dogging Arch from the start. I've also used some Linux distros in the distant past, though I can't remember the few outside of one of the early Ubuntu releases. Also, I've done a good smattering of IT work and programming throughout my life, so while I'm already fine with jumping into something having no idea what's going on, I already had enough experience to not be too worried about things.
