May I add onto your post?I do. I use Fedora. I love it. It is easy to use and doesn't feel too different from Windows. I have a lot fewer privacy concerns or worries about viruses and stuff like that on here as well. You just have to get adjusted to using the terminal and codes to download things but you can easily look up stuff you want to do and the codes are provided for you by different sites.
The good thing about Linux is that the installers have improved in the last 20 years.I messed the family computer installing Corel Linux on it 25 years ago, when no one could install shit I was in the hot seat. Never touched Linux again.
No, no one could install anything because all our programs were windows.The good thing about Linux is that the installers have improved in the last 20 years.
Wine has been around for a minute. But didn't your distro come with repositories?No, no one could install anything because all our programs were windows.
This is fair. I mean that in a way it was easy to switch because it feels similar. The functionality and security are far better and it does take some getting used to because you need to rely on the terminal and a lot of programs don't have Linux integration. More and more today do though which is fantatstic.May I add onto your post?
We don't go to Ford to get a Chevy experience. Linux is a different product than Windows so why does it need to be "just like Windows"?
Linux is NOT user friendly but it is user centric.
Right on! I use Fedora too. She runs great.
Gotcha!😉This is fair. I mean that in a way it was easy to switch because it feels similar.

Noice! I think my first time using Linux (Ubuntu) was 8.04, which I think was back in 2012? I don't remember. Not as long as you though.I've been programming with GNU/Linux since 2002
Oh hell yeah! Really? I always thought Ubuntu had a lot of control packed in. I will for sure look into both for my laptop, as I've been wanting to install a different OS on it for a while now. Have Ubuntu on it now, but wouldn't mind even more control.If you decide to install a Linux distro, may I suggest Fedora 34 or Mageia 8. Those two will hold your hand but allow you to control the machine without their helping hand. Is a sweet spot that few Linux distros a allow.
Viruses was a big thing I had with Windows machines. I'll admit, I didn't go to the safest of websites back in the day, and I think that's why my PCs were so damn infected. Which is why I found interest in Linux, since you didn't have to worry so much about viruses. Of course there are still viruses and things that can attach to a Linux machine, but it's rare.I do.

Why do you like that particular distro?I dibble and dabble with Kali Linux

Snowden named it as the most secureWhy do you like that particular distro?
Sorry, I was thinking of Tails LinuxGood for playing around with "penetration testing" (Hacking). Comes with apps for hacking wifi, phishing, trojan horses, etc.
How is it? I haven't heard a whole lot about it, but have heard it mentioned at a few other places. I feel like I've used something else with Kali in the name. Might have been some other open source software or something not even to do with tech.I dibble and dabble with Kali Linux
