If Linux didn't exist, we would actually end up with a lot of e-waste, and I mean a fuck ton of it. And it's all thanks to you, Microsoft.

Hell, Linux does exist, and people just don't wanna use it because they're so used to Windows that anything else is basically as steep of a learning curve as a literal cliff. And to those people I say: "just add some mint on it and life will be easy. Maybe even drizzle some cinnamon on it as well"

Started using linux mint 22 since 2 months great experience. Difficult with some software with wine winetricks and bottles and stuff. I'm not in any tech field. Learnt from YouTube. Still more to learn... But it's fun to figuring things out and chatgpt

I'm a recent Mint user as well. The transition felt pretty seamless so far.
