Comment on Screw it, I’m installing Linux
BartyDeCanter@lemmy.sdf.org 3 days agoMint. It’s a great, simple, well supported first distro. And last distro, TBH. I know plenty of people like to distro hop as a hobby, but if you just want to use your machine pick a well supported basic distro and stick with it. Mint, Ubuntu, Fedora are all good options, but Mint is really aimed at newcomers.

3 weeks with Mint after 25 years of windows. It’s good and it has solid support. Most things worked right away, some refused, like gaming peripherals and some games. Wine and Proton work most of the time. It has a learning curve bit it’s manageable.
