I’m a neanderthal. I barely know how computers work. I switched to Linux mint cinnamon a couple months ago. I’m a light user, mostly using word processing, internet, Foundry VTT to run games, and some light gaming via steam. I watched some YouTube videos and read some articles and just kinda sent it. It is offensively easy. I see no reason to go back to windows.

There are some things that take getting used to, but the user interface is really similar to windows and I would argue is largely more functional.

This video and this article helped a lot.

Remember, I am dumb and I did it. You can do it.

I also switched to Tidal after learning about Spotify’s dystopian future war AI powered killer robot plans. It’s also bullshit how little they pay artists.

I wish Tidal had podcasts, but I’m happy enough with AntennaPod.

I have exactly zero Linux knowledge but I know people who do!

Thank you! I’ll check those out!

I’ll check in over there. Thanks for both suggestions!

I think it was 3?

I’m really enjoying Trine 4 (the sale got me). I’m what the kids call a “casual”, but I’m really enjoying the puzzles and the combat. It’s also a really pretty game.

I bought a ninja blender and I was so proud of myself. And honestly it’s a great blender. But then I tried my mom’s Vitamix and holy shit it’s in a different league. Like the difference between JV basketball and the NBA.

Sister Sin rules. Check em out!

I wouldn’t want to be a fool, that’s for sure. You’re the first of 3 people to tell me to upgrade, so that’s what I’m going to do. I just hope my girlfriend hasn’t thrown away the box it came in.

Thanks for the advice! I really appreciate it.
