Shit, just linux.

Use this community for anything related to linux for now, if it gets too huge maybe there will be some sort of meme/gaming/shitpost spinoff. Currently though… go nuts

Hey everyone, right now, I’m mostly Mac-based. I also have an older PC, a Raspberry Pi, micro PC and a mac laptop.

Now that I’m retired and have more time on my hands, I really want to dive deep into Linux and break away from the monopoly.

I’ll definitely do my own research, but there’s so much information out there—it feels like drinking from a firehose. It’s overwhelming!

Do you have any tips or websites to help me get started, step by step? I know I’ll make plenty of mistakes along the way (that’s how ya learn), but I’d appreciate any advice you can share. Thanks!

Mint is very easy for Windows users and everything I've tried on Steam has worked just fine.

Good to know. I'm reading up on it it now. I never use my microPC, so perfect testing ground.

Thanks, mate!
