It took my old laptop dying on me for me to finally ask my geeky neighbor to install Mint on another laptop I had around.
It’s been a few hours and Omigod. Why did I waste so much time? It works. It’s easy and intuitive. It makes sense. There’s no bullshit.
I still have to make Antidote talk to Libre Office, but whatever. The rest feels good and natural.
So please whoever is here because you’re contemplating switching: do it yesterday.

      Yes. Well no, not yet. To be One of you, I need to say the Sentence:

      Now let me tell you why your distro of choice is Not The Right One.

      Here. Done. (Phew. I couldn’t list many. I’ve heard of Mint, Fedora, and Pikachu. Even then, Fedora might be a Pokemon, not sure.)

        If you want a very stable server = debian

        Hybrid server+gaming = openSUSE Tumbleweed

        If you hardcore probably Arch :D

        If your are in ultra instinc you make your own OS :D

          One day maybe. I have thought about doing this, but I just want it to work when I only have 4hrs to myself after work. I’d say my distro but it’s prolly the wrong one, hehehe 🤪

        I’m pretty sure Fedora the Pokémon wears a Pikachu in the movie adaptation, so close enough 🤣
