Yeah I lost it when I saw this too. But, because I waited so long to switch to Linux, it’s to the point where I feel it has so much of what was lacking the last time I used it. Easily over ten years ago. Thank you to everyone who slogged through it to get here.

It took about a year of dual booting for me to finally feel confident using it, but now I’d never go back. It’s definitely not an overnight or weekend thing, learning the “Linux way”, but it’s worth it. It’s so much easier than it was even just 5 years ago, let alone 15

It depends on what you use your computer for, really. My partner isn’t very tech savvy and doesn’t use their computer for anything more than watching youtube and writing emails, so porting them directly to Ubuntu was super easy.
