NotJustBikes uses Linux! angielski

As someone who used Linux for years, then left due to issues with compatibility, and have recently returned; Linux distros have come a long way in ease of use for average/casual users like myself. I’ve been pleasantly surprised at how well everything just works. I’ve had to research a few things I wanted to do with my system, but those actions were going beyond the most common use cases. I don’t know if it is the “year of the Linux desktop,” but Linux is definitely in a place now that greatly increases its approchability. I know the community is very big on customization and tinkering, but that isn’t what the average pc user values, so having distros that are functional with zero or minimal tinkering will certainly be a boon to wider adoption. With apple being a “boutique” company and Microsofts continuous anticonsumer practices (my reason for switching), I definitely forsee a growth in Linux market share.

Awesome, Mint has been my daily driver lately. Kinda feels like the Toyota Camry of OSes lol.

You can’t make it the “year of the Linux desktop” for anyone but yourself.

I think he did mention he worked in IT.

Yes I think so. He also runs his own Mastodon instance at notjustbikes@notjustbikes.com.

That’s very on-character for him to do, but it’s still great to hear :)
