15 years ago installed Ubuntu to run as a server and had to reinstall and config everything like 10 times to get it to work and since then have been very vary of Linux but had to return since said installation broke like 2 years ago, installed Mint and my eyes opened how easy everything is now compared to then. I got tired of Microsoft bullshit so I switched to bazzite about 2 months ago and I have no problems. There have been a couple of times that it said "you can do this but it is probably not a good idea" but otherwise everything just works. I appreciate this because from my earliest experiences with Linux I wasn't happy. I use my computer for gaming and web stuff and that's pretty much it. What do you guys who feel you can't do what you want really do with your computer?
