Thanks! I’m genuinely encouraged by learning Linux. That’s why I’ve been documenting things here, to share with those like me who have tried before or hesitant to make the jump.

Agree - software is the greatest blocker these days. My recent software restriction was simply a tool I was only using for study.
I was still skeptical that it would be so easy as I’ve been burnt before by Linux on YouTube or articles that exclaim just how easy it is but I usually run into at least a couple of major issues that become a pain to overcome. Not so this time! Every PC I’ve cut over during this process has been painless.
Literally the only issue I’ve had to date was my monitor not waking from sleep - a minor fault that was fixed by selecting any colour profile that wasn’t the default.
As long as you are domain joined, group policy will get rid of all that BS (I think that’s the requirement, I’ve been out of ops for a couple of years now and the memories are fading fast!). These days, that’s the only way to make Win11 somewhat decent.
Definitely no hate for Arch, just me being a smart arse ;)
“High performers don’t waste their time arguing with the void on social media. Congrats, you just burned the only free hour you had after work.”
Bro, you’re literally just like those you despise. Talking of badges, don’t prick yourself with that “Sheriff of Linux” badge you made it out that bottle lid.
Edit: Sorry, where the hell did that link come from!? I swear it wasn’t there when I last looked!
So far, so good but I haven’t really thought about it since. It may not suit a purist, hardcore or someone who tweaks their system endlessly but for someone like me, I don’t want to spend me free time fiddling, breaking, then fixing my home gear.
Until Win10, I never liked to “upgrade” any OS, preferring a clean slate approach and from what I understand, that’s what I’ll get here. A clean new OS with each upgrade that eliminates any gradual degradation due to a build up of clutter and abandoned packages. All while the flat packs and my data/config reside safely in the use partition (anyone, let me know if I’ve got this wrong!)
