Hey everyone,
I am exploring switching over to Linux but I would like to know why people switch. I have Windows 11 rn.
I dont do much code but will be doing some for school. I work remote and go to school remote. My career is not TOO technical.
What benefits caused you to switch over and what surprised you when you made the switch?
Thank you all in advanced.
Long time ago my dad bought a few netbooks and they came with Xandros pre-installed. It wasn’t much of a choice to be honest (all my friends, school, every other PC was running Windows). And I never give it a chance because there was a desktop with Windows so I used that instead.
Times goes buy and the Xandros version was not going to keep up with my needs and I’ve switched to Ubuntu Remix (very cool at the time) and then I’ve got to experience Ubuntu 09.10 with Gnome. And that was a game changer for me (I learned a lot on how Linux works under the.hood) but I kept Windows machine just for gaming (until last year).
I remember those! I had bought an Asus eeePC when they came out. Cheap laptops! Do you remember what yours was?
Yes! The exact ones! I almost forgot the name
