I suck at tech and have never had to do this. What the hell are you doing to Mint?

transitioning to GIMP from Photoshop has been harder for me than switching to Linux.

Same, but Affinity Photo instead of Photoshop.

I’ve often dabbled in Linux, mostly dual-booting, but now I’m fully committing. I mostly kept with Windows because Affinity Designer and Photo don’t work on Linux, and having quality graphic design software is important to what I do. It just got to the point with Microsoft endlessly advertising to me, changing my defaults, trying to force me to use Edge, and forcing updates that I had enough and even having access to quality graphic design software wasn’t enough for me to stay.

Glad to be part of the trend. Literally just yesterday, I got rid of Windows and installed Pop OS instead.

This is a bit, right? There’s no way you ACTUALLY believe this, right? RIGHT?

Yeah, when I was homeless, I was already beginning to turn left and knew that America didn’t have much of a safety net. Once I was homeless for a bit, that’s when I realized that we don’t have a safety net at all, and ended up having to return to the place I was running away from. That experience radicalized me. Yet, I get people, including my own family, telling me about how good homeless people have it, knowing full well that I was homeless and me telling them otherwise. Just angering.
