Finally, after some time I made the switch to #Linux !
🧵1/2
Here is my experience and the hiccups I found :
- It was hell to find how to boot on the USB drive. You needed to disable secure boot and it didn’t tell you that anywhere, as far as I can tell
- It was easy enough to set up, connect to wifi etc
- Strangely Firefox has a bigger top app bar, instead of all the icons and tabs being on a single row, there are 2 rows (one with the tab name, and another one with the actual tabs
- The fingerprint reader could be set up, but when trying to log in it always says fingerprint not recognized
- Keyboard shortcuts changed, for example screenshots can’t be done using Win Shift S, the clipboard history doesn’t work by default etc
- The key to mute my mic doesn’t work, and is not recognized as a key. The other keys like disabling the trackpad work fine.
- I like how typing the name of software from windows like paint and notepad gives the linux equivalent
@linux

If you’d like the same functionality but using pride flags to color in the distro logo, check out
hyfetch.this is incredibly relevant to my interests (the only thing more relevant would be nyancat and pride flags) :3
You’re looking for fastfetch: https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch
