Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

    I’m happy! It Just Works. Windows 11 -> Linux.

    • I have had ONE WiFi problem that was my computer’s fault the whole year; as opposed to half the times I open the computer.
    • One video game didn’t Just Work, I had to tinker, but I got it working smoothly with mods.
    • A bit of trouble with flash drives initially because they were not formatted to something compatible with Linux. Once I learned that I managed to shuffle data around and format it to be compatible with MacOS, Linux, and my Windows VM. But Linux actually saved me and let me get an old flash drive working that did not work at all. Love reformatting on my distro, it’s easier and more visual than when I tried to do it on Mac or Windows.
