Typing the minutes of the shooting club's board meeting tonight in markdown in vim and then converting to a good looking pdf using pandoc for sharing and printing 👌 #newtolinux #terminaltools

Very satisified so far with my very keyboard centric linux setup after switching from macOS. Latest addition is e-mail in the terminal (neomutt) which is a delight. I should start paying for protonmail so I can add that to neomutt as well.

Next up is reviving my parents' almost 20 years old laptop. It's very slow even with a very light distro. Going to try installing new RAM and SSD. #linux #newtolinux

just moved to fedora linux 🐧

new here, still figuring things out.

current workflow: break → google → fix → repeat 🔁

but hey, it’s kinda fun 😄

Switching from Windows to Linux: Everything You Need to Know

If you’ve ever browsed a tech forum or Linux group, you’ve probably seen the same question pop up again and again: “I’m switching from Windows to Linux… which distro should I use?” It’s a fair question — but also the wrong first question. There's a growing interest in switching to Linux recently, with Windows 10 nearing its end of life (EOL)

Virtual Curiosities

#linux #linuxmint #linuxnewbie #newtolinux

I am posting from my new Linux Mint (MATE) installation. I chickened out and used the "live CD", or in my case live USB, setup. Got my essential FF addons and here we are.

This is very nice (read: painless) so far! I have 2 critical use cases this setup has to pass. First is work stuff which should not be difficult since I mainly use online tools like google workspace/apps.

So much this! If you enjoy installing Linux then please go ahead and distro-hop as much as you like. But if what you have works for you - then don’t feel obliged to change just because. Don’t let anyone else tell you you’re enjoying something “wrong”. #NewToLinux #Linux #LinuxTips

My general suggestion is going to be to start with something else, and also to remind folks that you don't have to distro hop to be happy. If you start on Distribution X and Distribution X always feels like home forever and ever, you're still valid in the Linux space. Even if jerks-on-the-internet tell you that you aren't doing it right. They're wrong, you're happy, and that's what matters.
