I have finally moved over to Linux as my primary platform. In many ways it is like coming home, as I loved working on UNIX machines in the past. Of course, I have been using Linux as a secondary OS for a long time, but I finally made the switch. Microsoft cancelling Windows 10 and the direction Windows 11 is going was just too much for me.

@ruario helped the transition, by making it easy for me to work with multiple concurrent @Vivaldi installs.
That is a must for me as I test a lot of builds at the same time.

@jon @ruario @Vivaldi If I wanted to get on Linux, what machine should I use? For context, I’m currently on the M4 iMac and M4 MacBook Air. I’m not expecting a match in specs with my Macintosh computers, but something high-quality and more premium than the average computer with Linux would be great.

I really think you should go with what you like. A lot of people mention Thinkpads. A number of the large brands have devices that are pre-installed with Linux as well as some smaller brands that are pure Linux.
