Nothing is needed for me, I already replaced Windows. It's been a while actually.
Same. Im a total noob and there are challenges to using Linux but Microsoft are assholes who treat customers like shit so screw them
Windows comes with its own set of challenges in the form of wanting things set up differently from how MS wants them set up and not wanting to be nagged about using their shitty programs and services. I got to the point where any time the OS or software initiated some kind of contact with me, it would annoy me even if it might have been helpfull because I'm so used to those being from the marketing department.
Like I've noticed that Linux can do things without annoying me even if that thing used to annoy me on windows just because I don't have that expectation that it's trying to sell me something.
Welcome to the family. 🐧🫂
