I've self hosted for a while but never used linux desktop. Just this week I just set up dual boot on my laptop with the intention of using it 90% Linux 10% windows 10. Its been great so far & I'm enjoying the learning curve finding alternatives to what I'm used to (some of which I'm sure I can't run on Linux - Traktor & several other more obscure things). Lots to learn but good fun & the lack of AI horseshit plus the OS not spying feels liberating.
The very first software I installed (Brave) recommended to use terminal which didn't bother me in the slightest but it may be intimidating/offputting for mainstream.
I use windows 11 at work & at a friends who needed help. It's absolutely loathsome, everytime I open anything there's stupid irritating notifications & popups getting in the way when it tries to “help". Windows 10 will be the last version of Windows in our house
