I gave been wanting to go on linux mint for almost a year. Its time I fucking did it.
Edit: I have been doing a lot for privacy, but it just isn't enough. For example I wanted to use venice.ai... but I didn't just use a tutamail email, I even used a prepaid credit card. I live in canada where you don't need to attach your name to a prepaid card, meaning it is as anonymous as possible if you want to buy something with a card (and yes, I paid for it in cash and it was activated by the store).
Well, let me know if you've got any trouble. Oh, and do you have an HP? Those things SUCK at installing Linux. One of those things you have to find out from trying to install it on three separate HP devices.
I am a Dell guy through and through. I flashed linux mint on a cheap ass USB I had lying around. I will start with my laptop this weekend.
Nice
