Switching from Microsoft Windows to Linux is one of the best decision I ever made.

Thank you to the thousands of Debian volunteers. You are amazing people ❤️

If you're a noob, what made you go with Debian in the first place?

I want to be clear, there's nothing wrong with that, just not the usual path for a new Linux user.

I liked Zorin (often recommended for users coming from Windows) which is based off Ubuntu which in turn is based off Debian. Not a fan of Snaps, though. I also value stability over blistering performance and bleeding edge features.

I'm the same and decided to give Tuxedo Linux a try. So far I really like it.
