We had a community challenge on Twitch in January for me to initiate my migration off Windows 10 to Linux.

The process began in February and I've been on Linux as my daily driver for a few weeks now. This video is an overview of that experience, my background and where things currently stand.

I'm very pleased with Linux Mint overall, despite some initial headaches and misgivings. Figured you might be interested in seeing this :)

Congrats! But you forgot to post the video. :)

I posted the link in the original post, seems to have gotten lost, sorry. As others have said, it's a video essay where I talk about the experience of it.

I do apologise if that doesn't fit this sub. I had to fight a bit through stuff because I game and stream and that was what held me back from attempting it in the first place. Here's the link :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoYW6HEVBCI

Nah, it's ok. I guess that can happen if you try to post both image and a URL at the same time. Well, if you talk about gaming, it does fit the sub. But it's generally fine even if you just talk about Linux since Lemmy communities are still relatively small.

Welcome $HOME

By the way, don't forget to edit the main post and add the link there too.

Thank you, appreciate it! Added the link to the body of it, too.
