Every year that goes by, the less my colleagues give funny looks when I talk about being a Linux user. These days it's more often envy -- my default browser never changes, I can put my start menu wherever I like, my hard-drive never spontaneously encrypts itself, my user account never deletes and replaces itself with an always-online doppleganger. These statements are somehow impressive brags and that amuses me greatly.

Get on linux mint. There are dozens of us!

To anyone who used Linux once upon a time and got scared off - try it again. Nowadays so much works without any config, driver support is so much better and, at least with my last year using Fedora, it's incredibly stable.

And if you get stuck, ChatGPT is so good at helping you through the experience. Also, IMO, once you spend a week or so to get used to Gnome desktop environment it's better than both windows and macos.
