Today I did a cray-cray thing: I installed Linux Mint on my Windows PC, giving it 500 GB of space on my primary drive, with Windows getting the rest.
So far it has gone pretty smoothly. I haven’t had to use the terminal once!
I’m not sure why I installed it, I think I just wanted to try something different. It did drive home how much of what you do on a computer is done through a web browser, and it doesn’t really matter much what the OS is behind it.
Supposedly Linux is faster than Windows, or uses less resources or something. I’ll keep trying it for a bit, and if I love it, I will marry it! Well, no. But I’ll keep it. If in the end I feel it offers little over what I’m getting with Windows 11, I’ll probably reclaim the space back to Windows.
For now, though, I’m a triple OS guy on the desktop. Such a nerd. Or idiot. We’ll find out soon enough
EDIT: Here’s a link to the Linux Mint page. It’s like I completely forgot my internet manners!
