"In January I finally made good on my threat/promise to install Linux on my desktop. I wanted to see how far I could get using a Linux PC as my main computer without doing a bunch of research beforehand or troubleshooting afterwards."
"It didn't take long for my Linux install to stop feeling new and exciting and start feeling like, well, my computer. It's not exactly like a less annoying version of Windows, though it is less annoying than Windows."
"Fortunately, everything that's gone wrong so far has only gone slightly wrong, like a gaming mouse that only works in games, and most of it has been pretty funny."
Installing Linux on a desktop has proven to be a positive experience, with only minor issues arising. The transition from Windows was easier than anticipated, despite some challenges in app installation and compatibility. Most problems encountered were humorous or slightly inconvenient, rather than serious. The overall experience has been calm and robust, with troubleshooting often being satisfying. The user has primarily relied on Linux, only booting into Windows twice for specific tasks.
