あらしI have finally started using <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linux</a> as a desktop OS. After a few years of using Linux as on servers, I decided to splurge some money on a second ssd for my laptop (I do not trust myself or anyone with dual booting Linux and windows from the same disk, thus a second ssd + more space for games).Decided to go with Fedora (originally planned void linux, but KDE plasma didn't go as planned). So, from there I am setting up hyperland, attached a screenshot in it's unfinished state.Also, the host name of the laptop is an easter egg to vtubers as my laptop is a nice silver colour.<a href="https://urusai.social/tags/fedora42" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#fedora42</a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/Hyprland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Hyprland</a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/linuxdesktop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linuxdesktop</a>

Billal DellalThinking of switching to Linux... I've read that it's more flexible in terms of "modifying" open source softwares (mainly photography) to have my own versions and simply has more freedom. Since I discovered these softwares I never looked back but I'm a Windows user my whole life. What's a beginner friendly version of Linux you advise me to give it a go ? <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/linuxdesktop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linuxdesktop</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/linuxhelp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linuxhelp</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#opensource</a>
