TronNerd82Every other Linux user I've met has said they've started with Windows or macOS before moving to Linux.I, on the other hand, was daily-driving Linux well before I ever touched Windows, and I only momentarily used OS X before Linux, but not enough for me to say I "started" with it.I wanna guage how many others have been in the same boat as me through a poll<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FOSS</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Poll" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Poll</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Windows</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOS</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/OperatingSystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OperatingSystems</a>

What's more, the battery life is crazy good, even though I have a dual-SIM config.What's bad still: - the fingerprint sensor is unreliable; apparently this is an issue that still needs to be addressed by the devs - The display has way too saturated colours and I can't change anything about thisBesides that, I start to get used to my (partially) <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/degoogled" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#degoogled</a> lifestyle.I still have to test ride sharing and banking apps, though.
