Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

I have been on Linux for almost 9 months now and I miss nothing about windows. I tried a bunch of distributions, starting with Fedora, but now I have settled on an Arch based distribution and am happily running Manjaro.

Once Manjaro inevitably shits itself, think of EndeavourOS! It's the perfect fully Arch-native, simple to set up and use distro.

Manjaro is so nice for daily driving. I switched to CachyOs maybe... Two years ago? And despite having some hiccups, I'd rather have it a million times over Windows.
