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?

It's been GREAT! All my torrenting related stuff works better than it did on windows 10. I am slowing loading old 2000's windows PC games on my Mint installation and so far it's been working well.

My computers are MUCH faster on linux and updates take 20 seconds instead of 15 minutes.
