Funny to me that this comes out just a month after my one year anniversary of having ditched Windows. Mint is what got me into Linux, even though I quickly out-grew it. Definitely gonna save this and send it to anyone that needs a good, in depth explanation of how to get into Linux and a demonstration of how easy it is.
Hmm-- now that I think about it, it's also been a year since I started using Linux full time! i3wm is soo good, once you get used to it you can never go back
That's definitely not for me. I'm somewhere between a basic and an advanced user. I'm not afraid to do things that might break my OS, but, I also like my pretty desktop environment lol.
Currently using Bazzite with KDE plasma, but I'm very excited to see how Cosmic comes out.
But honestly, that's what I love about Linux! Like Mutahar said, there's definitely elitism, but I've personally never run into it. The community has grown and matured. There's so many distros, it can be confusing at first, but that also means there's something for everyone! What attracts me is the ability to customize however I want, but what attracts others is unbridled efficiency. And me getting my more laid back, casual experience doesn't mean that others can't have the most bare bones, lightweight Distro that's more efficient than my 2 brain cells can handle.
It's like I said the first day I started using Mint: "Linux really puts the P back in PC."
Coming up on 5 years here for me. Things have progressed a lot in those 5 years too.
