Giddy, excited, curious and nervous all at the same time.
Let’s loosen that grip of adobe, microsoft and soon I hope apple too. :-)
Edit: Just hope I’m doing this right…
Sorry probably nothing for the pro’s on here but man, I am so excited to climb off of the macOS on this old MacBook Air 2015 and breathe new FOSS life into it.
My brother and father have been using Blender 3D for years and my sister got her first job as a designer using Inkscape!
So here’s to a “mint-y” fresh Linux MacBook Air! :-D
Thank you!!! Now downloading the iso file, then need to verify it I see. Have no idea about those commands to run, so will be using duckduckgo a lot as I take it one step at a time.
No idea what I assume is german there? Will have to translate it quick, oh wait my phone can do that. Ah! Thanks for holding fingers crossed! :-)
Yes used windows for years then tried ubuntu. (Can’t stand anything Microsoft related)
Then with my personal macbook it just got so old, I was told I could give it a new life.
And linux mint looks and sounds perfect! :-)
Thanks for the warm welcome!!!
Erasing and resetting okd macbook air 2015 model to test out linux mint for the first time. Only tried ubuntu like a decade ago on but it never stuck, as I was using macOS .
Holding thumbs it works. I know I can test it from a usb so will download and do that once the laptop is ready.
Not planning on using macOS at all so it should save space for linux. Very excited to revive an old friend and very excited to possibly become a first time linux user!
PS: I did ask around already on linux groups here on the fediverse, and was told mint should be fine, and would like to try something different from ubuntu.
Another classic case of someone just sharing an article and then getting bombed with down votes.
@starvingMartist@sh.itjustworks I am sorry. Here is my upvote. Have a good day.
Love your work!
My gherkin.
Haha thanks! Scared of spamming though. Made a few mistakes already. :-0

You are right haha! I didn’t even notice that. Now it’s even funnier! Thanks for that. C
Basically nobody is physically carrying it. And that is a laptop locking mechanism. So nobody could have taken it from the carrier. It’s just silly I guess.
Thanks for the kind words and encouragement . :-)
More like my ignorance. But yes I am learning.
Brilliant thanks so much! I’ve used Gimp and openoffice a very long time ago. But thanks a mill for the pdf and mail options! Any reason that thunderbird isn’t mentioned? Been using firefox for over a decade and know that a lot of people support thunderbird under FOSS.
