Recommendations accepted to make a better one.You might as well replace "free" with "linux" as these mother fuckers never shut up about it. It's basically a free get.
I mean, do I need to tell people that I'm using Linux Mint? No.

When I first joined Lemmy I got a message from Nicole. I instantly knew it was sketchy, but I saw some comments genuinely missing her when she got banned. Overall, there's a small minority that actually meant it but I still can't believe that scams like that have an audience.

GNU/Linux does not have a marketing department so the community has to do that outreach. Also people love to share what they are passionate about, especially if it's about free/libre software that respects it's users

Linux is free, yes, you should install it.

Yes. It's a good distro.

Complaining about grad / being kicked from grad needs to be on there.

I'm using Mint as well. I don't usually advertise it to people, but i have been very happy with it. I managed to get it to do everything i was previously using my desktop PC with Windows 10 to do.
I'd had my PC crash a year or so ago and decided it was my opportunity to try making the switch. I couldn't get any recovery cds or USBs from Windows to help out, so i was starting to think the CPU and/or motherboard was shot. A bootable USB for Mint managed to work though! (Turned out i had a bad hard drive)... But just that alone had me sold--it could at least get my system running in a pinch where Windows had failed to...or quite possibly, i missed something trying to use recovery CDs and USBs made on my 10+years old Windows 10-running laptop, though that same laptop produced the Mint USB that got me running...I built my pc over 10 years ago, so i was kinda expecting to have to replace it sooner or later anyway...but alas it's working fine everyday and Mint has been the reason.
The initial change was a little difficult to manage and it still isn't perfect. For instance, i can't seem to copy certain files from my old hard drives to the Linux drive and vice versa--i presume it's a file system difference or something of that nature but I'm not skilled enough to dig too deep and it's working fine otherwise.
But I have my workarounds, and it's been nearly flawless otherwise. VLC works great, I've found apps that are better than the stuff i was using on Windows for photo management, and file transfers are generally much faster (and even large file transfers are possible now, where on Windows it was hit-or-miss for me or it would hang up after ½ hour or whatever)... Many upsides if you're willing to learn a few new things and find ways to get it to do what you need. The more i hear about the way Windows 11 is turning out, I'm relieved to have made the leap.
Sorry for the infodump 🫠

Don’t apologize for speaking your mind! Your experience has generally mirrored my own, as I also had a decade old computer conk out on me, causing me to swap to mint after recalling its ease of use. Booting from a drive made me feel somehow slick, and I loved it. Though I still don’t know what killed my old computer, I just bought an old business laptop without an OS and went to town.
The only thing that still trips me up is installing from repos via terminal. Visual package lists would be appreciated, but by the time I’m done, I forget to install one. I probably have a dozen packages I need to remove, at this point. Bleh
