Honestly my life is fantastic right now I LITERALLY cannot understand why I feel like this today. I have a ton going on and all of it is good but somehow that’s still scary and so many of the good things that are happening are somehow scary anyway and I’m really ultra struggling. How y’all doing. Tell me something good that you’re up to this weekend and maybe your blooming will help distract me from whatever this ridiculous anxiety is coming from. It do be like that sometimes.

    I have a few books on the waiting list (by Polanyi, Unamuno and Yuk Hui) but I keep getting distracted distrohopping to KDE plasma distros. I’ve already tried Kubuntu 24.10 and had some compatibility issues. The more I use Ubuntu, the more I understand why the glorious Linux Mint exists. I’ve also installed another partition with Fedora KDE just to play a little with non Debian based distros. Only time will tell if I go back to the always loyal Cinnamon Mint.

        Whenever you are ready I’d recommend you to start with a Debian based distro like Linux Mint, do a dual boot. It is great for beginners who are used to Windows, Linux has become far more user friendly than 10 years ago, now you can have a functional partition running with the most important apps in 30 minutes, no hassles at all. It only gets complicated if you want to dwell into nerdy stuff or run some very specific apps that are not native to the OS (there is always a way, though!). And Desktop Environments like Cinnamon, KDE or GNOME provide cool Graphic User Interfaces to allow a high degree of customization, just a few clicks and your desktop is looking beautiful, fast and comfortable. :)
