I bought a laptop yesterday, it came pre-installed with Windows 11. I hate win 11 so I switched it down to Windows 10, but then started considering using Linux for total control over the laptop, but here’s the thing: I keep seeing memes about how complicated or fucky wucky Linux is to install and run. I love the idea of open source software and an operating system without any of the bullshit that comes with Windows, but most of the open source stuff I have is on my android and fairly easy to install. Installing and using Linux just feels like it’ll be a whole different beast that’ll eat up most of my time and I’m kind of intimidated by it.
TL;DR Linux scawy, how does a barely computer literate scrub like me who’s used nothing but windows since the dawn of their life get started with Linux?
Fedora’s installer can be confusing for new users and you need to know some technical terms (3rd party repos, Flathub etc) to set it up
The installer is actually pretty easy, even though a bit strange in some parts, really stable.
Like, better than Calamares in my eyes.
But yes, on Fedora you basically need
flatpak remote-delete -y fedora flatpak remote-add flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepoAnd on NVIDIA good luck, I would honestly just use uBlue there.
