What I love about @MichaelNROH's video(s) is how elegantly he explains #Linux for newbies - despite having used Arch for over 3 years, I'm able to appreciate his explanation of graphical ways to use Linux without needing the terminal

Ui, da sieht's aber noch ganz schön leer aus, insbesondere im (fast) gesamten ostdeutschen Raum)!
Hätte ja Lust, eine "Linux Install-Party" in Dresden anzubieten, aber nicht alleine.
Und was ist mit Leipzig und Chemnitz?

#EndOf10 #SwitchToLinux #Windows #Windows10
An interesting take on the long-suffering 'switch to Linux' that folks have been trying to make for as long as I can recall.
I've made no secret of my swap, nor of some of the issues I've run across (though I haven't mentioned the occasional GNOME crash I've been trying to isolate down), but I think right now the hardest argument to make is one of inertia - we're trying to make this argument to people who have always used Windows.
Part of it, I think, is just the fact that we don't have the slickness of Mac for an argument to make. Brushed aluminum and all that. It's nice, it's pretty, and Linux doesn't really have that appeal.
Here's the thing: I don't think this is the way to go about it. Let's look at the website for the moment. Five bullet points of 'why' that amount to the same arguments we're making, a list of what amounts to Linux users group installfests. It feels a little like a rehash of what we've already been trying.
What's the argument, then? I legitimately don't know. Some sort of migration assistant perhaps? Hey, run this, it'll find things we can do in Linux and pull stuff over, like the iPhone/android switch apps maybe. Something to go from "We can do everything you already are" to "Here's proof we do all the stuff you already do, and we're gonna migrate your stuff over so you can run virtually uninterrupted. Installing Linux now!"
I don't know. Something I think about from time to time. 10's impending EOL is a big problem, but I think ultimately it's just gonna wind up with end users clicking away the warnings until something goes hilariously sideways.
New blog post! 
It's the end of an era. Again.
Windows 10 is going end-of-life on October 14, 2025 and people aren't exactly thrilled to have Windows 11 and Microsoft's "AI" antics and bloat forced on them.
But as Microsoft shuts this door, another one has been kept wide open for years…

I switched to Linux
I find it difficult to grasp how dangerous the reliance on huge #corporations and #proprietarysoftware is until I hear something like this:
https://apnews.com/article/icc-trump-sanctions-karim-khan-court-a4b4c02751ab84c09718b1b95cbd5db3
The chief prosecutor of the #ICC (International Criminal Court) has lost access to his #Microsoft email account due to a #Trump ruling.
#opensource is the most reliable way of setting up critical #technology and, personally, I am finally convinced to #switchtolinux from #Windows.
# Switching to #linux was the best decision of my life, and i'm not exaggerating.
I've learned more in the past four years than in seven years of using #windows. What i've learned is valuable and useful. And i regret nothing but that i didn't switch earlier.
Switching to linux doesn't have to be fun. It will be exhausting, time consuming and frustrating at most times. And this is exactly what you should want.
Trying, breaking and fixing things are essential parts of your learning process. Daily driving linux is a daily learning experience.
I have a #learningdisorder which made me feel useless to the #IT industry. This year i had an internship which changed that completely. My #impostersyndrome and doubts are gone. And i can't even describe how good this feels.
Seeing reports that the installer in #fedora 42 has regressed where #accessibility is concerned. Haven't tested this but given the track record of most #linux distributions over the last few decades it wouldn't surprise me in the least. This is also why people can't always just #switchToLinux. The day distros don't just preach their a system for the people and that everyone should be able to use it, but actually walk the walk and consistently walk the walk is when I might consider giving switching more time and attention. Until then, I'd rather deal with the devil I know
A step by step guide for migrating from Windows 10 to Linux Mint Cinnamon. It's a good overview of how to install and set up Mint, regardless of migrations from other operating systems.
@jmaris @kde Very good initiative !
#SwitchToLinux
I've been hearing quite some people talk about the #oblivionremaster because of course I follow topics on my #favourite #franchise. One thing I noticed on one of the fora, is that #Linux users are reporting a much more stable experience than Windows users. One person even compared both OS's on the same system.
If anyone needed just one more reason to #SwitchToLinux, there it is

Ich habe eine #Signal.gruppe über #Linux für Einsteigergruppe auf deutsch erstellt!
Das Ziel ist, ohne Sprachbarriere ausschließlich bei Linux zu helfen und darüber auszutauschen.
Fortgeschrittene gerne auch dazukommen, um Wissen zu teilen!

An article with information to help decide whether to migrate from Windows to Linux. It's not a step by step guide but a discussion of the reasons to migrate to Linux, what a switch means in practice, and other considerations for those considering a migration.

Das Android-Tablet gegen ein Linux-Convertible getauscht, das #Fairphone läuft eh schon mit @e_mydata , PC mit #TuxedoOS
Mein Urlaub verläuft bislang sehr produktiv, bin wahnsinnig glücklich. Jetzt erstmal Linux Ubuntu auf einem alten PC installiert, um damit zu üben und auszuprobieren, bevor ich mich wirklich an meinen Gaming PC wage. Bin überrascht wie gut und einfach das funktioniert hat. Morgen installiere ich die nächsten Programme, wenn ich endlich ins Internet komme, es wollte nicht auf den ersten Versuch.
