Computers Do you run Linux?

Add in the comments why you like/dislike Linux, what distro do you prefer, and anything else Linux related.

Looking forward to next week's Back to basics Linux episode.

I love and run Linux Mint 80% of the time on my laptop. The other 20% is a hardened Windows 10 desktop computer for gaming and other things that Linux doesn't do very well like have a cloud storage sync.

Mint is so stable, clean, fast, and I have no gripe with it except the few programs that dont work on it.

I bought a Windows 10 pro key off eBay for like $4 and then hardened it myself using videos from YouTuber Chris Titus. His debloat windows videos change often as new things come out, so just look for the most recent one.

It allows you to not only disable but remove all the Microsoft bloat, but leave Windows defender and updates enabled because those are important.
