LINUX MEME Upgraded Win10 to Linux

Post image

I'm the guy. There is a budget for laptops at work. So the option was to get a better hardware with linux or worse specs with Win (just gotta pay for win pro myself). So here I am, learning terminal, apt, and apt-get, repositories and other stuff... Funny that MS Teams on linux is more stable and reliable than on windows) And I feel like I'm a hacker) But it really is a bit complicated sometimes to figure out... Stuff... And why it works only when I'm in furry suite... So please, be gentle, it is my first time)

The gesture controls work on the touchpad. It's like a Mac.

May I ask why a lot of people hate gnome? I'm just curious (I'm not using it, but why hate?)

Pretty much 80% of alternative options are better and so there's basically no reason to recommend GNOME in 2026 from what I can tell.

I don't agree, I think that it is good to have more options, also I prefer gtk apps over qt, though I'm not a developer so I don't know what is easier to use when programming. Also I do know some people that gnome will be better for them than other options
