How is your Linux Adventure going? (lemm.ee)

Probably like many of you i switched to Linux. I first used it in 2012 when i heard about it in School. Back then i used Ubuntu, but could not figure it out how to play my Games on CD, DVDs and Steam so i switched back to Windows.

Over the Years i often tried it out again but had various problems with it.

Now, thanks to the Trump Donald, i have a real reason to no longer use Microshaft Proudcts. Our Boycott!

So far i tried Linux Mint, KDE Neon, Kubuntu, ZorinOS, PopOS, Debian, Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Gnu Guix, Fedora, OpenSUSE, Arch, Antergos. That is over 10 years.

What i found out:

i dont like gnome, i find the ui weird. xfce is too cobbled together imo and ugly, lxqt too.
i like kde and budgie
im currently on kubuntu and gnu guix :)

Im too much distrohopping bevause of small annoyances. its not a good time spent! lol

Seeing this CD reminded me of Knoppix. I tested that in school when I was 16 or 17.

Your picture really makes me feel old. Kernel 2.0? KDE 1.0? GIMP 1? Feels so far away, it must have been a different life.

I get this feeling every time a cover of an computer magazine i bought in yesteryear appears somewhere on lemmy and i realize this issue was sold in the year 198x...
