Ok, this is dry and kinda very boring.
So don’t watch this video in case you’re totally happy with your Windows. How? Or if you’re on the technical level of a lesser gifted 2 y/o toddler. Or if you’re a typical girl with nothing but clothes, hairs and boys in the head. Why?
All the others, the more awesome boiz n grrlz, are advised to watchy this widdioh:
Tired of trying Linux and then just going right back to Windows? Well this is the video for you to understand Linux a LOT better!

You’re absolutely right, Becca. And then the things he told us … did I ever in my 9 years on Linux needed to know the file system structure and any such stuffz? I get around the system without such knowledge, and without any problems.
As you said, that video was not very good for beginners. π¦
But Terminal, hmmm, maybe it was my guruine’s fault that I was thrown into the Terminal very quickly. As reported a couple times, I was too stupid for Mint, so she told me to install a totally new distro, Manjaro. It wasn’t even at version 1 back then but 0.8.9 or such. And she also taught me that Terminal is much more elegant than endlessly clicking through many menus. So I slowly, very slowly, learned the most important Arch Linux commands. All good now. Even better, I forgot most of the stuff already since we don’t need it in everyday computing, do we?

If you know where to go, a few clicks seems easier to me than memorizing a bunch of apt and sudo stuff. Maybe it’s because I’m used to the endless clicking through menus in SL π

And isn’t that the greatest thing about Linux? That freedom to do stuff the way most comfy/efficient for you?
Oh hey, KDE expert, you tried other distros with KDE/Plasma desktop? I mean, Neon is supposed to be made particularly for KDE and KAos is doing great as well.
