  • Ever since I tried windows 11 on a laptop given to me I’ve been using Linux exclusively. It’s been about a year now and I thought I would have issues with games, but every game I actually play runs just fine, and usually better than on Windows.

    I don’t see myself going back at all. Even for my college classes for windows exclusive software (just requirements for degree) I use the provided cloud vm from the school. Every time I go into the VM it just reminds me more how I don’t want to go back to Windows.

    At least on pretty much all distros, you can customize your desktop however you want. Can’t even move the taskbar anymore on Windows 11.

    Edit - this addition:

    I’ve even built my latest PC with the express goal of never running Windows and I’m extremely happy with it.


  • One that has helped me and my gf is a small whiteboard. We attached it to the wall in the kitchen right next to the fridge. When things get low or run out or we find a recipe we want to try we add it to the list. When it’s time to get more stuff we just take a picture of the whiteboard and use that as the list. When we get back we erase things we got but don’t erase what we didn’t, or couldn’t get enough of.

    It’s made shopping less memory based and lets us see what we actually use and don’t so we even save money just by using a cheap whiteboard.
