Let’s answer your question with a question: Why should I reimage my whole tailored home setup, have to learn a different method of doing everything on my system, and ultimately slow my workflow for an atomic system? Sure, it’s cool, but it’s not worth upending everything that I use for. I’m glad it exists, but I don’t currently have a need for it.

Why wait? Dual boot, get cozy, still have the ability to go back to Windows if needed, find alternative apps, and soon enough, you won’t need the Windows partition :) Worked for my partner, my brother, and myself

My perspective is simple, a win is a win. If someone makes the leap to Linux, that’s a huge win, regardless of distro.

To piggy-back off of this, it’s not entirely uncommon to create another directory at root in enterprise environments, using /data or /application That said, I only do that for enterprise, for my personal computer, my distro defaulted to auto-mounting to a directory for each drive inside of /mnt, and I rather like that and intend to stick with it.

• Not sure if you want to count paying for Bitwarden

I pay a small amount monthly to each, I figure instead of paying $5-10 for Netflix or something, I’ll give it instead to these fantastic folks. Most of them are going through some major service, whether that’s Patreon, Paypal, whatever…I already have a credit card with my spending being tracked, I don’t mind if my love for the open source community becomes a documented metric.
