I currently use Bytestash. Used to use Obsidian, but the fact that all I have to do is pull up a webpage to copy and paste a command I need made ByteStash a better fit for me.

Would continually run into disconnect issues with Ubuntu and Debian with all my Bluetooth devices. Got tired of tinkering with it.

I gave up on Bluetooth and Linux, made sure the wireless peripherals I wanted had 2.4ghz dongles. Been using Logitech 2.4ghz lightspeed for a while. Dongle is plugged into a hub mounted under the desk. Use piper to get all my Logitech mouse features. No complaints.

Jump ship. Just know, windows will pull you back in, especially if you work in corporate/office work. I was doing my work from home on Linux for two years straight, then my work mandated windows 11 for everyone. It’s been a nightmare. I just want my xfce!

He touches on my major issue with all these companies, data mining without compensating the people that created that data. I have to pay for the operating system, get served ads, AND you get to make extra money off my information too? This kind of shenanigans would be tolerable with a free OS, or maybe one that compensated you like brave browser. The blatant fleecing of the consumer here is sickening. I’m glad data mining your screenshots is the last straw for people.

How bout rocm support for your own inference cards? Got an instinct mi25 I can’t do a damn thing with because it’s the only instinct card rocm does not support.

Don’t install on your main rig over your main hard drive. Don’t obliterate your windows drive, that will ease a lot of the intimidation, knowing you can always go back. Getting a cheep laptop or thin client to try distros out on will elevate that intimidation as well.

Start with what you have heard of and have been recommended repeatedly, Mint, popOS, Ubuntu, all great distros to learn on, have great documentation.

Also, read the docs. They are dry and long, but will always have the solution.
