First Linux install ever (piefed.cdn.blahaj.zone)

I went with Linux Mint (Cinnamon) since I wanted a very beginner friendly experience, and I’m liking it so far!

Welcome to the fold! Linux Mint is great and gaming works too if that's your thing. Windows is dead. LONG LIVE LINUX

I ran a little test game of Balatro to make sure games ran alright, and to my surprise everything seems good! (knock on wood) I always thought installing was going to be a lot more painful, but so far the worst part was backing everything up.

and to my surprise everything seems good! (knock on wood)

After a few aborted attempts to switch to Linux, over the years, that has been exactly the vibe of my latest journey.

"So this all just works now?" has been my repeated surprised thought.

Standard disclaimer: I don't have any hardware by Nvidia. Not by choice, I was just feeling broke when Nvidia got hot.
