Compadre esa expresión "el lavarropas" ¿sabe en que país es común?
You don't choose Linux. Linux choose you. That being said
It's not that hard actually but you need a lot of free time and motivation to keep learning. When I was a student I was deep on Archlinux + DWM / AwesomeWM + lots of console applications now that I am a functional working men I just stick to a stable distro (Currently Debian Testing) I think the secret is have good hardware compatibility and if you want to try some weird configuration just use a VM first or just use a immutable distro.
Gracias, no conocía ese dato 🤙🏼
