   look, i’m obviously one of those crusty, old command-line-first linux guys, but hear me out: you don’t need to be “culturally linux” to use linux. you can just install it and use it and not make it part of your identity.

   any of those distros people talk about will work fine, great even, right out of the box: popos, mint, fedora, elementary, zorin. it doesn’t really matter.

     all those things the nerds dogpile into the comments section to argue about? they don’t really matter. we’re enthusiasts and we argue because we’re enthusiastic. that’s all. ignore us.
