Hey, I’m krimson, a linux user/gamer, open-source enthusiast. I come here looking for an open source alternative to reddit. I think I found it!

  • Linux isn’t really like this anymore depending on the distro you install. I switched to linux around 2 years ago when windows 11 was announced, switched to Pop!_OS. My idea was to dualboot with windows 10 until I don’t need it anymore but messed up during the installation and eradicated windows. Best mistake of my life. I don’t do much heavy gaming, most of the games I play are native and the one’s that aren’t run perfectly with proton. Really, I never needed windows in the first place. I slowly learned to do stuff on the command line but most popular distros have graphic interfaces for installing software, updating, etc.

    Very easy to use, other than since PopOS uses the gnome interface it doesnt have a similar workflow to windows, a bit more similar to mac, actually. Takes a while to get used to but I’ve lesrned to love it. You can also install other interfaces like KDE and cinnamon that look more like windows by default easily with 2 commands you can get from a youtube tutorial.
