Being Gentoo user myself IMHO it is one of the better distros for beginners - given person has specific required traits like you know he/she has lots of time to tinker with their computer and loves it. If they do then something quote on quote easy to install might not necessarily be the best choice for recommendation. If its too easy and looks too much like say Windows it will loose on ease of use with Windows still and otherwise don't interest the person. I know it from myself.

When you have a problem with linux what do you do? You google the error message? What do you get? More often than not answers that are wrong or more likely based on and old version which won't work anymore. Worse yet, the distribution you've been using for years goes away.

Linux (including Windows) fanatics should look at this video, again and again, to clear their confusion about Linux. Arguments, counterarguments, endless counterarguments against counterarguments, unnecessary time squandering, all such absurdity would've ceased to exist if they've ever tried to understand Linux the way you described Linux here, in the first two minutes. It doesn't take an extensive amount of time to figure out how Linux works intrinsically and how it differs across providers depending on their target, usually known as "distros". Probably those who know Linux never tried to explain it to themselves as easily as you did in this video so that they could describe Linux better without that excessive discord we get to see these days on the internet. What you posted one year ago is getting more crucial day by day.

Thanks to your videos I'm giving Linux Mint a serious trial as windows 11 is getting ever more irritating and "invasive". There are a few utilities and programs not available on Linux but only about a handful. I'll keep windows on my main desktop pc (also need it for my job) but have installed Linux on a laptop. So far with success and I avoid the annoyances of windows (constant notifications, pushing to buy stuff, onedrive hijacking my folders etc etc etc). Linux has it share of annoyances but less so than windows π

Mister Fiat is bang on the money. We learned to live with win10. win 11 is the last straw. I'm 'techy' enough to adopt Linux, but my wife isn't. So it is encouraging to see Linux distros stepping up to the mark for casual users. 3 years of further development before win10 eol, and I'm sure I can make it painless for her. Great job on this and all your videos.

I like the way your videos are presented. Some may not agree with me, but that's okay. I've been a Linux user and manager for about 10 years. I've noticed that getting into Linux is easier now than it was in the past. They're definitely "ready-for-prime-time", despite the constant changes. Like how the chorus in the Beatles song "Getting Better" goes, it is very true.

So this is going on 6 months later. I switched to linux at the end of 2019 when I built my first computer in forever. I never looked back. I rarely touch the terminal. I've installed programs with Wine 7, and if I need it I have a VM of windows 10. I started that up after 3 weeks just to let it update. And since the beginning of the Pandemic I've used this PC for gaming. I had the time, so I solved that problem for myself. Now Valve is solving that problem for everyone with the Steam Deck and SteamOS 3. Never been a better time to leave Windows behind.

Hi Christopher, I really like your Linux guides. Where I often struggle is when it comes to dual and especially multi boot (e.g. Windows 10, Linux Mint, Manjaro, etc.) and therefore to bootloaders. Let's give you two examples: Usually, the last operating system installed will be the one that boots first and whose bootloader is (first) loaded when starting the computer. Unfortunately, Manjaro won't start from the Linux Mint bootloader. So, it would be important to install Manjaro as the last operating system. However, when using Timeshift in Linux Mint, it will change the boot order in the UEFI (I guess), so Manjaro won't be startable without restoring the boot order to the previous state in the UEFI. Therefore, I am thinking about getting rid of Manjaro. I don't use it too frequently anyhow. So how can I install the Linux Mint Bootloader over the Manjaro one, so that I can safely delete Manjaro from my drive and give Mint more space instead? There are of course many other possible scenarios! These are just two examples to give you an idea of the possible problems that might occur. Maybe, this would make a great video: - Partitioning drives - Creating a multi-boot (automatic installation of the bootloader by the last installed system) - Changing bootloader afterwards (when deleting an operating system) - Changing the boot order in UEFI/BIOS from an operating system (instead of from the UEFI/BIOS menu, if possible). Perhaps this might also be of interest to others. I like your calm, sympathetic and mostly humorous way of explaining things clearly. Thank you very much for your videos!

I was hoping you'd go more into the /dev directory and files associated with mounting drives like fstab (I think its in /etc). I had an adventure setting up an openMediaVault server to work with a network drive, without being able to use the remote plugin they have, and I was hoping this would make some of the things I learned fit together a bit more... If you'd be interested in making a 1.1 or 1 advanced, or something like that to cover this in greater depth I'd love to watch it.

I'm transitioning from Windows to Linux using Oracle Virtualbox. The transition is fairly straightforward but the applications represent another hurdle. Linux has just about every application has and this road, like a distrobution has its snags. The first breakthrough in ANY contecx, whether choosing a distro or application, is using a well defined manual that explains the terminology with examples. I do this for a hobby because at 71 years old it reminds me of learning DOS when I was 30 years old. For sure, there is nothing new in this world except change. No one ask for this free information but if I had a do-over I would focus on cyber security with a heavy background in Linux. Don't get bogged down with applications, unless you need it, but focus on cyberspace. BTW, I watch Explaining Computers each Sunday night in Birmingham Al and really give a thumbs up with each episode. Thanks everyone. Jesus is "my Lord".
