This post is basically to encourage people to check Linux out. What is stopping you from ditching Microsoft?

Edit: I forgot to mention this but if someone is looking for a recommendation for a Linux distribution then I'd personally recommend Manjaro KDE or just any of the popular distributions with KDE Plasma as the Desktop Environment really. Edit 2: For those who might be looking for more stability and don't need to have the most up to date software I'd recommend Kubuntu.

    Moved off windows a few years ago and haven't looked back except to laugh at and feel bad for windows users. Can you imagine paying for an OS and then tolerating ads and everything else? Lmao

    Obviously it's easier said than done, but I've learned a lot and have a fairly stable system that I can actually enjoy using.

    I like Proxmox as a hypervisor, and PCI-passthrough my GPU for desktop usage. This lets me run other VMs and containers at the same time for various services like Jellyfin. Backups are also a breeze with this configuration.

      Pay for Windows? When their own business model makes it physically impossible for them to do anything about you cracking it? HWIDgen exists and basically fakes your pc being an OEM machine and it scaleable so once you crack it once, you can just keep using the same key lol.
