Originally I planned to switch in October when support for W10 runs out, but it seems my PC made the push for me.

At the start of July some issue with windows that caused my system to freeze and then get stuck on boot when restarted finally bricked my system for a 2nd time this year and I was forced to reinstall the OS again. So, instead of wasting another 4 months on dealing with all the crap windows has been throwing my way lately, I just jumped ship to mint.

3 weeks in and, so far so good. Really got around to all the personalization it allows over windows. Learning to run a pc mostly through the terminal has been a step out of the comfort zone, but an enjoyable one tbh

The attendance for the next FIFA cup was already looking bad, and I can’t imagine the US government wanting your history of online activity to help it even a bit.
