Am the the only weirdo who swapped over to Linux without knowing a ton about it, and didn’t really have any issues? I just started with a Windows-user-friendly distro (Mint Cinnamon), and then just looked up how to get through any weird (to me) issues that I encountered over time. Gradually learned more about what’s under the hood as I went.

But I see these memes and stories about “I tried Linux, it lasted a week and I went back to Windows” here and there.

It’s not scary. Am I missing something? XoD

My friends never followed me.

I’m alone in the dark (mode).

It should be VIM

No one comes back from VIM.

Those who say they have are dirty liars… or have it paused in the background.

Im about to take the same plunge into Linux. Any tips for a new comer?
