    Long time linux user: The worse problem is they don’t even tell WHICH manual is relevant to the issue.

    “How do I make my secondary drive auto-decrypt?” “RTFM”

    Could have at least said “man crypttab 5” so that I don’t have to waste 3 hours just trying to find the starting point.






  • As with any change, it will always include some gains and some losses. Until you are at peace with these you won’t be able to make the change.

    My first suggestion would be to find alternatives to these windows-only softwares and learn to use them while you’re still on windows. Play the shit out of the windows-exclusive games you play until you get bored of them.

    The choice of linux distro doesn’t matter as long as you go with one of the big ones (Debian, Fedora, Arch linux). You will run into issues anyways, might as well go with a distro you will easily find google results for.
