Thanks to all you goody-two-shoes, I finally made the switch, plopped out the proverbial blue buttplug if you will. I am fully on Linux/GNU Operating System 25.04. I’m having a kid soon so wasn’t sure if I’d have time to make the switch, but just 300 unforgettable hours later, I’m riding the big purple penguin. I had some doubts, I was itching for that creamy feeling of big daddy Gates peering over my shoulder while I do the dirty. After my Windows VM crashed today, I knew I was at full parity with where I started, I literally got chills. Thanks everyone, I feel full again, wholly ;)
–What distro did you install?–
Nvm, I searched and it is Ubuntu 25.04 lol. I kept thinking there was a distro names “GNU Linus OS” that I never know about. So you’re purely on Linux now, congrats. Was the majority of the installation time on transferring data?
Ubuntu is a great distro, everything should work till forever if you dont mess around with system configs. Even if you like to tinker with system, Linux is easier to fix than Windows. Command lines can be scary at first but they really help.
Have you found a good FOSS alternative to Windows Recall by chance?

Hit the screenshot button often. Just gotta train yourself to screenshot often like they used to tell you to save documents.
I’m very much into privacy/FOSS so I have an old school Polaroid with no Bluetooth, where I manually screenshot my porn every 5 seconds with my left hand. Then I’ve been sending the pile every day to Satya Nadella at Microsoft HQ, Seattle via Snail Mail.
300 hours? What did you install?
Edit: nm, didn’t see the community name at first
Installation took 1 hour. Converting all my powershell scripts took 10. Copying my yummies from NTFS to Ext5 took 290 hours, I had to watch each and every one to be sure.
Did you remove the french language pack? That’s gonna be another 15 easy
That makes sense
Yummies? What’s that?

Gnu/Linux 25.04 and oddly colored poultry confused me a little bit, but congratulations nonetheless!
Going off the window decorations, I would say they are referring to Ubuntu 25.04
Yes, it’s Linux Inc.'s newest OS.
Congratulations! 🐧
But my god, 300 hours is a lot.
99% working in 10 hours. There’s always that last little blue anal bead dingleberrying around.
