I work in IT but thats 99 percent windows with hardly any linux so i wanted to try something new. I dont mind command line and i'm not afraid to break the system. I'm of the mind that if i break it too bad there is someone that can fix it or i can just reinstall. [15:25] I backup data to a nas so i wont lose anything. [15:25] donnie: if you were to ask me, bash, lxd and ansible [15:26] maybe apt, too [15:26] see I know what those are but i've never used them very much. [15:26] windows 11 will finally have something kind of like package management integrated by default [15:27] but just for additional software, not the OS itself [15:27] i've used windows 11 it's kinda annoying really. it moved everything around and hid some stuff from the everyday user. [15:27] makes it very difficult from and IT perspective [15:27] this wasn't supposed to be a recommendation [15:28] more like "20 years later they almost arrived there, too" [15:28] tomreyn, sorry about that [15:28] heh, no need to be sorry there [15:30] so I gotta ask. Mint or Ubuntu? [15:31] that's up to you, we really only disucss ubuntu on ubuntu channels usually [15:31] I used mint before but I find it's not quite different enough from windows. I found it hard to change the themes too. but that might have been a me problem [15:32] that makes sense. never thought of it that way. I keep forgetting that mint is it's own thing and not just a ubuntu that looks different. [15:33] so is there anything that i should do for a new install that isn't on the how to guides? [15:33] I've googled a bit but usually it's the normal update stuff [15:34] donnie: it's all personal preference and use case [15:35] makes sense. [15:35] i'm using it for an everyday computer
