Linux Mint
I finally had time to play, so I got up early and installed my first #Linux on my computer! Thanks to @grin ✅ for getting me interested in libre software to begin with, and this Linux thing in particular. I made up my mind to to this after another Windows 10 update, right in the middle of trying to do homework, messed stuff up and killed my printer. I already had backups, so I said screw this Windows interrupting me and killing my printer.
I put #Linux-Mint on today, meaning to install it alongside Windows just in case, but I must have done it wrong. I still couldn't boot into Mint after installing it, so I re-installed it in place of Windows, knowing how radical that would be for me. But Windows sucks! And I've been using Mint off a USB stick all week long and it's so easy and does everything I need it to do except

So, wow. I didn't mean to wipe away Windows at first but now I'm glad I did! I put back all my backed up files and I like the way Linux organizes them so I can just go to any document, picture, song, or video and pull it up instantly. I really like this clean look and quick performance. It's a LOT faster than Windows and works just as good at making homework and everything.
