2024 is the Year of Linux on the Desktop, at least for my boyfriend. He’s running Windows 7 right now, so I’ll be switching him to Ubuntu in a few days. Ubuntu was chosen because Proton is officially supported in Ubuntu.

    Power to you, friend. But with current snap store out of the box it’s really hard to recommend Ubuntu to anyone. Linux Mint seems such a better choice to newbies.

    At the end of the day it’s not really a big deal, people should just use whatever feels best.

      What is wrong with the snap store? It’s not something I’m aware of.

      I go to terminal. I sudo apt-get

      I get Firefox, I get my VPN, I get deluge, I get my audio player.

      I use those things. I sleep well at night.
