Tell me you judged the article by its title without telling me…
If you had read it, you’d notice that the author does not feel it is a game changer.
But still, even by reading the title alone, you mussed the quotation signs. It is not the author who calls it game changer but the chief developer.
Nice thank you!
Good tips thank you!
The major difference for me was that drives are shown in the mnt folder
This is not intuitive but like much other, makes sense once you know it
As a new Linux, the hardest time that i have had with it, has been with my hard discs, and having software recognize them or save data on them. Its been a mess to find them on different file explorers and file pickers. I know that longtime users will explain the logic to it, but it is not intuitive. Also understanding root drive, root access and root user. Still not 100% sure i understand it. Things need to get simpler and more self explanatory for Linux to replace windows.
Or just into this
Im not convinced.
But i guess i never will. Just yesterday i needed an ftp client. I went to the software manager to down had it and realised it was already preinstalled.
It saves me maybe 8 sec?
If that was the case they would add a step in the installation giving you the option to have no preinstalled apps and choose between currated apps based on your expected use for this pc.
I dont argue that its a great service. I am slightly opposed on it being a forced option
That does not make any sense if you read my comment. This is my point exactly. They are not saving me any time because i won’t use matrix and i wouldn’t have spent time installing it. . They may even be making it harder for me if i chose to uninstall it
Why have preinstalled apps though? Hear me out… i am very new to Linux and enjoying it quite much.
But most of the preinstalled programs that came with mint, i have not touched and never will.
There’s a lot of gun refference in that school class. Are you by any chance in the US?
Those bridges, do they actually block META from tracking what I do? I dont really mind them eves dropping but the constant tracking all the time was the reason why I dont have facebook
I dont know for sure but my guess is that the self hosted wordpress sites are the majority of wordpress sites. Self hosted are also the sites hosted on webservers and VPN etc. Anything not hosted by wordpress really.
This is for their hosted solution though. Wordpress.org is not the same as Wordpress.com
Could this mean Linux phones?

Interesting! Ill check that out with mint!
As a fellow user in similar situation, i can tell that i had tried dual boot a few times but would just switch to windows when i wanted something done that didn’t work on linux
3 weeks ago i went full Mint install and left windows altogether. This forced me to find solutions to problems that i otherwise would solve by just switching to windows. Dont expect everything to work though. You will need to tweak some things and you may even need to do some things differently than youre used to. But isn’t this why we change in the first place?
Although i like wordpress i dont trust Automatic. Its a gut feeling and I dont know why
In the terminal, why can’t i paste a command that i have copied to the clipboard, with the regular Ctrl+V shortcut? I have to actually use the mouse and right click to then select paste.
(Using Mint cinnamon)
I’m doing my part! Just moved to Mint, 3 weeks ago. I had tried with a dual boot previously but moving over to a clean install forced me to find solutions instead of just switching to windows
It makes the statement worse but not the article. I find the article pretty objective
