1 year agoMy first experience was with Red Hat 5.x back in the late 90’s, I got ahold of a huge book that came with it on CD. Since then I’ve used several distros both on my PC as dual boot, but also running a server. I’ve always defaulted to Windows again because of gaming mainly, and I’m honestly not a big fan of booting back and forth between different systems.
I’ve currently got EndeavourOS installed and am playing around seeing if I can get everything to work, and so far it seems this may be the time I actually switch for good.
I started with a book about Red Hat 5.x that included a cd with the OS. I generally went back to Windows after a while (except i did run a server on an old pc for quite a while), but tried I again every few years.
I always liked the idea of Linux, but gaming kept making me go back to Windows. Early last year I tried installing EndeavourOS alongside windows and have stuck with it since. My new PC that I got later that same year has never seen windows.
I’m loving it, and don’t foresee a return to Windows.
