Install Linux. Saying it yet again. Be done with this crap, install Linux, if really really necessary, have wincrap in a VM, and now enjoy your computer

To anyone who reads this: I know everyone talks about Linux around Lemmy, and that you've already been offered to install Linux a million times.

I understand how much it puts you off.

But this time, give a try. For real. Try it, there's nothing to lose.

The reason we don't ever shut up about it is because Linux is just so much better that many of us don't imagine how we lived without it. Unironically.

Spend a week on Linux. Install Mint, or Manjaro, and run them - not in VM, use dualboot. You can easily delete Linux afterwards if you don't like it, straight out of Windows. Run it for a week.

And you'll be like us.
