Hello to everybody!

Post by icg937 »

Hello. I've started using Linux Mint two weeks ago, although I'm on GNU/Linux since 2011. This was the first distro I could connect to internet at that moment, without any obscure commands or drivers.

I come from Fedora, my last distribution. It was very heavy to my RAM, and I couldn't use it properly. I tried to install Arch (again), but I forgot how to partition my hard drive to UEFI, and it never booted. So, after some research on Distrowatch, I decided to come back to Mint. I'm happy so far, although I've some doubts and questions, which I'll post later on the right places.

Just let's hope I won't jump again from distribution to distribution, it's a tiring job.
