Finally took the plunge.

Hey! (Almost) brand new Linux user here.
I've dabbled with a few different distros here and there and used Mint on an old laptop, but never really achieved fluency in Penguin.

I decided last night to switch over for good and leave the windows behind.
Already experiencing a few issues, but I think I can get it figured out if I spend the time on it.

It's good to be here :D

Welcome to the Linux Mint forums! Hopefully you can figure the issues out but don't hesitate to make a topic to ask for help if needed.

I like that expression

Welcome to the forums! Hope you figure out your issues

Welcome to the Mintverse!

I've been using Mint daily for about four months, have ditched Windows entirely on any home computers that once ran it, although I still have to use Windows at work (Yuck!) and I even find myself using my beloved, though aging, MacBook Pro less and less. I had experimented with Mint a few years ago and found it to be quite satisfactory, but when I came back to it in October, I was amazed to find it had become a mature, stable, and user friendly OS. While I was expecting it to be a good replacement for my Chromebook, with which I was growing increasingly frustrated, it is now my daily go-to, at least for personal work, and I usually don't even think about what operating system I'm on. Every now and then, I think about getting a new Mac, but then I think 'why bother when I've already got what I need'.
