>There are a lot of different distributions called Distros. There is a lot of infighting between Linux users over which is "da bestest" so don't get caught up in that crap at first. You have to learn to crawl before walking and then before running. So the LiveCD/DVD's are the best way to go. You can use USB sticks too to run portable versions from there too. It's way faster to run from a USB3 port on a USB3 stick for example than running from a DVD that has to load to RAM for example.Thanks anon I'm gonna see if I can do this. It's admittedly confusing but I'm thinking about trying mint ( although I heard it's a worse version of windows? )
>nyhow, Linux is cool, I like it. But it's a huge learning curve compared to Windows or even Mac which is based on Linux apparently.Yeah the learning curve scares me a bit and I'm kinda retarded. I think I want to learn this though to get better at programming and escape windows bloat.
>One other thing I would suggest you look into right away on YouTube is using Oracle's Virtual Machine software called Virtualbox. It's free and open source but it can allow you to install linux as a host OS and windows as a guest OS. This lets you run Linux as your secure daily driver and using some of your old Windows apps when needed in a virtual computer/machine that's booted from within LinuxThat's really cool! I'm gonna look into that
>>1551625>Don't count on stopping the bullet, count on not getting shot in the first place. I look at tons of hentai and never got anything.Even on sketchy sites like hentaifox? I've almost gotten infected on windows a few times with stuff bypassing my adblock. Linux does scare me because windows defender isn't there
>ThunderbirdDumb question but can it see my emails and/or passwords? I've avoided using 3rd party email managers before.
>It's easy and most games work out of the boxGood to know!
Thanks for the answers anons
