Hey 👋 dear Linux Community,

I'm still kinda new to Linux (started using this year 😅) I already made it to my main OS, even if I still missing some things which I used on Windows, anyway. What I wanted to ask you guys, what recommendations do you have for Linux Mint (Cinnamon)? In terms of security, optimization, (a way to make the UI looking modern ;-;) and privacy? I would be very interested in what you do guys to optimize your Linux setup :) I'm pretty technical, so there is nothing which could overwhelm me (probaly).

Thx! 🤍

Security is somewhat debatable, but privacy-wise, nothing beats open-source operating systems (Linux/BSD/AOSP).

+1 for Lenovo Legion/HP Omen.

In this order, IMO.

I never had success with archinstall, just the regular installation.

It’s kinda weird, actually.

I’d go for Linux Mint/Fedora Linux.

Another thing, I would’ve play with it first on a VM, like VirtualBox.

I wouldn’t immediately wipe Windows if I were you. I’d do dualboot with Windows.

Then, when you’re ready, stay with dualboot system or go full neckbeard /j

I like the vibe of 4 and 6.

Then 5, 2, 1, 3, that have ‘professional’(?) look.

Windows update that ruined 3 months of work.

And if that doesn’t work, you just start to pray /j

I’m so sorry.

But they still won’t be able to remove all of the baked-in spyware.

Snaps, I think I’ll pass.

Even without them, I don’t have time to uninstall/remove everything I don’t need.

DIY distros suit my needs more, but thanks anyway.

user is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

Am I running the risk of getting my Google account banned for logging into the Aurora Store or a custom rom like GrapheneOS?

I guess there is no need to introduce what a Degoogled phone is (or a custom ROM without google services, like GrapheneOS is) and the Aurora Store is basically said in a crude way the Google Playstore but without the need to log in to your Google account, quite useful in my opinion....

Like other comments suggested, don’t take the risk, create a separate account.

Download Linux Mint/Fedora ISO.

Make a bootable flash drive with Rufus for Windows systems, or DD for Unix-like OSs.
