  • What I like with Linux:

    • no restart behing my back to force install updates when I have pending work
    • no bloat
    • customizable (win11 forcing to having windows of same app groupped grinds my gears!)

    Though, it’s not perfect (I guess I have slight hardware issues on my end), I feel way more relaxed (really) when using Linux than Windows.




  • A lot of input in the comments, I’ll just add mine in the mix.
    I guess wanting to change the OS for someone can be good if:

    • the current Windows version is EOL and/or has security issues/concerns,
    • the hardware is too old to upgrade,
    • the current user is fed up with crashes, popups, slowliness etc…

    Now, I would go for Mint anyday instead of Ubuntu, because the default matte desktop feels more confortable when coming from windows.

    As for Scrivener, I don’t even know what it is, but Wine is quite good recently, so if you’re tech/linux savy, you could try to make it work.
