Yep, it’s the same! Option key during startup is the only difference 🙋🏼♀️
Y’all got this! Good luck 🍀
Did this dude get VC $ by presenting The Simpsons “Who Shot Mr. Burns?” wtfff is this nonsense 🙄
Ooh, interesting! Thanks for sharing! TIL 🤓
Ooh, I gotcha! LMDE doesn’t default to gnome or kde. LMDE installs w cinnamon.
Not sure I’ve seen much of lxqt. Will def give that a once over our if curiosity!
They’re both great starters, imo! Xfce or LMDE is a solid choice for Linux beginners.
Xfce was a little too minimal for me & iirc it’s canonical-based. I chose lmde specifically bc I prefer Debian. I can’t recall if I had any major issues setting up either of them. I think it also just comes down to visual/aesthetic preferences. They’re both highly customizable so either way you’re good!
I’m gonna set up xfce for my dad on an old Dell desktop & i’m sure he’ll appreciate how close it is to windows right out of the box. 📦
Great write up, but OP stated they’re not computer savvy. I’m sure more ppl have used flash drives than used VMs. They are also building a new pc so gotta get those distros from somewhere/another machine.
Another option would be to grab a couple of 4GB or more flash drives and try each one by booting from the flash drive before committing to one.
Linux Mint LMDE is always my recommendation to friends & fam who are leaving Win & Mac environments. LMDE bc ease of use/install & stability.
Slight learning curve, but that goes with anything new to a person when it comes to tech. Linux Mint forums are also legit for quick answers.
Good luck regardless of what you choose! Don’t let the negative feedback get you down! 🍀

They were holding off so they can “innovative” this capture button into the 16 😂
Fascist/right-wing bullshit. You’re not missing out on anything.
FUCK ALL THE WAY OFF ❌
I use mint btw
I’m digging it so far! Definitely nice to have more FF-based options 🦊
TIL! TY for sharing this! 😇
Ooh, what does this do?
