I’m an educator, and my Windows PC crashed during my first period class.
I had a cinnamon mint USB drive in my bag. I booted to it, and it saved the day!
I don’t have anybody to tell just how much of a godsend that was, but I figured you guys might appreciate it!
WhyWouldTheOSDoThis.jpg
I downloaded r2modman and it worked out of the box. I found out shortly after that some modders moved to a new site and gale mod manager was now the recommended one. I tried and it didn’t work out of the box so I had to do some tinkering. Both of themworked fine on windows with no issues. Yes I am new to Linux and its a learning experience for me. I didn’t blame the OS, I said it didn’t seem as easy as everyone says. There is so much conflicting info and a million different distros that it all applies to differently and people neglect to mention all the details and a million of other little things that compound. Will I get it at some point after using it more? Yes. Has that time come when I’ve used the OS for a collective of maybe 4 hours here and there? No.
To pour oil on the fire (since you said you already decided on an OS), a lot of people recommend Linux Mint as a goto OS when moving from Windows, supposed to be the most similar experience.
Do you see why this might not be the right approach to build a community when someone is asking for help in a polite way?
