    Ahhh that’s kind of like how it started for me. Now the things I can do on Linux far outstrip the things I can’t, if I switched back to Windows.

    Have you messed around with different desktop environments (DEs) yet? That’s my favourite part of Linux. I can’t imagine using a laptop without tiling window manager

      I’m back to Windows unfortunately.

      I miss gnome with a passion. I loved the win key overview, it was great for dragging windows across monitors.

        Haha no worries, you are not your OS XD

        I do hope you give it another shot sometime. I think I dual booted for a couple years before switching over completely, anyway.

      To be honest, DEs are one of the biggest things I dislike about trying to use Linux. Nothing works with each other, solutions for one don’t work for another and unless you spend weeks configuring them they all look and function the same.

      Windows and Mac are simple. There’s one option, it works well and doesn’t need a bunch of tweaking to make it tolerable (at least to me)
