I made the switch yesterday - eviltoast

Just wanted to say I made the switch yesterday from Windows 11 to Fedora Linux, no dual booting. It took multiple installs though because the first two times I followed old instructions for installing the Nvidia drivers. The third time I found out that I can just install them through the software center when third party repositories are enabled and that worked like a breeze.

And I have to say it’s a really good thing that the installer for Fedora is getting an overhaul soon because Anaconda is horribly confusing in its UX.

Edit: just wanted to add a hyfetch screenshot:

    Great! Always good to see people leaving windows. As someone, who for about 15 years, said “linux isn’t ready yet” and then finally switched 99% to linux, it is very painful to use windows these days. I had to test something on windows the other day and literally had to reboot 4 times for updates because it had been like 2 months since I updated.
