What are some things you wish you had known when switching to Linux? - eviltoast

I start: the most important thing is not the desktop, it’s the package manager.

    Yeah, but you just describe 2 features on specific apps that don’t need to be enabled by default.

      I mean, even the SATA over UAS is a pain with Linux, since the new implementation sacrifices SMART data for faster RW speeds on Linux, and you have to fallback manually on the old driver to read SMART data on external HDDs. On Windows, you just use CrystalDiskMark and it works.

      Linux needs you to do a little work here and there for such things. I do not really eject everything safely on Linux. The feature on Thunar is handy.
