Just like migrating from Reddit to Lemmy it’s the same as migrating from Windows to Linux, there’s shortcomings and learning curve and the more I use Lemmy the more I hate about Windows, because unlike reddit Lemmy is open source and open source softwares communities is more popular than proprietary communities and people like to shit on them (and I loved it). (Sorry for horrible English)

    Welcome to the Linux world! Don’t get discouraged by the learning curve. It’ll vary by distro and what tasks you wish to accomplish. Remember: you’re re-learning or first learning a new system. Many conventions are the same. Some are different. Ask for help when you need it. You’ll find many people who are willing to guide you as you go. As time goes on, you’ll pick up steam and your growth will expand exponentially.

      Coolest thing is that when you got yourself up to speed, very little will change in the future, and if there are changes, you can choose to upgrade your system to them, or not.

      I feel windows was the stable, simple platform where stuff just worked. Today it’s not always working(like sound and music) and on top of that everything needs different workarounds, workarounds that won’t work anymore 1 day when some forced change will happen to your system.

      Welcome!
