I have grown up around Linux and have had people like my dad use it near me my whole life. I even booted a fedora version once on a very old machine when I was younger as a way for my dad to teach me about Linux. Sadly I never really caught on at the time.
I am ready to really jump in now. Is there a beginners guide/pros cons comparison for different distribution of Linux? I am also curious about how well things like matlab, solidworks, and Office suit/libra office work in Linux.
Thank you!
Linux mint uses flatpak instead of snap. That’d be my reason to go with them instead of plain Ubuntu.
I mean I use all of them - flatpak, snap and AppImages on my Mint installation. And I’m pretty sure you can use flatpaks on Ubuntu as well.
Sure. But it can be annoying to remove snap if you’re like me.
