    Last year with Ubuntu.

    Installed it on an old laptop. Booted once then never again.

    Installed windows. Worked like a charm.

    This is Ubuntu, the OS that makes all the decisions for you like windows.

      That’s crazy, I’ve never personally used Ubuntu so I can’t comment on it.

      But I’ve used other great one’s like Mint and PopOS, I’d say they’re pretty easy to install and use, especially if you’re aiming for a primary clean install over a dual boot.

      I’ve installed windows enough times as well to confidently say a clean install with maximum privacy settings and debloat takes atleast equal if not more efforts.

        As someone who dual boots Linux Mint and Windows 11, can confirm, Mint is a much simpler install process…
