    I’m not what one would call a “user” by any means. I was just tired of Microsoft and their practices.

    And I’ve had very little need for any kind of customization as the people behind my distro have pretty much seen to everything a “dumb dumb” like me need it for.

    Plus, I like that I can find solutions for most of the small problems I might find with a quick internet search. And if that fails, there’s multiple forums where I can ask for help.

    It’s been a most welcome change.

    So thank you, Linux Wizards.

      “And I’ve had very little need for any kind of customization as the people behind my distro have pretty much seen to everything”

      I think that’s one of the key points (and Nick kinda quickly passed over it) – the Linux desktop environments have constantly iterated over options and changes that customization at this point is more a matter of showing off rather than being a necessity to make things workable or usable
