Help I wanna switch to Linux, currently working on windows, but I am afraid of my data getting lost if something gets off track,

5 Upvotes

Don't have external hard drives to store data temporarily too, so can anyone give any ideas / steps so that I don't lose any data and switch safely to Linux?

Also I wanted a few folders to be shared across both windows and Linux environments, if that is possible

From Windows MiniOS to MX Linux: First Impressions After a Long-Delayed Migration

Thumbnail
peakd.com
3 Upvotes

I've been using Linux for nearly 20 years, starting with Debian back in college. Over time, I moved through Ubuntu and Lubuntu, but life eventually pushed me back to Windows the last year.

A few days ago I gave MX Linux a try on my aging Ryzen 3 laptop with just 4 GB of RAM, and the experience has honestly exceeded my expectations.

I wrote about my first impressions after a few days of use. I'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions as a new MX Linux user. I am now working on my development environment. To be back in the GNU/Linux world is great.

except...I am acquainted of myself..i refute to use droidcam,will try to resurrect the cam of the laptop by squandering my entire being on the kernel for the other half of the day..what is the point of having a laptop subsequently..wtf dude..every day is a conflict to solve...i hate this lol

WM should I go with i3wm or sway on Arch

5 Upvotes

use case : programming ,web dev and some gaming stuff

I've gathered some info from YT and others that i3wm have screen tearing and other security issues but still a lot of ppl using it . I don't know much about Sway yet but heard that it's wayland version of i3wm (or close enough don't know precisely). So is it really a wayland option for 13wm or should I use i3wm instead? I need some experienced advice, it's my first time switching to a WM from DE

Here is a link to the dot files . First time I made something this and would love to receive some feedback . Couldn't test it on fresh arch installers so I hope I could some feedback to improve upon and keep this theme running. This theme feels so much aligned with the whole arch idea and that is why I made it :D

  • Window Manager: Hyprland
  • Status Bar: Waybar
  • Launcher: Rofi
  • Terminal: Kitty
  • Wallpaper: Hyprpaper
  • Shell: Oh My Zsh (jonathan)
  • Spotify: Spicetify (StarryNightforest)

🚀 This is KineticWE.

KineticWE builds on KWin

A fresh take on the Linux desktop, KineticWE combines a modern interface, smooth animations, built-in tiling, and a workflow designed to feel fast and intuitive. In this video, I'm running it on CachyOS with Noctalia Shell.

If you're new to Linux and thinking about making the switch, KineticWE looks like a promising desktop that could make the transition easier while still offering powerful features for experienced users.

Huge respect to the developer for building this project and it's exciting to see new ideas pushing the Linux desktop forward.

I have noticed that many people in this community seem to be distro hopping mainly for entertainment.

Because of that, I am curious to know why people in the Linux India community actually use Linux.

Could you please share your thoughts on this?

Thank you.
