Unless you own the business I don't judge you for being a faggot win 10 user.

I do not own the business. I do not use Windows in my own business dealings unless the contract calls for it or otherwise requires it.

Only problem is it has SystemD since version 18 or so. Great otherwise and no one else is developing on top of Devuan yet anyway.

Arch Linux or Devuan. I have no experience with OpenSUSE or BSD, but some people like them, depending on what your needs are.

OpenSUSE owners are in bed with MS and have been since the days of Vista.

New users jumping from windows should go with Linux Mint. Would be great if Mint ran on top of Devuan though.

Mint was my first Linux OS, too. I had a lot of random problems that went away when I tried distros closer to a base model that I could build up. I guess if I could go back and do it again, the advice I gave is the advice I would have given to myself back when and I'd probably be a year ahead on my Linux skillz.

Arch isn't the way to go for someone jumping ship from Windows but it's where to go when you want control. Ubuntu or Mint, I like the later more, is where a windows power user who has limited *nix experience should tred.

Get four drives. One for Windows. One for a Linux OS. Two for all your person stuff. Mirror the drives that have all the person stuff on them, that way if one crashes, your stuff is still on the other. Buy all SSD

If you're just using the computer for computer things like watching videos or internet, then a Debian Linux distribution will give you what you want.

If you're gaming, then I don't know.

I know the article is shit when they mention Mary Jo Foley. That cunt has been an M$ shill for at least 15 years.
