    Not sure it’s a good idea to recommend Arch Linux to newbies migrating from Windows; maybe prioritize Mint or similar?

      this is not a recommendation post. this is what i personally use as i said in the title. i would always recommend Mint to a Linux beginner

        I don’t personally have issues with nonprofits or FOSS as exceptions to my own personal boycott of US companies, but if anyone is looking for an alternative to Signal, SimpleX is probably the closest analog.

        It’s decentralized and funded globally. It’s based in the UK.
