    I probably do two installations, one out-of-the-box Linux and Arch for learning Linux from scratch. great overview and good to see Linux version out there were interested day to day user can get their hands on without dealing so much with terminal.

      Indeed. The really nice part is that the newer versions of Linux Desktops help you transition in a easy manner and it gradually teaches you the advantages of mixing terminal use for more power than you can leverage out of UI. Don't get me wrong, I came form Windows and OSX and I was able to achieve more in Linux by just using UI interface, basically the Desktop. When I got into terminal it felt like I entered the GOD realm :D

      @@TheLinuxWayToday Im still mac main user, but like and hate it. I know from ppl, they were sick with windows or mac, tried Linux and were totally overwhelmed from the need of using terminal and view days and weeks they switched back. But nowadays especially with Linux Mint ex Windows are staying and are happy to have made the transition.

      @@MrTR909 I will make a video to why I moved to Linux form Windows and OSX, Apple really humped the bump they held my PC hostage for 1 month and 2 weeks almost. It was the last straw in a very long behavioral pattern that demonstrated they can do what ever they like without impunity, I wanted to prove them wrong and in the process I discovered freedom. :D

    if you could release your first video one day earlier, it would made this day easier
    because yesterday i had my first linux installed and now after 8 hours i can proudly say "i use arch btw"

      Glad to see a fellow Arch Linux user! I can relate, arch without an OS such as CahcyOS is difficult, but you learn a tons of stuff : D
      Go for Cachy OS, you'll love it!

    Yesterday i switch to linux, my use case is learning backend programming, so far i use fedora, love the ui, but i think i'll switch to arch.. i already make bootable in my flash drive, but when i switch boot into usb, nothing happened.. any solution?

      Arch Linux is really great but ti takes time and patience, best is to install Cachy OS, it'll make your life easier. To your problem I am not sure what is wrong, maybe the USB did not got flashed properly. I use in generally Balena Etcher to make USB bootable. Try with that one more time, see if you get any different results.
      Join Discord as well, there are a dozne of Linux communities ready to help in the chat! let me know how it went!
      Also, when you boot, make sure you select USB drive to boot first from your BIOS.

      @@TheLinuxWayToday thank you for the suggestion bro. I use balena etcher and also use rufus too to create bootable. I got the iso files from mirror singapore. Maybe wrong iso download or possible didnt compatible with ryzen 5

      ​@@bd.30824 Strange, Linux in generally works well for older machines as well. Rufus is good for Windows users as well, and in fact it works only in Windows.
      Technically you would need at least 2 - 4 GB of ram (4 fo more up to date Linux desktop version). I do not think it is a question of CPU.

      @@TheLinuxWayToday yep im confuse lol. my machine more than enough, i use 64gb flash drive for bootable, i already do all that stuff in the wiki. But same problem arrgh 🤣 Maybe try another distro

      @@bd.30824 The size of the USB drive in generally it is between 4 to 8 gb. If you have a 8 or 16 GB UDB drive then you are good to go for any Linux distribution.
      However, when you install it on the PC some of those Linux distros require 4 GB of RAM available for the install and a minimum of 20 - 30 GB of SSD or HDD.
      I usually try Linux distros on a Virtual Machine on my computer, see how they work, if the install works as advertised then do a USB bootable and try to install.
      Another advice I can offer is to have one SDD for the Operating System only and one SSD or HDD for anything else you are working and want to keep. This way it is simpler in the install phase, just select ERASE DISK (the one you want to install one) and you're done : D
