Best quote: "In a world without walls, who needs Windows and Gates"
Bill Gates, "Windows & Gates"
You just missed a big opportunity to put change my mind
Linus torvalds actually said that
Linux still uses windows and all computers use gates. Logic gates.
@@animakuz I dont understand
When fixing things:
Linux = be root
Windows = reboot
Mac OS=wtf is this sh*t
Windows = reinstall
More like: Mac OS: shhh i'm just gonna not say anything so thy say that i'm stable OS
Mac OS = awwe shit this thing is busted already, gotta buy another mac, HAIL APPLE! BAAAAAAA~
Mac = Rebuy
Oh, so that's why NASA's supercomputer runs on Linux. I thought they just wanted to play Super Tux at 8K 60 fps
With mods ! Ultra 3D HD Tux player model
its so their workers cant play many games on the computer
They also have tux paint!
@@shadowfan982 *cough cough Proton cough cough*
Well, I would suspect either that on top of that linux doesn't force reboot your computer at a inconvenient time even when you told it not to 500 million times. Plus, most servers like NASA's sometimes need months and sometimes even years worth up zero down time which even windows 10 can't and doesn't even remotely promise to do for computers.
Linus should have explained Linux.
He will probably just tell you to go f yourself.
@@missionpupa church
You mean Torvalds ?
Thats literally the first person I thought of when I read about Linux's inventor Linus Torvalds.
He just did a video...
Linux will let you custom your OS to an unlimited degree, it will also allow you to screw up in ways that nobody has ever screwed up before which will make getting tech support somewhat difficult.
1973Washu Like Removeing Part Of The Kernel.
This. Absolutely this.
chexier, the only time i actually have problems is when either they decide to add or remove parts of the kernel, which can be adjusted to, i am actually believe it or not, using it now, matter of fact i am so used to thunar now that explorer just doesn't cut the mustard anymore, cool man.
just change your directory to the root and input "sudo rm -r ." and all your problems will be solved.

One of the first videos I watched when preparing to build my pc. I had installed mint on an old laptop due to stability issues with windows 10 and figured do the same on my pc. I installed ubuntu 16.04 on it and just started learning. Always wanting to do something else resulted in another project with much to learn. After awhile on ubuntu I had dealt with many issues that related to having a 1070 and decided to do arch. Complete change of pace but well worth it. Never an issue with arch unless I change something of course. After now it being 3 years I know the ins and outs of both my hardware and my software but of course still keep learning. I never regret choosing linux.
Good choice ! Manjaro did a great Job in deliver a awsome Distro in the Arch Enviroment. Fast, Newbfriendly, ..Bleeding Edge =) ..and yeah btw i use Arch too :P
If you're watching this because you are thinking about trying Linux:
Do it.

B: You can install unsupported software manually, but it is a bit more work than on windows since you will typically need to compile it with the make command which is not something your regular consumer would ever understand.

After what Microsoft did with windows 10, I fled to Linux Mint, and stayed there. Something I love about Linux is that there is no drive letters, instead everything is accessible from /
What's wrong with Windows 10? It's useful for some things. (i actually dual boot (or is it triple?) Windows, Mac, and Linux on one PC) I'm curious as to what they changed to make you flee.
Privacy issues and some hate the design.
I hate Spyware, which windows 10 basically have become, when Microsoft resets privacy settings, force updates, and making the windows 10 installation automatic.
Can you run Windows games without a huge performance loss?
Energy Core Some games run better but for the most part, no. If your argument for saying Linux is shit just because of games then you are an absolute child. Sorry for projecting if I was but I think it's implied.
Whenever I see a penguin I just point it out and say “LINUX!”
Ok linux
Also, on Linux, if something’s not in the package repo, get it on the web. If it’s freeware that you can’t get on Linux or Mac, use install it like you would on Windows and then use Wine to run it.
@@jackyzhu9761 I don't use pirated games,but can you install them on Linux pop os for example
@@jackyzhu9761 that's off topic but ok
TCA did I say it was lmao???
There are Linux distributions out now that can be installed and maintained pretty easily by the average user without ever touching a command line. Linux mint is a great example of this. Of course, knowing even the basics of the Linux command line will afford you much more fine grained control over how your system functions.
Effectivement, il faut penser aussi au débutant. Sinon, on est vite découragé par les manipulations pour la configuration. Linux Mint aide beaucoup. Il y a le nouveau, Linux windowsFX. Avoir des repaires, cela aide.

Linux needs more games (big thumbs up to Steam for supporting this at least) and we need better graphics driver support from AMD/Nvidia.
Nvidia (closed source) drivers works pretty well for me. AMD drivers suck balls
+Pencil Cake but that is the point, who uses closed source drivers on linux? pretty sure amd opensourced there drivers which are a lot better now
+iTr00oW No, they didn't and no, they still suck (in Linux, not in general).
Every 4th Game on Steam is available on Linux O.o
Also you can use something like Wine or PlayOnLinux which uses Wine, but make Installations much more easy.
+MrDavibu
Wine isn't a perfect alternative, however. Some games have issues and some won't work at all(particularly DX10+ games at the moment and games with certain DRM).
3:38 It is possible to add third-party repositories to the package manager, and gain access to apps not offered by the “official” repositories.
And don’t forget, the package management system offers a unified framework for managing automatic updates for *everything* you have installed.
It's awesome for me to see how linux has improved in desktop usability and software compatibility since the release of this video!
I read the title too fast, I misread it for Linus Explained
I'm not sure there is an explanation for Linus.
+Blood Angel which one though?
Which Linus? The skinny one that pays Luke.
Blood Angel maybe it was Linus Torvalds the guy who started linux
+Hidde Schat (SeddiHz) I don't suppose enough LinusMedia followers would be too interested in Torvolds as they're mainly Windows users. But then they could probably explain him a lot faster than Mr Sebastian.
I am lucky, I was raised in a Linux only house. My first computer had Ubuntu than I put Mint on it. Than many more distributions got put on it. To this day I still use Ubuntu as my daily driver. It doesn't matter what computer I get, Linux is getting put on it.
It works well. It's rock solid. It's very secure. Yup.. good decision. I use Mint myself. I like the "easy" stuff, and it's really easy to use.
i had it but i wanted to play Just Caue 2
LieutenantChestnut I dual boot... I game too..
I bet you're pretty young then, since the first ubuntu release was in late 2004 and the first release of mint was in 2006.
GRRRR!!! ME MAD!!! YOU USE WRONG DISTRO!!!! (me trying to be an angry linux nerd but honestly, I dont care. Use whatever works best for you)
When you hate constant updates from Windows and don't want to give money to apple
That and Windows 10 runs like ass on HDDs.
whats wrong with apple? i just now switched to mac because im tired of windows' shit
@@youtubesucks1111 Apple cost a lot more compared to a pc/laptop and they go out of their way to make things unrepairable, unless you do it through them only. A simple yet makes my point is this and they do far worse. They actually made up new screws that no one else had, to stop people even getting into the the computer. LOL and failed. I-fixet made screw heads to fit!
So because of this kind of attitude from Apple, most times you end up having to buying a new one, because the repair will cost more than a new machine. But if it had been able to open it up and actually fix things in side, most times it costs WAY less. I'm all for the right to repair. If I can't get it repaired where and by who I want, it isn't worth the money.
It's the reason I went Linux instead. By the way since the making of this video, things have improved a lot.
Still not quite there for the person who barely knows where to put thier computer there, but getting there. I'm not a Techie. But it is at the point that even someone like me, can kind of get around with copy and paste for instructions, if the simple solution doesn't work. Takes me a while, but I get there or try something else. But it is a sharp learning curve. But worth it. True not everything works on Linux, but it is getting there and for many there are other programs that may do the trick.
It is more a case of what are my needs now?
Will it do what I need?
Even for those that don't work, will it work in a virtual box for those?
It is a case of been willing to try new things and to accept it isn't going to be smooth sailing till you find your feet. It is just going to take time. As it improves and you improve using it, things will get easier.

yup. ive been using mint for about 3 years now and have only ever used a package manager once. the rest have been manual.
what about compiling the program. Once I compiled a 40mb binary, let's just say it took 3 hours.
yes, but that's the hard, unsafe way. the easy way is just a single command and you're done, plus you'll always get updates and never end up in "Dependency Hell" personally I only use the method you mentioned if I absolutely have to, otherwise you risk compromising the stability and security of your system.
this video popped up in my recommended and I thought the thumbnail said Explaning Linus and I thought... y'all are gonna need more than 5-10 min.
I couldn't agree more with your original thought process there
It would take probably ten years to explain linus sebastian
my friend was trying to get me to try Linux for a long time and I thought it was too hard. Then I got a PC with WinME installed and after dealing with that POS for a while, Linux was a walk in the park. Haven't used Windows since XP days.
Windows 7 is amazing.
That being said, I use Mint for my daily driver.

Hey Luke! What do you recommend for someone who wants a part-time career in Linux without completely changing careers? (I have a career in healthcare I really like) Might teaching be a viable option?
Hello, i need help, I dont know what distro is better for my computer it have an "intel celeron cpu 847 1.10 ghz 1.10 ghz processor" with 2gb Ram
*1)* You don't necessarily need to use the command line, so the statement about the steep learning curve is a bit over exaggerated
*2)* you can install software through the software manager OR by downloading it from the web and install it just like you would on windows
Exactly...
Repeat after me: "Linux is just a kernel, not an operating system. And by the way, you should call it GNU/Linux, because Richard Stallman says so."
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
Nice
ps: Im a sub.
linux sucks
It's a copypasta. The point is to get people who know about Linux to
correct the guy. So hey, maybe you'll end up in a Reddit screenshot!

No, Richard, it's 'Linux', not 'GNU/Linux'. The most important contributions that the FSF made to Linux were the creation of the GPL and the GCC compiler. Those are fine and inspired products. GCC is a monumental achievement and has earned you, RMS, and the Free Software Foundation countless kudos and much appreciation.
Following are some reasons for you to mull over, including some already answered in your FAQ.
One guy, Linus Torvalds, used GCC to make his operating system (yes, Linux is an OS -- more on this later). He named it 'Linux' with a little help from his friends. Why doesn't he call it GNU/Linux? Because he wrote it, with more help from his friends, not you. You named your stuff, I named my stuff -- including the software I wrote using GCC -- and Linus named his stuff. The proper name is Linux because Linus Torvalds says so. Linus has spoken. Accept his authority. To do otherwise is to become a nag. You don't want to be known as a nag, do you?
(An operating system) != (a distribution). Linux is an operating system. By my definition, an operating system is that software which provides and limits access to hardware resources on a computer. That definition applies whereever you see Linux in use. However, Linux is usually distributed with a collection of utilities and applications to make it easily configurable as a desktop system, a server, a development box, or a graphics workstation, or whatever the user needs. In such a configuration, we have a Linux (based) distribution. Therein lies your strongest argument for the unwieldy title 'GNU/Linux' (when said bundled software is largely from the FSF). Go bug the distribution makers on that one. Take your beef to Red Hat, Mandrake, and Slackware. At least there you have an argument. Linux alone is an operating system that can be used in various applications without any GNU software whatsoever. Embedded applications come to mind as an obvious example.
Next, even if we limit the GNU/Linux title to the GNU-based Linux distributions, we run into another obvious problem. XFree86 may well be more important to a particular Linux installation than the sum of all the GNU contributions. More properly, shouldn't the distribution be called XFree86/Linux? Or, at a minimum, XFree86/GNU/Linux? Of course, it would be rather arbitrary to draw the line there when many other fine contributions go unlisted. Yes, I know you've heard this one before. Get used to it. You'll keep hearing it until you can cleanly counter it.
You seem to like the lines-of-code metric. There are many lines of GNU code in a typical Linux distribution. You seem to suggest that (more LOC) == (more important). However, I submit to you that raw LOC numbers do not directly correlate with importance. I would suggest that clock cycles spent on code is a better metric. For example, if my system spends 90% of its time executing XFree86 code, XFree86 is probably the single most important collection of code on my system. Even if I loaded ten times as many lines of useless bloatware on my system and I never excuted that bloatware, it certainly isn't more important code than XFree86. Obviously, this metric isn't perfect either, but LOC really, really sucks. Please refrain from using it ever again in supporting any argument.
Last, I'd like to point out that we Linux and GNU users shouldn't be fighting among ourselves over naming other people's software. But what the heck, I'm in a bad mood now. I think I'm feeling sufficiently obnoxious to make the point that GCC is so very famous and, yes, so very useful only because Linux was developed. In a show of proper respect and gratitude, shouldn't you and everyone refer to GCC as 'the Linux compiler'? Or at least, 'Linux GCC'? Seriously, where would your masterpiece be without Linux? Languishing with the HURD?
If there is a moral buried in this rant, maybe it is this:
Be grateful for your abilities and your incredible success and your considerable fame. Continue to use that success and fame for good, not evil. Also, be especially grateful for Linux' huge contribution to that success. You, RMS, the Free Software Foundation, and GNU software have reached their current high profiles largely on the back of Linux. You have changed the world. Now, go forth and don't be a nag.
Thanks for listening.
I'd also like to interject.... But I have nothing to say. :(
How many people are copy-pasta-ing this blurb here? Or are you all one person?
+Daniel “pydsigner” Foerster probably a single troll. You judge whether trolls are people
If everything in the world was refered to in their full, complicated name states then nothing would ever get said. The rest of the world calls it linux, and if you want to call it "GNU plus Linux" and mention the fact that it is "made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX." and if you feel like mentioning that "Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project." then guess what :
HAVE A FUCKING GOLD STAR cause the rest of us don't actually give a shit.
I still need to learn Linux as I am unfamiliar with it.
Yeah! its an awesome OS.
You may check out series of linux videos here : ruclips.net/channel/UCpvElk74mjLnZpNhQC7Cxgg
Please like and support us !
As he said, it's an awesome OS. My main advice is to start by creating a Live USB key of a widely used distro (Ubuntu has, I think, the biggest community) and use it to see if your PC is fully compatible. It will allow you to access most of the OS capabilities without changing a thing on your machine (just know that everything you do will be erased when you shut it down and that it's not the best performance-wise). When you will be familiar with the basic features of the distro and have found solutions to your eventual problems, install it. Ubuntu has a nice, easy to use system for it. Check for online tutorials for detailed process and don't hesitate to ask questions of the forums if needed (just check if someone hasn't had your problem before (the chances of that happening on Ubuntu are really high due to its large and active community)).
Second advice: if you don't like the look of your distro (and to be faire, base Ubuntu and GNOME theme are quite ugly), know that you can modify a lot of things. The GNOME Desktop Environment used by Ubuntu (actually a modification of it) is highly customisable through extensions and themes. I personally recommend the Adapta, Pop, United and Arc themes and the Papirus (and derivatives), Numix Square/Circle and the La Capitaine icon packs.
Third advice: whatever you do and whatever you're told to do, do not execute "sudo rm -rf /" in a terminal. Linux is quite closed to anyone not in possession of the root (or admin) password. But when you have it, you are literally omnipotent. "sudo" is used to execute a command with root privileges. It is for example necessary to install programs, update your OS and installed apps and modify system files. It is extremely dangerous since it gives you root access. It is an abbreviation for Super User Do. "rm" is used to remove a file. Parts of a command given with one or two dashes are options. Here, "-f" tells rm to remove a folder and its content. "-r" is only used when paired with "-f" since it deletes folders recursively. When using -f, rm will stop each time it encounters a folder within a folder and ask you if you still want to remove it. "-r" will bypass that and just delete everything. Since these two are nearly never used separated, we use "-rf". Finally, "/" is the argument (here the folder to remove). On Linux, the "/" folder is the base one. The folder containing all other folders (equivalent to C: on Windows even if C is a drive and / a folder). This means the instruction "sudo rm -rf /" will delete everything on your Linux partition with no exception.
The Linux community is generally extremely helpful but, like every community, we have a few trolls and, even if I never encountered one, I've heard of a few case where people asked for help and some guy just told them to sudo rm -rf /. Needless to say, they were banished from the forums... Reportedly, some distro have implemented safeties to prevent people from deleting their partition but I've never tested it...
In any case, don't hesitate to ask questions if you have some or to read or watch tutos (even if you don't fully understand them) and, if you decide to install a Linux distro, welcome in the community!
It's not too difficult. If you want one that's easy to use, I'd recommend Mint. It has all the easy to use features of Windows, while offering more freedom, better customization, and better orginization. Best part is that it does not spy on you.
UDEMY offers good course in LINUX
It's easy to learn though I have a course before that talks about more on Linux.
I got a question I was just on my email on my iPad and it said that "Linux has your password I changed my password of course but should I be more cautious
1. It's GNU/Linux.
2. Pronounced Ubuntu with a hard U.
3. You can download software from the web, and if you're developing anything new, you will. In most cases these will be pre-compiled binaries with install scripts. Worst case, you'll have to type the type the three-command combo configure, make, and make install. (Appimage has recently been gaining popularity, which provides portable linux binaries).
Good day.

Ah, welcome to the learning curve! Someday you'll be able to do that in 20 minutes, tops.
It's astonishing to see how many games are compatible with Linux on Steam nowadays compared to three or four years ago. As of the beginning of 2019 there are over 9500 games compatible with Linux, either natively or through Proton.
I don't mind a steep learning curve. I just want to know If I will be able to game. If I new game comes out will I be able to play it? Or will I have to sit around waiting for fixes to play new titles.

CAN YOU MAKE A VIDEO ON LINUX VS UNIX
It actually isn't but it's based on the Unix model that there should be loads of different small packages that have one function, everything in Linux was written from scratch. Mac OS X is BSD/Unix though.
Unix is owned by Bell Labs, and you need a pretty expensive licence to officially run Unix on your machine, Linux and BSD are Unix-like systems which are free to use, and contain none of the original Unux code.
As for the difference between Unix/BSD and Linux, that's pretty simple. Unix is an operating system, Linux is a kernel.
No-name not-a-person nope, they don't. That's the whole reason bsd is open source, because they managed to get the rest of the Unix code out. With it still in they couldn't make it free

The Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) started out as just that; a collection of useful software (such as grep and awk) for Unix. It was bundled with Berkeley's version of Unix. The only way you could legally obtain BSD was by buying a Unix licence from AT&T, and then using that proof of purchase to get the Berkeley Unix distribution. This licence was (and still is) ludicrously expensive.
So as time went on, and BSD got more and more popular, the BSD team wanted to make BSD available for everyone, so they started building their own OS by gradually replacing bits and pieces in Unix with their own code, until they finally in 1994 got the last bits out and won a lawsuit against AT&T who claimed ownership of Unix. This victory legally made the whole system free/libre and open source.

you guys need to do more videos on alternative OS, like Mint, CentOS, Debian... and MacOSX
you can still play (some) AAA Games.
MacOS? Ew
I use Linux and I can play all my games for it and I even have a few that are designed for it
I have 1 netbock for windows
And and I want to add linux wat linux have descktop is good for low pc ?
Ths netbock is for my mather the other options i need is the is the doual screen because the screen is broken
Wait package managers only. Not even MS and Apple do this. There has to be a way to download Linux sw from elsewhere right?
When Windows XP support ended, I didn't want to buy new windows copy, so I started use Linux (and non-licenced Windows 7 copy for games).

You can disable that

Define "disable" on proprietary software
Julian H I misunderstood what the OP said. Yes you cannot disable it unless u edit the registry and probably break the OS.
So how exactly do I switch to Linux? I have a Windows 10 PC, but I would like to have an OS without the bloatware and restrictions.
My windows laptop is kind of dead and my husband's chromebook is saying arrived to the end of updates. I don't want to purchase a new windows pc. My daughter has one I hate all the restrictions. I like how fast is my husband's chromebook but I wouldn't be able to run CorelDraw on it. Since you seem to know a lot about Linux I was wondering if you know where I can go learn more about it or if you would recommend a device that is fast, can run Coreldraw and will not expired in 5 years? Thanks for sharing.
Linux is Linus but spelled differently.*
Linus Torvalds
it's linus and unix combined
+Hank Hill I bet you can run Linux on a trash can, and I know there's already microwaves running Linux, so yeah.
Bread is Apple but spelled differently.
Cake is an egg but spelled differently
I moved the Mint last week and I am glad I did. I'm not very tech savvy and I have had to learn a bunch but it's not impossible and Wine is the easiest thing to use
I don't mean to scare you away, but there's a problem with Mint's *graphical* package manager. If you use the graphical package manager you do not get Linux **kernel** updates. However, I think it works fine for all other updates.
This can be an issue of security -- I've heard of someone who was running a kernel version which had a root exploit, which meant you could exploit a bug to become root, the admin with all privileges.
As far as I know, the way to make sure you get kernel updates is to run "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade". So, try to remember to run this every 2-3 months.
If you have any questions or issues, you can feel free to message me. I've got a big interest in how Linux distros work under the hood, and would love to see more people start using Linux, so I'd be more than willing to help. :)
Dan Örjestad
Thanks man, I appreciate it. Thanks for the tip too :)
Not sure why people keep saying this. Kernel updates always show up in the update manager, but they're just un-checked by default
dist-upgrade can break things sometimes and kernel upgrade causes problems with nvidia drivers. Distributions use stable kernels, so you should not worry about updating unless someone says that your exact version is vulnerable. But mintupdate does not update some things that can be updated with apt-get upgrade, which is unlikely to break anything.
Hi Sir.
May I asked ,What is example of software that is deviated from Linux and what are their main differences.??? Thank you.😍
If you are new to try what ver would you start with?
I usually install Linux on old computers, it improves them massively as compared to winXP
i have never used linux. i want to use linux. my pc is slower. i do video editing, can i use sony vegas for Linux? anybody please help. will linux support on my windows pc? i never do gaming i just use internet and videos editing/ can dslr videos and pictures support
To do video editing on Linux you will probably be best off using Davinci Resolve. It's very capable for lower-end use (less than 4K).
Linux is supported on any PC that can run any other OS.
Of you've never used linux be prepared for a whole lot of work and a steep learning curve. Unless you can find someone to just set a system up for you and support you. There is a reason it's not popular with home users even though it's usually free. Yeah lots of dedicated linux users out there but they are dedicated to linux rather than just regular users. It's like becoming a mechanic if you want to drive a car.
@@cgaccount3669 Hmm... I don't quite agree with that. I think if you start off with something like Mint then it would be doable. I started off messing about with Debian Jessie on a Raspberry Pi with little computer knowledge. From there Mint isn't a very steep learning curve. Linux is perfectly usable for home users, just - like everything else - you need to learn something. It's like saying Windows isn't usable coming from a mac. IT is, you just need to put a little effort in.
Sorry if that was a bit of a rant..
Hi guys, I am wondering if running linux via Flashdrive with preinstalled OS a good idea? Whenever I start my laptop, I will plug in my flashdrive and rearrange boot sequence.
you only run the live environment for installing the OS or fixing something
@@AoTheMighty ohhh ok. So I'm going to go with virtual box then. Thank you very much
Awesome video, great information.
This was so funny, at 2:26 that was exactly me learning the commands in Linux for the first time.
If I can figure out how to use Kerbal Space Program and RPGMMO I should be good on gaming.
Yep I play KSP on Linux, but sometimes the graphics drivers get out of whack.
Honestly, after using it for so long, I can't even begin to imagine going back to Windows as a daily driver OS. There are some eccentricities to any Linux distro, sure, but there are also many eccentricities to Windows as well. Considering that I can choose exactly when I want to update my software, updates don't force me to reboot, and updates also apply to things like Firefox and Gimp (among other niceties), well, I can't help but think that maybe the average Linux distro is a bit more _sane_ on a day to day basis than Windows.
hahahahaha the ad transition in the end was funny :)

Using the package manager? Nah, using the terminal is better
+Damon Gant I meant, most people don't like the graphical package manager and prefer the terminal
You know, you still using a package manager, it's just a commandline one XD
Gonna correct top commenter's with "Using the GUI package manager? Nah, using the command line package manager is better."
Yep mendyc158 meant GUI package manage. AptGet & RPM are still package managed that just are addressed by command line. Personally i'm still a noob who still like GDebi.
And there is this guy who believes apt-get is the only package manager that can be run under a terminal *facepalm*

could u help me with this please
I hope to see full Direct X emulation on Linux in the future, bypassing the whole porting issue. Lack of gaming support being the one legitimate drawback to the platform for a home-PC user, but there have been leaps and bounds on that front, with the, "over 1000 games" now exceeding 5000 fully supported games.
DVXK Dream come true.
I used almost all major distributions but I faced issues while copying data from pc to usb and it really sucks sometimes we need to copy data 5 to 6 times just for a single file of less then a MB
Can someone tell me how someone new to Linux could go about learning it? Can any machine run it? Would installing it be irreversible or dangerous? etc. etc.
Within the last 6 months I have made the complete switch to linux, I only use the Windows partition as a bootloader for Steam. I do not regret it one bit. I encourage anyone who is interested into trying Linux Mint or Manjaro, you will not regret it, especially if you have an older PC. I have an old laptop that has less than a gig of RAM, and I was able to find a Linux distro that runs fast on it, idling at around 150 MB of RAM. Linux is truly powerful, and I enjoy the peace of mind that I am not using a spyware OS. It's not that hard to use either. I switched my mother and friend over to Linux Mint XFCE because their computers were getting old for Windows 10. Runs flawlessly, and the only issue that I had to fix was interfacing with an HP printer. I have had more issues myself, but that is because I like to poke around and get myself in trouble. For the average user that just uses the internet, I think Linux is a very good choice, it is lighter-weight and faster than Windows, and is more secure and relatively virus free. You don't even need to use an antivirus in Linux.

@@Phoenix-nh9kt TL:DR: Linux is great and easy to use for most people, give it a try if yolu haven't already.
