that,s what i did about a year ago, got sick of windows forcing updates that take forever, dealing with garbage being installed on my computer, advertising, spying etc. Now Linux UI/UX is way better then Windows depending on the desktop enviroment you choose, but it has other issues that i hope they will solve soon.

Installing a printer on Windows... you have to go through so much crap to get it running but on Linux you just connect your printer to WIFI or to your pc and its ready to print. No idea why Windows makes it so hard. I was also surprised when i seen my wacom tablet just works without doing anything and its settings or in the settings panel, but GIMP UI/UX is horrid that's what you get when programmers try to do UX/UI

To be fair that is exactly what happens with my printer with Windows.


If you have a wacom tablet I heartily recommend Krita.


yea i have it, but with how powerful Darktable is compared to Lightroom, i rarely need to use GIMP or anything else.


Ah yes for RAW work Darktable is my go-to software, it works great.
