I grew up a Windows geek, so I’m not an anti-Windows type. I generally believe people should use what they love.
And that is why I use Ubuntu MATE as my main daily driver. I love a lot of *nix philosophies and methods anyway, but today’s bit of happiness is this: Upgrading to a newer version of Windows involves running a setup that takes over. You’re a passenger on a ride, and you’re stuck until it’s done.
But here I am in Chrome, browsing and working and wasting your time by writing this bit of praise while the new release is isntalling.
I love that.
Sometimes there’s problems - and I really hope I get lucky with no problems; but there’s problems with every OS. That’s a fact of life.
But just the little breaths of fresh air are wonderful.
Thank you to everyone who makes *nix and specifically Ubuntu MATE what it is. <3
