First Things first....my english ist very poor. Sorry for that. I'm bloody inexperienced by using Linux at all, but i've already ordered my pi5 8gb and gave myself a good overview about what os to use then. It will be Ubuntu Mate. I' ve seen a lot in YouTube about ISO and first boot and so on. Also this community ist very top ratet by searching via Google.
So, i will give it a first try, as soon as my hardware has arrived. But i'm sure, that i'll need your friendly support for the one or the other topic.
Welcome! I experimented with Ubuntu MATE on my Pi 4 and it was a mix of good and bad - I reckon the Pi 5 will fare a lot better as it has much more grunt than the 4.
Good luck and I hope you find all the support you need
Welcome @MateOlaf! Everyone was where you are now. So, you now have an entire community at your back. We are here to answer questions. Sometimes we even get it right!
Pretty much. I go there fishing every year with no problems. There are a few minor differences but not many, unlike British English and Australian English. Of course Quebec is a different story as they prefer you speak French.
I'm bio german. But plus the new learning by working on Linux it is also a very good opportunity to improve my english.
Today, the first parts have arrived. The Raspberry Keyboard and the micro SD card. I've downloaded the ISO and the original imager and made the bootstick.
At the first week of feb. the rest will arrive,
which ist the display, the housing, the "Special" HDMI cable and finally the rpi5.
I'm curious and excited. I will let you know about the progress.
What made you decide on Raspberry Pi? I confess I've been tempted, but complete systems (benutzt) are available that don't require plugging in pieces. Did you find the cost of a new RP system cheaper than a laptop you could buy used?
