Linux@lemmy.ml•Solved: Switching from Windows, but slightly convolutedEnglish
6·5 days agoAs others have suggested it is probably smarter to just backup windows onto a portable hard drive, or you could do Windows2Go which is finicky but do-able.
Also you didn’t ask what distro, but I have been enjoying Fedora Kinoite it’s a very smooth transition (and improvement) from Windows.

Technology@lemmy.world•Screw it, I’m installing LinuxEnglish
1·8 days agoBazzite is good for noobs looking for a gaming option because it’s “immutable” which means the OS filesystem can’t be edited, which makes it nearly impossible to break.
Mint is still very noob friendly, just not immutable. Both are solid options because neither one requires any command line to get it on-par with Windows.

2·8 days agoI am trying out Kinoite now but it’s very similar. I think the immutable distros are best for people who want a “Just works” experience to start with.

This is a good point, I actually made that mistake once! It required their app to setup.
Amcrest seems to be the cheapest and I have good experience with them and Frigate

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Is there a selfhosted option for webcomics?English
3·23 days agoKapowarr is for comic books, OP is looking for comic strips.
That said it should be great for finding collected editions.
It’s for image recognition. Nothing sad about it. Great feature.
