1 Month Challenge on Linux Mint - Worth it? Pros and Cons - Linux Switching series - Part 7
47In this series of videos, I will cover how to switch to Linux from the beginning to the end.
This video is the last part of the series. I express my experience with the distro and why I decided to move to another challenge.
I am planning to try most of the distribution and give my feedback, let me know if you like the content.
The channel of the buddies I challenge with:
Vinceff: https://www.youtube.com/@Vinceff

Take in consideration the date of recording and the version of the software used: all this tutorial might become unrelevant in the coming years (I will create a new one no worries).
Enjoy!
