With the new computer and the newer Microsoft Windows updates they have really jam packed their OS with bloat and spyware. That being said I have no idea what I’m doing with Linux, need help with where to start.? What are some general tips? I understand there’s a lot of prebuilt Linux distributions or something what are some first timer friendly ones? Really any help is appreciated because the biggest barrier to entry is the perceived difficulty of actually doing it.

      Having never heard of TROMjaro, I looked it up, read that it’s designed “for my brain”, whatever that means, and when I looked at the About page for elucidation I quickly ended up on a site with a library of cult-flavored booklets about “trade” being evil. I gather that the actual point of the distro is to make Manjaro more fully free by removing packages that collect data, but Parabola already does this and is certified by the FSF fully free.

      Ideology aside, is there something about TROMjaro that makes it a better user experience than other distros?
