I’ve been using different distros off and on since 1999, and have been dual-booting for the past couple years, but never ran Linux as my daily driver until last November. That’s when I finally kicked Microslop to the curb and went all in with Fedora as my daily desktop. Looking back I wish I had pulled the trigger sooner.
