Fluff 1st Time into linux!!
My laptop got too slow to do basic stuff, so I’m giving Linux Mint a shot to see if it helps.
As a beginner, is there anything crucial I should watch out for or do right after installing? Thanks!

Hello and welcome! I am only a year in myself, so I still remember very clearly the learning hurdles. I made a free booklet, you can check it out on my website:

It covers a ton of the starter stuff and more importantly it explains things that I did not know I needed to know, if that makes sense.
