I’m glad to hear it. Linux in general has gotten way better in that regard. I haven’t had to fix any driver issues in years just install and it works.

PopOS is definitely a great first choice distribution. I would recommend Linux Mint over it for people coming from windows who wants something rock solid with a great community

netstat curl and git

Yep. I used a Chromebook pixel in college with Linux on it. Worked pretty well

Hahaha, I’m the opposite I’ve been so used to the thinkpad fn that I hate using other laptop keyboards.

Use Nix?

I mean if you want stability, Debian 12

Fedora, used Arch for many years but decided to try it out and have really enjoyed it. After Red Hats RHEL decisions I might swap to arch or nix os.
