      Well I’m neither of those. I’m not a tech bro and I don’t really understand computers well or what a tick tock does. I’m just an old dude who’s been using standard desktop stuff since windows 3.1 and DOS before that.

      You should install Linux unless you absolutely need either commercial architecture software or Excel for specific things.

      Start on Mint or KDE Neon if you’re coming from windows.
