Conversation: Can we stop using the term "Beginner Distro"?
by jayeshshetty from LinuxQuestions.org on (#55MJD)
Before I would like to express my opinion in detail, I would like to give out the following information about what kind of Computer user I am, and how I operate my computer.
Long story short, I began with Windows XP in the early 2000's back when I was teenager, I used it mostly as a part gaming platform with inferior hardware back in the day standards, and a platform hosting education software.
Today, I use Windows 10, most of the time experimenting with Digital Audio Workstations, browsing the web and occasionally multimedia and videogames. I'm not really happy or comfortable with modern Windows, as it took a drastic change for the worse not in the thought that I'm being spied by big a big corporation, but how the user interface and overall feel of the desktop is obnoxious.
Knowing Windows 7, one of my most favorite releases of Widnows ended life support in the beginning of 2020, I can safely say that I am on the look for a solid "Windows alternative", but not in the way Linux people imagine of one (ZorinOS Won't do the trick). For me it's easy to define it by mentioning the phrase traditional desktop experience.
