I Used Linux for 8 Years: Here's What They Don't Tell You

And what ended up happening was when I was looking at distributions...

Many of those distributions like GNOME, KDE, XFCE, these were not distributions but desktop environments.

And many people, especially when you're new to Linux, choose your Linux distribution based on the look.

And this is normal.

They were like, oh, this is just new functionality.

Well, it really doesn't matter.

You can really switch out these on the fly without having to reinstall everything.

and that's kind of a big deal so that's that's one of the big things with it in like picking just a file manager like when i'm here and i launch my file manager this right here is thunar and i really like thunar i figured out that's that's my file manager this is actually from xfce but i don't really use xfce I just liked their file manager.

So you can actually mix and match different sections of these utilities based on your preference.

And I think that's really cool.

So that's the other thing.

Pick out what you like about it.
