I had a dream about windows and have decided to setup Linux on my laptop. What distro should I use?

PRUSSIA_x86@lemmy.world to Linux@lemmy.ml – 100 points –

I used Ubuntu once a few years ago but had compatability issues so I went back to windows. Not a great programmer but I'd like to learn. I'm not looking to do much gaming beyond DOOM2 and factorio. Mostly looking for privacy and a way to get back into programming (I have this pipe dream of learning Assembly). I'm not to particular on UI, I can use whatever.

What was your dream about windows?

I was trying to run some weird nonsensical dream program for a work presentation and it kept opening M$Edge to show me ads. Every time I closed a window, two more would open. Eventually I was fired because "real dudes use arch". Then I woke up.

This is hilarious and awesome. Your dream is literally 90s malware and being fired for not being enough of a nerd.
