What has your experience with Linux been like so far? How long has been your Linux journey? Mine began while I was studying computer science, and I've been in love with Linux since.

Oh yeah. Ubuntu really simplified everything.

My first distro on my own PC was Mandrake. I don't know how many times I had to reinstall it because of my fuckups.

Two years later I was compiling my own kernel with the source code of special modules that I had downloaded for my NVidia card that had composite video input.

I've never had to compile a kernel since Ubuntu. I completely forgot to be honest.
