To add to this:

Michael Horn Does a good amount of explaining different Linux software out there. Similar to Linux Experiment without the weekly news.

TechHut Also has some good videos but you have to look through his library.

Heard that galaxy buds are pretty balance when it comes to sound. They also have a pink color…I think.

On Neo store, f-droid front end, in the settings there is an option to auto update all apps. Also has a one click button to update all apps if you don’t want to auto update.

Updated version of OpenBoard, a FOSS private Keyboard for Android. Allows the enablement of swipe typing, has an updated dictionary, and has built in auto fill.

They will add it to f-droid once they get all of their 1.0 tasks done.

Try hitting share on the browser and then choose Aurora store under action. Pops up for me.

Noted, I’m on android 14.

Not a game developer but I have a hunch that its for displaying videos within the game. Like a cut scene.

I don’t windows as much anymore, but I think if you right click the file and hit ‘Open with’, you can set a different program as default.

In a high level, you are correct that Ubuntu is a standalone OS like Fedora. Other distributions have used the background packages that make up Ubuntu to form their own OS with changes here and there. It is similar to how Ubuntu is built on top of Debian.

Sure others can explain this better.

Since you are more familiar with Windows, Linux Mint may be a good start. Can also try PopOS for a different desktop layout, more similar to Mac. These are Ubuntu based systems. Can also give Fedora a try, but may require a bit more of a learning curve. There is also Nobora for a more gaming oriented version of fedora. Try out the live previews before installing to make sure your system works properly.

Not sure if this is something that will help but the site Linux Journey might help you learn how to use and understand Linux more. This is more the core stuff and command line oriented.

For easier transition, start using programs that are available on both systems so you don’t have to jump in cold turkey, if that may be too much. When looking for programs on Linux, always use the provided store first to search. Since you are a programmer, you are aware that there will always be multiple ways to do the same thing, web searching is your friend, just make sure you are searching for the right based system, in the examples above, Fedora or Ubuntu. For programming you are going to enjoy Linux more than windows :).

Remember this is a journey and will take time. Have fun!

You either connect a mic via Bluetooth or wired headset.

From my experience, its overall good. Its basically stock android, meaning no google smart features and apps by default, with more control over apps and google services. But for caution, some apps may break. You will have to mess around with the app settings to fix them. Also some apps will not work such as the google wallet app due to the OS not being acknowledged as official by google.

In short, its a more security focused OS that may require more involvement in configuration.

Pretty much just been playing Risk of Rain Returns. Fun game but gets pretty hard.

Dead space. The remake was just as good as the original but with updated graphics and mechanics.

No it’s a local application like Libre. Can also be ran in the cloud.
