I have been using a Windows laptop since March of 2019, since I had to move out of my parents’ house and into a dorm at the University of Minnesota. Later this year, I plan to buy another laptop and run a different Linux distribution. Ubuntu was easy to install and use, but I didn’t realize it was the Linux distribution often recommended to beginners. Therefore, I am going to try to find a different distribution that is more advanced. I have already researched how to install FreeBSD — another free and open-source Unix-like operating system — and I hope to use FreeBSD and other operating systems in the future.
