For what I needed a PC to do, retro gaming, web browsing, light multimedia, it’s like this T480s was tailor made for me 😎 You’re going to hate me but so far Windows 11, I’ve had no problems with it, dirty of me to say when people are screaming at me to install Mint. But I’m a major dingdong and if it ain’t broke don’t fix it? Feels nice to have nice things sometimes.
Hell yeag! Glad your new laptop is going great, comrade! If win11 is working and you don’t mind their corporate bs so far, just keep using it, but if you ever feel the need or want to change it, we got you. If you ever want to just test it out just to see how it goes, you could always install it on an external drive too before committing to it.
Hell, even just boot into mint without installing it and just poke around and see if there’s anything you can’t do. If not, no reason not to install it. :)
