I finally switched to Linux and I couldn't be happier. I can't believe I put up with microsofts garbage for so damn long.

I did as well for my daily driver school laptop and I've been loving it so much. I'm considering switching my desktop to Linux as well over the summer, or dual booting at the very least

Me too. Years ago I dabbled with Debian and Gentoo. Ubuntu was just up and coming then.

Now I went from Mint to Fedora KDE to Fedora Silverblue (nuked my disk and removed windows)

Gnome took a day to get used to but loving the workflow once I warmed up to it. Can’t believe how polished and rock solid the whole system is.

Gnome when you first use it feels like a stupid system, then once it "clicks", you feel like the devs were goddamn geniuses for creating a workflow like it.

And yeah, the polish is nuts considering for a long time and assumption about FOSS was that all the apps are ugly and unpolished.
