    I know lemmy is social media for people with a favorite Linux distro so I’m preaching to the choir here, but so much software is free as in speech it is truly wonderful. It’s like the only thing I love about being a millennial

      Gonna take this as a jumping off point to mention some software.

      Wanna get into video editing? Shotcut’s pretty solid in my experience.
      Into mind-mapping stuff? You might give Freeplane a look.
      Have a drawing tablet & want to use it to take handwritten digital notes? Check out Xournal++.
      Cross-platform Notepad++ alternative? Might give CudaText a try.

      Could list off more but will leave it at a few for now.

      I don’t have a fave distro because I must back up my PC’s stuff first. I plan to try Bazzite, due to issues I’ve heard that my laptop has with Mint…
