Turns out the reply in my thread telling me the best way to combat not caring about Linux is to care about Linux was absolutely correct.

I picked up a laptop, installed Linux Mint Cinnamon, and I’m already obsessed. I haven’t had this much fun with a PC in a long time and it’s just a cheapo Dell Inspiron 3520.

    I hopped between distros every couple months, then discovered Ubuntu, which I used for years. Then Unity happened. Mint for years after that. Budgie for a little while, but hated the UX similarities to Mac. Then back to Mint. Tried Ubuntu again, but still can’t do Unity. Now I’m Fedora Silverblue on one laptop and OpenSuse on the other. I’m loving both, but I’ll probably go back to Mint soon enough. Mint now comes with GNOME as an option, right? Meh. Even if it doesn’t, I can install the DE after the fact. I’m having a hard time deciding between KDE and GNOME, honestly.
