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.
If you’ve only ever used Windows, Linux is like using a computer for the first time.
I’ll never forget leaving my first college football game at the half cause my Dad and me were both bored and going to a Compaq store and buying our families first home computer.
