Radgryd<p>I haven't run into issues while installing software I usually use at home every day. Discord, Telegram, Signal, Tuta, Firefox, VLC work without issue. I even installed Spotify because I was curious (I rarely use it on PC). </p><p>I need to remind myself to try out LibreWolf some more.</p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://floss.social/@Tuba" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>Tuba</span></a></span> is a Fedi client that I've always wanted to try out because I felt it looked the best, I just couldn't use it since I was on Windows. It really does feel good, I just haven't figured out how to change the language to English yet - it's currently in German and missing the option. I'm still using <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://m.webtoo.ls/@elk" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>elk</span></a></span> most of the time because I fell in love with it quite a while ago.</p><p>Steam works perfectly fine and the two games I've installed run really well and without lag. Die in the Dungeon and Tomb Raider Remastered I-III. That TR isn't laggy at all is very surprising to me.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/LinuxLog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxLog</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/Ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ubuntu</span></a></p>
Radgryd<p>Just over a week has passed since I've started messing about with Ubuntu. So far, I've felt very little restrictions. </p><p>I also learned a few things. At the start, I had issues installing Ubuntu: It kept closing the installation window. I thought it might be my unstable internet, but it wasn't. Ended up being a quick fix that my wife looked up online: Picking safe graphics mode.</p><p>Then I looked for a way to install <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@Tutanota" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>Tutanota</span></a></span> and learned what an 'AppImage' is, and how to install it. This is when I also realised there are several 'app stores' to choose from. I also found out that you have to set specific files to be 'executable' before you can use them.</p><p>The 'most complicated' situation I could solve with help of the internet was figuring out how to install the driver for my WiFi USB stick (because my built-in adapter is either broken or simply *sucks*). <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://floss.social/@ostechnix" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>ostechnix</span></a></span> led me through the lines of commands and checks to make sure it was properly installed. It felt really good when it all worked out.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/LinuxLog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxLog</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/Ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ubuntu</span></a></p>
