22 Things You MUST Do After Installing Linux Mint 22 (WILMA)

[@vlad_8011]

Jeez, recommending fractional scaling? Really? I tested 7 linux distros, as newbie with 1440p screen, NOONE told me to use fractional scaling, EVERYONE advised to keep away from it, as wayland features are alpha/beta/experimental. It messes up mouse scroling, game capture, overlays, scaling in games and screen borders in RTS games. Wayland is something that gamers (you are recommending installing steam to play....) should avoid at all costs right now.

[@Robert-yp9zs]

Probably just me, as one considering moving to Mint from Windows-10. With Mint in a virtual environment inside Windows-10; not sure I want to start dealing with command lines. This feeds the prevalent "fear" that Windows users have in thinking about getting rid of Windows.

[@Pirate85getready]

Well, if u don't wanna do anything too fency - you don't need a Terminal at all. That's the cool thing about Linux Mint. Tested Mint 22 and Kubuntu in the last Days and will install Mint again today to stay there... Bye Win 11. For office there is libre office and for games Lutris & Steam. Works perfectly with Wine/Proton (tested with RX 6800 as well as with RTX 4070 Ti Super). ❤

Windows Stockholm syndrome

[@johnrockley9472]

Wow! I kinda thought Linux Mint might just replace Windows 10 when the end comes. I can see that won't happen for me, way too complicated, I'm sure I'd never get it to work! Thanks for the content it really illustrated what a complex system it is. Maybe some clever folk out there could invent a simple 'distro' (I think I got that right!) for the layperson home user who just uses a browser, e-mails, takes a few photos and writes the odd letter, kinda like I remember Windows 95 and before!

[@dragosvatamanu2294]

For that kind of usage it is more than enough sticking to Windows, there is no need to use Linux, especially if you are not a developer. And even if you are, Windows would still be able to do most of what you need, in my opinion.

[@johnrockley9472]

@@dragosvatamanu2294 The problem many ordinary users face is Windows 10 support ends in a year and upgrade to 11 not possible so pc won't be safe to use. Same as when support for Vista ended, it was chaos! The new Windows 10 PC was so awful I and others had to run our old PC alongside the for everyday tasks. We all got there in the end of course, but it is a fact they don't work 'out of the box', the same as a new Tablet, getting the e-mail to work is often a nightmare, and because we all rely on it it's a big problem. I was hoping all the things I've been reading about Linux Mint it might be an easy alternative, but it appears it won't be. Many of us just want our kit to work and not have to tinker with them. The memory of building PC's and bragging about our new 33MHZ processor etc are long gone, but fondly remembered, we're too old to bother now. I always say when VCR's were in vouge the average punter couldn't set the clock, let alone do a timer recording, have folk suddenly got clever? Just saying! All the best.

@@dragosvatamanu2294 It's not what you are using windows for that's the issue; the issue is what windows is doing to you.

[@crinolynneendymion8755]

Wow! Don't go outside when the sun's shining then, your shadow will scare the bejeezus out of you. As a benchmark, installing and getting Linux Mint up and running is several times easier than the same Windows process, many times more robust and takes about 1% of time. And it costs you nothing. So I don't believe your story.

[@2Deri]

You can! Im new to linux aswell, and a lot of stuff hes doing in the terminal you can do through mint GUI aswell. They have an update manager and software manager(kinda like app store).

Linux Revived my pc . Good for pc with low end non-upgradable specs . Runs smooth like butter and unimaginably fast . Windows 11 gave me nightmare just trying to open 4 tab in chrome and all those bloatware shit eating up my pc . I was about to buy new laptop just for web surfing and casual work . Now with this Linux I need not to buy laptop for another 2 years ,

The video of the 22 things you need to know and understand for Linux Mint 22 was well done. The highlight for me was the: Workspaces, Timeshift, Swappiness, Virtual Machine. It did take four hours to complete the tasks but without the video I would have had to research and would have taken two days to gather all the information. Thankyou

I have one request: could you please pin a comment with the "...command to install Linux headers and other useful packages" text shown at timestamp 14:59? It is long and I don't want to mess up when entering it. Copying/pasting would be SO much easier. Thanks again!

[@finhas8865]

First things to do if you just migrate from windows: Install VirtualBox, and install windows within it. Yeah, there are better Virtual Machines, but VitrtualBox install much like windows apps, only one terminal line to add usb functionality.

Yup. That is what I installed...it works a lot like what I used in Windows.

@@michaeleber4752 Yes, and the most direct, easy to follow and functional, install and setup guide video are ine from ExplainingComputers some 4 years ago.

[@kskroyaltech]

You can use KVM or QEMU to instal Windows 10 instead of virtual box.

[@finhas8865]

See this is what I hate about Linux: The sheer list of things you need to do AFTER install, You know how windows would solve this? There would be an executable just doing all the 22 things in one go, probably veven able to run with the installer. You want people to leave Microsoft and Apple OS and go Linux? Fine, I have 3 words for you: - User friendlyness - User friendlyness - User friendlyness People do not change to Linux because it is NOT USER FRIENDLY, you just don't tell Joe I do not know my computer from a toaster Shmoe to install Linux and then do an infinite list of sh*t he does not want to do, he just wants to put in the bread, press the buttin and out comes the toast, kind of experience. Not the "Hey look at me we are 7 weeks in now and I finally dit item 11 on the list, 7 more weeks and I can print my first document"
