I’m always blown away by the number of issues people have. I mean, I get it’s Fedora, but, on my systems nowadays I really don’t have issues anymore. I’ve thought most of these issues have been eradicated. Maybe I’m just lucky, idk.
Where I live, a lot of smallish companies look for people with experience rather than certificates or degrees. I‘m a hobbyist turned professional and it shows. I cant talk any of the jargon but I handle servers well and I make short work of most small company IT problems. That and the ability to think in business processes works well.
I use guix because, while it has a small community, the packaging language is one of the easiest I’ve ever used.
Every distro I’ve tried I’ve always run into having to wait on packages or support from someone else. The package transformation scheme like what nixos has is great but Nixlang sucks ass. Being able to do all that in lisp is much preferred.
Plus I like shepherd much more than any of the other process 0’s
LibreOffice Draw can edit PDFs. For just a pdf reader, I use Zathura, though it may not be for you since it’s very keyboard-based so might be confusing to someone coming from Windows. I think Cinnamon must come with a default pdf reader right?
Yeah I can read them fine but for work I need to be able to mark them up and modify them. It has to be powerful with Mark up tools and most importantly I need to be able to dimension things to scale.
I jumped in with both feet this winter. I’d finally had enough of MS’s bullshit and couldn’t bear to use Win11. I built a new system and installed Mint and I’m loving it. I’ve only had very minor issues with the system itself or with gaming on Steam or Heroic.
