Linux makes a fantastic writing / research machine but helping folks make the transition to Linux can be difficult.

Everyone comes at it from a different angle and with a different intensity. Sometimes just letting them explore available options can be what they need. I’ve found that allowing the transition to be an open, running conversation, can be really helpful and much less stressful. There’s a lot to learn, even with Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, etc…

If you haven’t found them already, here’s a few personal favorite writing apps/systems (in no particular order) I’ve enjoyed using over the years.

Cool tool! Please consider leaving GitHub for any of the numerous FOSS options.

That’s awesome! Really encouraging seeing projects and devs migrate away from closed-source and proprietary systems and features. 💪
