I have been learning about tech privacy for a couple years now. Following popular linux and FOSS outlets, picking a popular "just works" distro as a daily driver to learn and acclimate. Now, its time again for me to re-evaluate what I want out of an operating system and what better opertunities I might like to try.

Still using cinnamon as my main desktop enviroment. I watched Distrotubes Linux mint power user guide which helped a ton.
