New Linux user in Newfoundland, Canada. Hi!

[Kojack]

I have been a life long Microsoft user. I have exclusively used everything MS for years including all their various mobile systems, RT, and every thing from MS-DOS to windows 11.

I came to linux after microsoft decided to invade my privacy with Ai everything. Their decisions are making people angry and I am one of them. Therefore, I am now on Zorin OS for our OS. I need to figure out how to get everything off OneDrive onto Local storage and then I will completely remove it from our PC's. I already have the wife's pc and my sofa system on Zorin.

Gonna be fun learning stuff and just having a lightweight OS that gets out of the way instead of forcing itself on you.

Which distro will you be starting with?
Cheers!

We will be exclusively using Zorin 18 pro. It's easy to use and has everything we want.

Welcome. I think you might be the first Newfie we've seen here (that we know of) in a while.

Welcome aboard the forum and welcome to Linux!.

It's refreshing to see someone who has just decided to draw the line and isn't terrified about making it stick.

G'day from your Commonwealth Allies Downunder, Kojack.
