Time to choose the perfect!


Hello to everyone first, my name is Amit Negi and this is my first blog.

As for my first blog the topic I'm gonna talk about is a little serious, my topic is after Windows 7 what's next? What's better for users? For you and for me. After retirement of Windows 7 my journey with Windows actually came to an end and I had two options either to upgrade to Windows 8 or 10 or either look for another alternative. For me an upgrade was easy and so was to choose an alternative, I also used the Windows 10 OS for three weeks but I was fed up by the update issues. Also the slow boot time, unnecessary notifications, some viruses and the crashing Windows update application forced me to look for an alternative.

Now let me make it clear, I have an i3 7th gen Acer Aspire Laptop and for me a Macbook is both out of question and budget. But shockingly the alternatives were interesting. If you are fed up of Windows, want to try something new and a macbook is out of your reach then I have one word for you and that's LINUX!

Now before we can start let me make it clear I don't hate WINDOWS, I'm just fed of it. Above I shared all the limitations and problems I faced when I was using WINDOWS and also of Macbook (The only limitation of Macbook is that not everyone can afford it!)

Now, what is Linux?

Just like Windows, iOS, and Mac OS, Linux is an operating system. In fact, one of the most popular platforms on the planet, Android, is powered by the Linux operating system.

From smartphones to cars, supercomputers and home appliances, home desktops to enterprise servers, the Linux operating system is everywhere.

Linux has been around since the mid-1990s and has since reached a user-base that spans the globe. Linux is actually everywhere: It?s in your phones, your thermostats, in your cars, refrigerators, Roku devices, and televisions. It also runs most of the Internet, all of the world’s top 500 supercomputers, and the world’s stock exchanges.

But besides being the platform of choice to run desktops, servers, and embedded systems across the globe, Linux is one of the most reliable, secure and worry-free operating systems available.

The thing is Linux is fast, safe, secure and free of cost but if you want rain then you also have to deal with some mud. Although it's fast, safe, secure and free of cost Linux also is not completely perfect. The problem is many Linux distributions are user-friendly and many are not, many are fast, light and need low hardware specifications and many need a high-end hardware. Not only that the thing is there are almost six hundred Linux distributions available, with close to five hundred out of those in active development, that's a very big number and the difficult task for the user is to pick up the best and perfect Linux distribution for himself and believe me,
IT'S NOT AN EASY TASK AT ALL!

Talking about me, I've used for about thirty-three distributions and believe me all of them were good in some aspects and bad in some but for me it was a different experience. From Puppy Linux to Pop OS, from Kali Linux to Backbox OS and from Linux Mint to Peppermint OS I've used everything and I'm going to help you with my Linux experience which will help you to choose the perfect one for yourself.

So stay tuned for more information on Linux distributions and other stuff, I'll share everything I know and will try to help you.

Comment, if you are confused.

Share, if you found this thing useful.

Like, if there's any option like this exists here. (This is my first blog friends, give me some time to adapt and learn.)

Also stay tuned for more and to know which Linux Distribution I use (Yes I am a Linux user and I also use Windows. DUAL BOOT BABY!)

Thanks for reading.
