I was being encouraged to learn programming by my brother-in-law, so when I was going through the lessons in the course he bought there was a section on Linux. At first I was thinking on how would I be able to install in a virtual machine but my brother-in-law in all his wisdom said “why don’t you dual-boot”. After some planning so I don’t nuke my hard drive and flashing LMDE as my first distro I installed Linux and did the rest of the course there.

I’ve distro hopped 3 times since then:
LMDE (3 months) -> Ubuntu LTS (4 months) -> Arch (2 years) -> NixOS (2 weeks)
