Back in the day I had started a software development major and was incentivised to learn about computers on a fundamental level. I learned that Linux was commonly used in the server space, so I decided to make a bootable USB to learn how to use the system (I tried Manjaro with the Deepin DE).

I soon realised I liked using it way more, mainly because I was bored of Windows's visuals and lack of options. I had tried rainmeter to add widgets and effects, but it was a bit of a hassle to configure and update.

After using a dual boot setup for half a year, I moved fully to Linux, since I no longer had classes requiring Windows-only software. Nowadays I'm using EndeavourOS with KDE, mostly for gaming, browsing and writing documents.
