My Linux Migration Considerations: Privacy, Security, and Convenience for a Beginner

Some final thoughts

My plan with “distro-hopping” is this:

Windows 11 (Current) → Fedora Workstation (To get familiarized with Linux) → Fedora Silverblue (For some exposure to an immutable distribution) → Fedora Kinoite (To see how the KDE Plasma DE fits into my workflow) → openSUSE Aeon (I strongly agree with this viewpoint on it) → Ubuntu (Out of curiousity) → openSUSE Tumbleweed (Something I’ve been interested in trying.

I’ve now solved issues such as not being able to use Element and Signal on non-Debian-based distributions: I can just use SimpleX on Linux, and keep Element and Signal on Android. I think all my issues have been solved, and I can research, verify, and troubleshoot any issues I have on the distribution’s respective forum.

I’ll probably do some research for suggestions like this, and others as well. I’m happy to hear any more suggestions or comments, which I’ll try to respond to when I can.
