Windows 11 requires TPM 2.0, meaning that most computers that are not within 5 years old will not be able to run it. But TPM 2.0 carries with it some privacy challenges that take away more control over your computer to hand it to the tech companies who seek to control us. So when Windows 11 comes, will you be buying new hardware to replace a computer that works just fine, or will you just switch to Linux?

Linux. I'm learning with Ubuntu for a bit and will eventually migrate to Arch once I have a great foundation. It's a relief that computers do what you tell them to under Linux instead of Windows where you tell them fifty times that you don't want to perform updates, but they throw it on their anyway. Plus, I fucking hate Microsoft accounts. Fuck that.

Manjaro is to Arch what Ubuntu is to Debian.

I'd just start off with Manjaro if your goal is to eventually use Arch. I've been using Manjaro for 6 years. It's great and not difficult.

Okay. I'll give Manjaro another shot. The packages kind of confused me, but I have plenty of other machines to test this stuff out on. Ubuntu and CentOS seemed like good directions considering how enterprise systems tend to utilize them. Career path was another thought when choosing. What do Ubuntu users end up gravitating toward?
