Just a hobbyist programmer.
Probably a combination of free/libre and gratis. Thing is,I was amazed at the speed of it compared to Windows (at the time I had XP).
My first incursion was with Puppy Linux circa 2010, then Ubuntu circa 2012, and now I want to hop to another distro but don’t know which.
10000 something right now.
It’s 800+ :D
Ha, I went thru that too a while ago.
Finished playing Summon Night Swordcraft Story GBA, playing Ghost Trick Phantom Detective NDS, and started yet again Final Fantasy IV this time on the GBA, all emulated in my Android phone thanks to Lemuroid.
Also started playing Resident Evil 3 PSX on my Android tablet (also Lemuroid).
Good to know, thanks.
Still, I won’t touch Windows if I can help it.
Oh, it isn’t encrypted. I’ve mounted the partition before. I just didn’t find the time (read: I was lazy :P).
I have a laptop still with Windows 10. I got it from my late sister about 4 years ago, booted it up, went and installed Ubuntu (18.04 at the time), and never touched Windows again.
I later read somewhere that W10 was forcibly upgrading itself to W11, so I’m afraid to even boot into it. Should probably take some time to copy everything important over and finally nuke it.
For reference, I’ve been using Linux since around 2012.
Basically Loopy in Simon Tatham’s Puzzles, available on Linux, Windows, and Android (F-Droid), when I don’t want to be stressed.
Otherwise I just play some retro/old school games like Final Fantasy (started IV a few days ago), (Free)Doom, AssaultCube or Cave Story when on my laptop.
Terraria saw the opportunity and took it.
