I hear HP and Dell are good with Linux. I had Ubuntu installed on my HP laptop. Everything worked including my Logitech wireless mouse and Corsair wireless Headset. I now also have Ubuntu Budgie on a 2017 Lenovo laptop that was impossible to use because it was so slow. Windows had it so bogged down. It took forever for it to respond to even opening folder to view what was in it when trying to get data off it. It even blue screened on me once while I was get documents off of it. I thought for a bit I would not get the stuff off because it was running so badly. Now it is fast and smooth and does not crash. Everything works on it too.

I don't know where to ask this, but can I use any newer laptop, or it has to be an older one? For instance, I would like to use my pretty new HP Envy x360, which is probably 2 years old. It runs on Windows 10 with Intel Core i7-8565U CPU @ 1.80 GHz 1.99GHz. Thanks to your feedback! 😊

The entire Linux community is up to date on current technology, so yes. You can use a newer laptop. Linux also has what we call "generic" drivers to push most hardware. There are drivers centered around specific hardwares, and there are also proprietary drivers for things like Nvidia. Linux is usually out in front of technology. You would be amazed at how much current tech revolves around the Linux OS.

Brax.me has hit on a business perhaps...out of stock and high volume traffic!

Just gave my 11 year old a used HP laptop I loaded linux lite on. Any recommendations for a net nanny or content filtering type free linux app ?

I just received my pixel 3a - degoogled, calyxOS - and it accepted the verizon sim card no problem. I am getting rid of my direct account with verizon though - just saying...MVNO maybe...

Also to note, if you are visually impaired like myself, there are applications out there such as Viacam that makes maneuvering in Linux easier. There are other applications and distros that also help folks with disabilities.

DaVinci Resolve may not be open source, but looks like a good professional Premier alternative, especially if you get one of their expensive keyboard/panels.

Another great Illustrator/ Animate open-source alternative that this website doesn't mention is the Krita paint program.

Either I'm getting old, or I'm spoiled by plug n play, but I can't help wishing for a phone and a computer that are already de-googled and de-appled. I see T-mobile mentioned a lot here, are they less "liberal-left" than AT&T? Where did you receive your phone from, ebay?

I am trying Patriot Mobile to ditch putting my money directly into AT&T's pocket.

I used my Raspberry Pi to be a Network Attached Storage (NAS) that I have Linux, Windows, and Android devices attached. Wife hasn't let me do her Mac yet.

I am finally able to listen to this voice chat and can’t tell you how excited I am about this. The part where you say even someone not technical can help makes me so happy. I have always been curious but time has prevented me from exploring.. Hoping that I can help with this project in some way.
