Windows 95 got a click of death virus and fucked up my drive from freshmen college years. All my photos on my first digital camera too. That day I decided to try Linux.

I installed Gentoo first. Mostly because I'm and idiot.

Soon after I tried red hat but it was uptight. Then I jumped to Mandrake and I kept using mandrake for many years until it died. I tried a bunch of others until I tried Ubuntu. I'm going to stay on Ubuntu until enshitification dictates that I need to change. Moving to Mint soon probably. Ubuntu still feels okay enough to stay but it's showing signs of enshitification.
