  • Just in case you don’t know, you can use those Microsoft services no problem in Linux through a web browser. You can also “install” them since they’re PWAs and integrate them with your system notifications.

    There’s also Thunderbird from Mozilla, and the open source fork Betterbird that has a far more modern appearance and options. That will work easily with your existing Microsoft email.

    I’m by no means encouraging that you stay on Microsoft, but moving to Linux AND changing providers for important stuff like email and calendar might be a lot all at once.









  • I don’t really distro hop much (you need a rolling release distro and a stable distro, never needed more) but if you’re asking I’ll assume you’re a Linux newb so really I would recommend doing something less custom. If you want Fedora and KDE, install the Fedora ISO that comes with KDE and be done.

    I won’t say it’s incredibly complex to run multiple desktop environments, but it’s definitely more of a pain and can cause weird issues (fucking NetworkManager) Better to stick to the “happy path” and make your machine as standard as possible so it’s more compatible with everything, especially if you’re new to Linux
