great instructions for myself, a new Linux user. I had to pause the video many times and worked on my other mac while watching. Very straight forward with no "FLUFF". Thank you for giving me the tools to have my Linux mint working well right from the start.

Many people think about changing going to Linux and hunt videos on it. They see a lot of open the terminal and . . . . While I"m not a keyboard warrior by any means terminal doesn't scare or bother me. But it does many. I really like that you show what can be done without the terminal.
Most Windows people don't realize there is a lot of stuff you can do quicker and more efficiently with the command prompt than through the GUI but are happy with just the GUI. You are showing the for the majority of things, Linux is the same, just better.

I know you said it, and also seem to love Timeshift. But I just want to emphasize this. If you backup your latest working installation, with all the extra changes you made and extra apps installed, with Timeshift, you can do the following. If you install a new disk or perhaps damage your system, boot from the original out-of-the-box Linux Mint install medium (e.g. ISO on a stick), and run Timeshift. Show Timeshift where the backup is, and it will allow you to restore to a new blank partition. You don't have to backup to the same identical partition. The new partition must just be big enough. You will get your original system back. It will even modify your boot menu. You don't have to do a fresh install, and redo everything. So, whenever you have a great working system, with some new apps or system modifications, perhaps every week or so, back it up with Timeshift. This way you customize your own Linux Mint exactly like you want it, and you can do a fresh install from Timeshift whenever you want to.

Started messing around with Mint in VirtualBox to start practicing for when i finally switch over when Windows 10 dies next year. This video was AWESOME, thanks a lot for these tips

Linux Mint team does good work! This is the system I can install and setup on laptop of my parents, set auto start of Whatsupp and Netflix, make severat labels - on mail, google search and internet sites and forget about this for years. Even Windows with their updates bothered frequently - parents go to panic whet got message "laptop shuld be restarted" and do not know what to do and calling me )))

I installed Mint 22 yesterday and continuing today, fresh. I enjoy your vids and learn things. I knew most of your tips, but there were some new. I had trouble installing Redshift. It screwed up and I had to restart after deleting as best I could. Damn. I like Redshift. Mint 22 version seems great. I'd be careful with that clean up utility at the end of your video; unless someone knows what they are doing they can screw up the system badly. Always enjoy your videos and on Mint which I really only use

I've been looking at moving to Linux after I retire and this helps a lot. I understand the installation process, but wanted something that described what to do *_after_* you make the transition. This was perfect. Thanks!

[qazimtahir]

Linux mint is my love. I learned many new things from this video. Thanks dear.

[lawrencecavens]

I also want to thank this person for his ability to share - with one small request - Just slow down in your speech and procedures as you are showing whats going on, Other than that - Excellent video 👍👍👏

[inoutmodule]

Thank you, preload and tpl are the most needed.

This channel is actually a "flagship" of linux community. Deserves more!

[jasdeepsingh]

Great video buddy ❤️🔥. This is what I am looking for 💯. I ditched windows 7 and installed linux recently. My experience was really amazing as I like to explore things instead of sticking into something for a long time. As I am using linux mint mate DE on my old specs laptop (i5 2nd gen, 8gb ram, 1gb graphics card) I liked it alot but I not completely satisfied as there are lots of features and tweaks that are missing in mate version. What will you advice me - staying on current desktop environment or switching to cinnamon (more feature rich) or xfce?

[billsistrunk]

Outstanding! I am new to Linux and this information was much appreciated. Subscribed and looking forward to future videos.

[damolin]

Linux Mint is awesome Just like this video. I know Linux Mint as a average person but I will be buying your course $17 is well worth it seeing the time you put in to making the course and a good refresher for me. If anyone is unsure there is a free view of the course and I think after taking a look for those who want to learn Linux this is invaluable for the price. Thank you for the course and hope many more are to come.

[stephenambrose]

Fantastic. I really appreciate the time, effort and knowledge to put this together. I have been in and out of Linux Mint for years and there is simply no need to keep going back to Windows nowadays. It does everything I need and more. Big up to you sir.

[fishonskeenawild]

Very nice video. New user to Mint. Have this on my older laptop. Going to follow your guide. Thanks

[MeowseyX]

Awesome videos, lots of tweaks I didn't know about

[muddyexport]

Thanks for the info! Keep up the good work!!!

[seamuscz]

Hi @LinuxTex I would like to ask which video editing software you use on linux mint? Thank you :)

[ikust]

I am flabbergasted! I just changed this week to Linux Mint. I was pretty scared since the last time I look at Linux was 15 years ago at least . Wow!!!❤🎉
