I’m just so sick of Microsoft and Google. But there’s two things holding me back:

  1. I wanna play Steam games on my PC

  2. I am just an amateur hobbyist, not a tech wizard

Is there any hope for me?

    Can’t forget Zen Browser for best productivity browser. Also Ungoogled Chromium, and Brave (Especially Brave Leo functionality)

    OP if you want to use AI locally but privately then use Ollama with Open Web UI

    Also HuggingChat is an AI Chatbot that can do all kinds of stuff with the 1-tap community extensions, models, and assistants avilable. Website is free with an account. Use as a web app for it to be even better experience

    When you are more advanced learn distrobox to add apps only available on other distros natively to your laptop

    If you have any questions feel free to ask me whenever

      While Zen and ungoogled chromium are fine, I’d suggest to stay away from Brave for any serious purposes 'cause you never know what shady things they might be doing. Case in point, they had previously been changing regular URLs to include affiliate links on their own. They also have that crypto bloat.
