It’s only from what I heard from others and online articles. I haven’t read the books personally but that’s why I avoided them.

I didn’t read that series (referring to Ready Player One) since there was transphobic stuff the author put in the book.

But in terms of fun reading I would recommend the Monk & Robot series by Becky Chambers. It’s wholesome and heartwarming. It’s two sci-fi novellas.

I always need subtitles when I watch anything

Not happy about the cat in terf outfit 😔

That’s a really good point and I had forgotten about the updates being behind. Thank you for bringing that up!

There’s a lot of good suggestions here and I wanted to add pop os! it’s a beginner friendly Linux distribution but with more of a focus on gaming.

I’m a fairly new user to Linux and I first got a laptop with Pop OS since I read that it was a beginner friendly distro and great for gaming. Although I didn’t use it for gaming it was great to get to learn how to use Linux and use it for everyday purposes.

Later with lots of trial and error got Fedora Linux working on an old laptop with bad battery life that was lying around. I wanted to try my hand at a bit more of an advanced distro. So far I’m loving both distributions and learning more each day about how things work.
