I'm only 20 minutes in and you are making it easy for me (75 yo) to understand most of what you are saying. Microsoft is killing my pc that may grandson built for me back in 2015 with os 7 which I upgraded to os 10 for free. But now it takes my system over 15 minutes to startup and it has a lot of os 11 being downloaded. All I use the computer (tower type) for is reading (52 inch monitor as I have bad eye sight) and surfing (T Mobile hub connection). I don't need the office stuff. Thanks for making it easy to comprehend as I'll be watching this for a while.

It would be unfair to my conscience and humankind if I watched this video without leaving a review. I have watched a couple of Linux videos on KZread, and I can tell you, that your teaching pattern is 10/10. you broke it down to the level that any layman could comprehend. Thank you so much!

I normally don't leave comments but this one deserves some kudos. I love how you took your time. I appreciate the patience. I will be following you to do more.

For those who are wondering, this is a very introductory course, do not expect to find here commands and concepts beyond the basics for a relatively standard use of the operating system.

2:07:55 To show "ps" list of processes, it is more useful to use "ps -eaf" rather than "ps -A" to show memory use, CPU time, how long ago started, user-ID, and more. This usually outputs several pages of text, so you may also want to pipe it through grep, less, awk, or sort+head, to focus on the processes you want. The "pstree" command will show which procs are related to each other, as parent & child, in a branch/indented tree. For a quick screen of the heaviest process load on your machine... use command "top" which shows top CPU use, updated every 10 seconds. (press "q" to quit)

I have tried some commands/installation in Linux but was never confident becauz i don not the basics of the Linux OS. your session is super useful to get started and understand the basics. Thanks a lot, appreciate it. Eagerly waiting for your next session which covers advanced stuff.

Such a smooth explanation! I've never thought that teaching can be so enjoyable

Excellent introductory course, thank you. It's quite a brain strain to go from GUI to command line but worth it in the end. Two very minor comments, neither of them reduced the huge value of the course, I'm only mentioning them in case they help. At about 1h20 you used 'cd ..' but hadn't mentioned '..' before. Also in the section on 'apt' a quick description of what a linux 'package' is might help. Thanks again for a really helpful video.

Stick with Mint. Save yourself the frustration of Ubuntu (or Gnome 3 to be exact). Mint/Cinnamon is far better than Ubuntu/Gnome. In the recent decade or so, Gnome has the habit of looking for any program that works just find, discarding it, and then they proceed to build an inferior version of it, with about 5% of its original functionality! Just compare Gnome Files to the original old Nautilus (Or Nemo in Mint). Tl;dr: Stick with Mint/Cinnamon, Gnome is trash.

Good that he talked a bit about Stallman. But he should have explained what free software actually means. Free has multiple meanings in english and in this case, it is about rights. It's not free as in free beer. Thus, sometimes free software is called libre software. Stallman recommends to watch his TED talk in which he explained the importance of free software. So yeah. Btw. if you are a new user you might want to join a community (forum, reddit, chat platform). By regularly checking a community, you will see what other people share and thus you might learn new things every few days. I for instance am active in the Linux Gaming community on Matrix and Discord (tho discord is not a good platfom and unfree software..).
