5 of the Best #Linux Distros for Beginners

The Complete Guide to Install Raspberry Pi Headless and Wireless

You have a RaspberryPi to install, but no extra keyboard and no external monitor? No problem!

#RPi #Linux #Rasbian #Install #Headless #Wireless

#gnu #linux not necessarily going in a positive direction when most news about it involves #drm (Valve) and #surveillance with back doors (WSL/ChromeOS)

A number of #Linux distros are perfectly well-suited to beginners and I think #openSUSE is at least number 6 of "5 of the Best Linux Distros for Beginners" because

✅ openSUSE Leap is rock solid
✅ with the best out of the box #KDE experience
✅ KDE fits well if you switch from Windows
✅ YaST is the best control center if you're still afraid of the terminal
✅ openSUSE is a great community driven #FOSS project
✅ You can easily install software from software.opensuse.org
