Though virtual machines are not perfect and performance isn’t great if you are not using buffed up hardware, it can still give you a nice idea of how it will look and feel before installing it on the hard disk. I searched for the installation image, loaded in my USB stick and booted it on my VM to test things out.īy the way, you should do the same if you want to test a bunch of Linux distros before finally hopping on to one. Anyway, I installed it when I saw a tweet from a user who captioned “macOS, but for the Linux users”. It is actually my primary OS which I use for daily purposes (I guess that makes me an experienced user?). Now, I’m not a new user, I’ve been using Elementary OS for about 16 months. In this article, I will discuss the good, bad, and ugly side of Elementary OS, in detail. But if you dig a bit down and use it for a while, you will get to know that Elementary OS is actually different from the other Linux distributions in a good way.
It’s polished, it’s easy and super stable, you may already know a bit or more about it. Another Linux distribution aimed for regular users and professionals. I hope you already know about Elementary OS.
