Just to be safe you may want to copy important files to a cloud storage AND usb drive before formatting the drive.
Also don’t overthink this and there is nothing wrong with Kubuntu, but Kinoite is going to be very similar and a little more resistant to n00b tinkering mistakes.
True, I edited my comment. I personally recommend the USB method (or if you have easy access to the internals- just swapping out an SSD).
First of all, you are on feddit.nl and cannot speak for"Lemmy". That said- if anything, “Lemmy” users should be supporting independent journalism like 404 Media.
It’s to prevent scraping/harvesting by AI: https://www.404media.co/why-404-media-needs-your-email-address/
They do not ask for a phone number.
It takes some doing, but you can live boot windows from a USB drive for those rare instances you need it. You can also just install it to a VM inside Linux (also not easy). But honestly these days the times where you’ll NEED Windows are few and far between (and getting fewer and farther).
Bazzite is a custom image of Kinoite, but I’m not surprised it’s taking off, it’s great.

Unless I’m misunderstanding it looks like they do work with rclone https://rclone.org/protondrive/
Suuure 
Are you a bot lmao it looks nothing like lcars
This is cool but why can’t we change the whole theme😖
Any inconveniences you’ve noticed with Graphene? For example I’ve heard tap to pay functionality doesn’t work.
Well said, I was thinking maybe the entire reason OPs charisma is -1 is because they’re out there trying to convince people to do something instead of just doing their own thing.
TikTok → Reddit → Lemmy → …grass?
I agree re: Fedora, especially the atomic varieties. I do think Zorin is good at what it is but it has a pretty specific use case.
Also, had no idea you were also in this community. Pleasant surprise.
Had the same thought, it’s always nice to encounter a civilized person of distinguished taste and culture out here in the wilds.
Even without costs you will always have some faction of FOSS users who view UIs and user-friendliness to be something that can be optimized away (and will always, always, let you know their feelings on the topic).
It’s not a scam at all, Zorin is a good distro.
10/10 this is the future of Linux
Totally agree
op asked about the r/linux community which was not mentioned in either of your comments
You’ve got the right idea, uploading content on old internet was (largely) about putting yourself out there hoping to find like minded people to connect with. All those “quirky, weird” websites people nostalgize over weren’t seeking clout, they were seeking connection.
I think it’s healthy to deprogram ourselves from the idea that “followers” are the goal of creating content. If an influencer is making “art” with the express purpose of getting followers that they can leverage into marketing deals, then are they really making art? If the goal is to make money then… that’s just a job, imo.
