My daily driver on Linux Mint XFCE
After sharing my video about replacing Windows with Linux, I received a few requests for a full setup walkthrough.
In this video, I walk through how I set up my daily driver using Linux Mint XFCE.
We cover:
• A quick recap of the system settings on this modest and budget friendly device
• A look at the preinstalled apps and tools that come with Linux Mint XFCE
• Installing a few additional apps and tools that I personally use
• Customizing the desktop, panel, and application menu with favorites
• Customizing the web browser for everyday use
This is a real and unscripted setup based on what works well for me on low powered hardware.
Disclaimer: I am not a professional. I am simply a tech nerd learning in public and documenting what works for me.
