@24, I'm using ubuntu, gnome with the mate desktop on top, but only when I feel like it. Otherwise it's just the tipical ubuntu with gnome3. Yeah, it might be kinda inaccessible, however it's good enough to bridge the gap between no gui at all and too much gui, to the point even the terminal is a kind of gui of sorts..
@24, I would do that too, but I just have too many apps and things on the main C drive to reinstall them. I don't have any problem with documents, have all of them backed up, but the apps...something else. So, how do you guys usually do it? will the reset this pc option in settings delete my programs too? I don't have so much experience with windows anymore, using linux full time nowadays.
