Thanks for the summary so I don't feel I've missed anything by not watching the video.

I just switched to Linux, and made a list of the about 80 programs I have used on Windows that I still want or need to use, and started listing the replacements I'll use in Linux. Within two days, almost all of them had answers I was happy with.

Now I'm down to only three I don't have a great way to run in Linux yet: Photoshop, MS Visual Studio, and my tax software, though I think at least two of those can probably run in a VM, once I get around to getting that set up. Meanwhile I can terminal in to a remote and/or virtual Windows machine if/when I need to.

    Isn't there a Visual Studio for Linux? Or am I just thinking of Visual Studio Code? I'm not going to pretend that GIMP can do everything that Photoshop can do, but it has come a long way.
