Hey 👋 dear Linux Community,

I’m still kinda new to Linux (started using this year 😅) I already made it to my main OS, even if I still missing some things which I used on Windows, anyway. What I wanted to ask you guys, what recommendations do you have for Linux Mint (Cinnamon)? In terms of security, optimization, (a way to make the UI looking modern ;-;) and privacy? I would be very interested in what you do guys to optimize your Linux setup :) I’m pretty technical, so there is nothing which could overwhelm me (probaly).

Thx! 🤍

    Give this a shot. https://lemmy.ml/post/511377

    Install GUFW on your favourite Linux distro, set it to Home, and you need not do anything else. Do the usual stuff like using Firefox with uBlock Origin on easy or medium mode.

    Here is my Debian 12 GNOME Stable setup, which takes maybe 15 minutes.
