The screenshots look kinda outdated, how themeable is it? the global search looks great

how does that work? and what do you use?

Honestly, if you:

• don’t care about data getting collected on an os you paid for
• don’t care about getting ads on an os you paid for
• don’t care about performance and have a fast computer
• (*) can’t bother re-leaning how to do some things
• (*) can’t bother facing and debugging some problems that you might encounter
• (*) don’t care about being able to do things faster, at the cost of knowing exactly where to find things the moment you start using the system
• don’t care about being able to customize any part of the system however you want

then you might want to stay on Windows.

(*) this depends on which distribution you choose. some are very similar to windows and beginner friendly.
