My dad was messing with fedora 8 for a while, and i was interested. When he finally gave me an account i was confused with the new interface, so i went back to windows. Fast forwarding to about 6-7 years, i got my own laptop. I was getting really irritated with windows and its unexplained slowdowns, so i decided to install fedora. Unfortunately, i couldnt install it because it couldnt install GRUB or some error like that, so i went to ubuntu. It had most things that i needed to have in my computer. Firefox, libreoffice, vlc, and other things. I soon decided to get into the CLI and it is great once i got the hang of it.

I then realized that ubuntu was too bloated, so i started distro hopping. Crunchbang, debian minimal, and finally crux (with another linux installation of devuan). Throughout these months of finding the right system for me, i realized that although linux is better than windows, it is still not perfect and it has some flaws that keep it from being the new mainstream OS. So, with my interest in engineering, i decided to pursue a career in systems programming, so i can help make better computing for the world, creating faster and lighter software.
