Migration-Guide: From Windows to Fedora Linux
Switching operating systems is a big step for many people – often accompanied by uncertainties. This is exactly the situation my parents are facing right now: Windows 10 will soon stop receiving updates, and Windows 11 hasn’t won them over. The design, new hardware requirements, and overall usability of Windows 11 just don’t align with what they want. At the same time, my mother still vividly remembers a frustrating experience she had with Ubuntu years ago, which convinced her that Linux, in general, was not for her.
This is where Fedora Linux comes into play. Fedora offers a modern, user-friendly, and stable platform that is ideal for both Linux newcomers and experienced users. Unlike Ubuntu, Fedora strikes a well-balanced mix of innovation and reliability without overwhelming the user with unnecessary restrictions. Fedora avoids proprietary software and privacy concerns often associated with other operating systems and provides an open, transparent environment that can be tailored to individual needs.
In this article, I want to demonstrate how the transition can be made as smooth as possible. Ultimately, Fedora should prove that Linux is not just a powerful tool for developers but also an excellent alternative for everyday use, even for skeptical users.
