It’s on YouTube as well.

Thanks for sharing.

With “Beginners Guide to Linux” in the title, I don’t think the video is suitable for anyone who hasn’t already tried Linux.

There’s not even a mention of what a “distro” is, and if I had never used Linux before and watched this video, I’d run away as fast as I could. It’s way too complex, and mentions way too many things that I’ve probably never heard of before.

That being said, I don’t know who his demographic is. I’m always glad to see some effort into helping people discover Linux, but I fear this might have the opposite effect.

I like the OnlyOffice software. It’s almost too good, like I feel like I should be wary of it. It has connections to Russia, but apparently it’s open source and all that jazz so from what I I understand it’s just good software.

Please correct me if I’m wrong.

Yes, good for me. Good for everybody. Yippee!

I’ve never needed to manually create a start menu entry. I install everything through the default repository or as a flatpak using the default software manager. I did have to manually enable flatpaks in the software manager (point for OP, admittedly).

Everything I’ve ever installed, including AppImages from time to time, always gets a start menu entry.
