New User from PH

Post by kbxty2p »

Hi everyone.

As thread title says, I'm a new user. I recently switched from Windows 11 to 21.3 Cinnamon. I am using an HP Pavilion 15 Laptop.

Some observations:

- Audio is a little bit weaker compared to windows. I am looking for a work around regarding this.
- Linux Mint just occupied around 25+ GB of my SSD, Windows on the other hand ate twice of that.
- I was worried my printer wont run at first but after looking for instructions online, it just took me 5 minutes to install and print. Whew.
- I am surprised most of the things(apps if you may) I do with windows, I can find an alternative. Very convenient, but as a first timer I have to get used to everything ofc!

That is it for now. I will be posting updates if I encounter some problems.

If there are other users from the PH here, don't hesitate to say Hi :mrgreen:

Lastly, I am surprised this forum is actually active. Great community, and I hope I can contribute in the future!
Cheers

Hello kbxty2p,
Welcome to the Linux Mint forum. Enjoy the journey! :)
Spent some time in PH in the 1970's :)
audio is normally a bit weaker in Mint. You can increase the upper audio limit above 100% in the audio setting menu.
