Genuine question, so they actually work better now?

I mostly use it to set timers and alarms, but once in a while i set reminders but they often come out like i need to buy “dead foot”, when I’m out of cat food for example

Ubuntu (and most other linux distributions) have a slightly different way of installing programs and applications. It has an app store, similar to Android and iOS, you can search for Firefox (and other apps) from in there. If I’m not mistaken, Ubuntu searched and notifies you for updates regularly.

The philosophy of Ubuntu (and most other linux distributions) is that you don’t need to go to a bunch of different sites to download your software, you can just download all your software from the “app store”.

And all of these tools are GUI’s (so ‘point and click’-based), so you don’t need to open a terminal, if you don’t want to.

Did you mispell your name? This is clearly a malicious black ajah proposal.

I like the nuance of not having a total noob, but instead a amatausiast!
