This is a basic introduction to Linux. It answers two questions: what is GNU/Linux? And what it can offer its users? See the advantages for yourself.

And if you like, Subscribe! :)

A few key features I forgot to mention in the video:

1. GNU/Linux operating systems are MUCH less susceptible to viruses -- HUGE plus! You don't have to pay annually for any antivirus software or worry about your PC data being compromised in ways that Windows is vulnerable.

2. GNU/Linux operating systems use less system resources than Windows, allowing most machines to run much faster with GNU/Linux installed. Much. Faster.

TRY IT! - For those looking to switch to Linux from Windows or give it a try without installing it on your machine. Ubuntu is Free Your Mind's primary GNU/Linux distribution of choice. You can download and learn about this brilliant OS at http://ubuntu.com/desktop.

Thanks for watching! Cheers.

Thanks for your video. I was looking for information about Linux because I'm sick of Windows 10 and all the updates that fail to install. I've known about Linux for decades but thought it might be difficult, but you don't make it sound difficult at all. My PC is not for work so I can learn at my own pace.

Im watching this because Im getting annoyed of increasingly restrictive Google services and Android and I want FREEDOM. Lineage OS and Linux look like the way to go for me!
