Yes and No... Yesterday there was someone on another forum asking what Linux version he should use for his transition from Windows, based on his graphical/video/3d needs. He got 10 different Linux distros and a handful of GUI's as an answer. Linux for the uninformed is just a hot mess regarding distributions. People are used to one Windows version. Or one Mac. Not having to choose from a pile of... what actually? And yes, Linux Mint would be a great replacement as long as you use the PC for the basics. Anything else will quickly result in frustration and searching on various forums. Linux isn't really the easy replacement for Windows. As I hate to say it, transitioning to a Mac is a way better experience. And I'm not entirely unfamiliar with Linux, having extensively dabbled with Mint and lately with Rocky for my Davinci Resolve experiments. It's still a pain... It really is.. -

iOS 26 leaks reveal AI-powered Messages, animated Music lock screen, and CarPlay redesign by Sagar Naresh Bhavsar A lot of these are reportedly changing this year for Apple. While the "Plus" model is expected to be replaced with the iPhone 17 Air, the iOS software is also expected to undergo a major branding change. Instead of iOS 19, Apple is rumored to introduce iOS 26 at the upcoming WWDC 2025 event on June 9. Not only iOS, but the change is expected across all platforms. Meaning, from this year, it could all be streamlined: iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS 26, watchOS 26, and more. However, since Apple Intelligence is still in its early stages, Apple is expected to introduce a slew of new features to apps such as Music, Messages, Notes, and CarPlay. According to 9to5Mac, Apple is preparing some "low-profile enhancements" for everyday apps, based on the information from previously accurate sources. As per the report, the Messages app could get an "Automatic Translation" feature that will make use of AI (artificial intelligence) to translate both incoming and outgoing messages. Plus, the Messages app could also gain a "Polls" feature, letting group chat members vote directly within the app. Apple Music is also expected to get a new full-screen animated lock screen artwork, enhancing the Now Playing widget by bringing a maximized look to the album art on the lock screen. The Notes app could also gain the ability to export notes in Markdown, a long-requested feature that third-party apps have supported for years. Apple recently introduced CarPlay Ultra, with some amazing changes, but that is limited to a few luxury cars at the moment. The standard CarPlay is expected to get a UI overhaul with iOS 26. While details remain under wraps, the new interface is speculated to reflect the sleek, glass-like design of iOS 26. Since these are still rumors, we suggest you take them with a pinch of salt. If you are confused about which iPhones will support iOS 26, you can check out the list of supported phones here. -
