Many members there are computer users who recently moved to Linux from other OSs, Windows in particular. Having established their work and hobbies on a particular software base, they often encounter difficulties trying to find similar software on Linux.

Here you can ask, propose, comment about some software alternative you’re looking for.

It’s important to be broad-minded when speaking about software alternatives when switching to Linux:

Exactly the same software could be available for Linux.
Different software but with similar critical features could be available for Linux.
It could be possible to use emulators (such as Wine) of the old OS.
Finally, one can change one’s perspective or workflow, in such a way that the old software is not needed any longer, but is replaced with other software of a different kind (this may actually lead to much improved workflows).

Role of conduct: The same as in Lemmy and Mastodon: in summary, be respectful, no offensive language, no harassment, no spam.

Visibility: Public
