Open Source 2019

So I am still using Linux Mint 18.3 and loving it.

I switched back to Google Chrome. Firefox does not download very fast and it glitches on some websites.

Thunderbird is still my email client. Rhythmbox is my music player. I am still using Audacity for my podcast, and WordPress for my blogs.

The only non-open source program I use is Paint Shop Pro 7. I use it in Linux using Wine.

Hoping for good things for Linux and Open Source in 2019.

Spread the love
