I've worked in IT for over 25+ years, mainly in Windows but getting into Linux Mint and loving it. It's something I've should have done years ago but sticking to what I knew with the complicated setup at the house just kept me with Windows but with simplifying my home network with the kids moving out has been a fun experience now and learning new things everyday is the goal in life, right? :D
But working my way through domain file shares, VPN's, gaming and remote media systems all through Mint and having a ton of fun. I've found some solutions on my own that I couldn't find answers for and will post those as I go to help others coming over from Windows.

| de.haeckerfelix.Shortwave "This is an awesome app. There is soooo many options to listen to and then the ability to download them as well. I love this. I'm finding small apps like this on the weekly that makes moving to Linux and ever enjoyable experience and my love of PC's again. I love this!" |

| steam-installer "Steam has worked pretty much since download with little issues getting games to work smooth as silk. Ryzen 7 5800x with 6800XT vid card. Forza Horizon 5, Sniper Elite Resistance, BG 3 were my big concerns before migrating to Linux and it's been a none issue. Ghost Recon Wildlands, Dirt 4, Solastra... Everything just ... works! It's awesome! " |

| ksnip "This is very much like an early SnagIt! Windows app if anyone is familiar with that as it's got pointer options, multi-second delay options, allows for actual wording in your choice of locations and just over all a much better option then what you get with the SnipIt tool in Windows 10 and Win 11. This is exactly what I was looking for because of support reasons. " |
