Windows nervt dich? Zeit für was Besseres! 🐧

Kennst du das? Zwangsupdates, mysteriöse Abstürze und dein PC, der plötzlich sein Eigenleben führt...

"Von Windows zu Linux in 12 Kapiteln" ist dein Ausweg – OHNE Nerd-Abschluss! (Link unten)

Was dich erwartet:

  • Ein Schritt-für-Schritt-Guide, der dich WIRKLICH an die Hand nimmt
  • Keine Technik-Fachsprache, die nur Experten verstehen
  • Sicherheits-Tipps, mit denen Windows nicht mithalten kann
  • Praktische Lösungen für all deine "Ja, aber..."-Fragen
  • Zero Drama: Mit Snapshots & Backups geht nichts schief!
  • Und für GAMER: Linux rockt mittlerweile richtig hart! Deine Windows-Spiele laufen meist nicht nur problemlos – sie performen sogar BESSER! Das Buch zeigt dir genau, wie du als Gamer umsteigst, ohne auf deine Lieblingsspiele verzichten zu müssen. 🎮🔥

Linux ist längst nicht mehr nur was für Nerds! ✨

Christin Löhner zeigt dir, wie auch DU dich von Windows-Problemen verabschiedest. Ein Betriebssystem, das DIR gehört statt umgekehrt? Das gibt's wirklich! Und es fühlt sich verdammt gut an.

Du bekommst nicht nur eine technische Anleitung, sondern einen echten Begleiter für deinen Umstieg. Von den ersten Zweifeln bis zur stolzen "Ich-nutze-jetzt-Linux"-Aussage.

Die beste Nachricht? Du kannst es. Wirklich. Trau dich! Dein Windows-freies Leben wartet schon.

We've updated the wikis for NX AppHub CLI, NX AppHub Apps, and NX AppHub Daemon to clarify further misconceptions.

Additionally, we've updated NX AppHub CLI and the YAML specification to include sandboxing options using Firejail+AppArmor or Bubblewrap without requiring additional setup or reliance on the integration daemon.

CLI: github.com/Nitrux/nx-apphub/wi
Apps: github.com/Nitrux/nx-apphub-ap
Daemon: github.com/Nitrux/nx-apphubd/w
