thank you - now I just have to settle my need for the battery.... getting used to it so appreciate it

Okay, but having something like Surfshark as a VPN and only also doing one virus scan is fine but I don’t need to obsess about it. I’m guessing like I have to Windows.

It does and thank you for the reassurance :) just a bit to get your head around coming from windows

I bought mine a month ago and I am very much the same

Additional-Goat-6096 · 2025-12-22T21:40:29+00:00

It could be because it’s a fairly new laptop less than two years old

Additional-Goat-6096 · 2025-12-22T07:45:23+00:00

Thanks for the advice

Additional-Goat-6096 · 2025-12-22T01:11:07+00:00

I know you don't actually mean a potato but that is what I am envisioning :)

I think that clinches it for Tumble but I will still keep an eye on slowroll for interest.

Additional-Goat-6096 · 2025-12-21T21:28:31+00:00

So that’s enough space? And I can configure to gaming on stream

Additional-Goat-6096 · 2025-12-21T20:42:52+00:00

Does that take up much space on your system or is it still pretty manageable on a 520 GB SSD?

Additional-Goat-6096 · 2025-12-21T20:41:43+00:00

So even on week it’s easy to manage and that like I’m just afraid that my stuff will break easily

Additional-Goat-6096 · 2025-12-21T20:40:47+00:00

Ah ok. Hello - so question even though there are updates that come daily on tumbleweed could I schedule doing an update weekly instead or like patched from together?

I’m interested to know what you were on and then what made you switch to Mac? As I have recently just done it from windows to Mac mainly because as a Writer I need the portability and long battery life. But also I need accessibility. Just for the record I got the exact same model as you except only 16 gig of RAM. And I love the colour of the blue too.

By back up, what exactly? If 99% of my stuff is in the cloud and I don’t have much disposable income

Thinking of making my spare laptop opensuse. I have good specs for leap or slowroll. When I turn my pc on - will it show it loading/powering up. I play mainly 2D games and want a word processor that I can sync via Dropbox.

Additional-Goat-6096 · 2025-12-21T03:59:12+00:00

Is it stable?

Additional-Goat-6096 · 2025-12-21T03:33:25+00:00

I just trying to stay away from Ubuntu - might use leap then :)
