Hello.
I just switch to Linux mint from Windows. And I found that there is some software that are preinstalled that does the same that what I would have installed myself.
For example, I use qbittorent and there is something called “Transmission” that does torrenting.
I use VLC for video playing and there is something called “Celluloid”.
Are the software preinstalled on Mint generally good at what they are doing and beginner friendly? Should I check for Linux version of the software I use on Windows or rather experiment with what is here?
Thank you for your help.
The good thing about Linux is: preinstalled literally just means preinstalled. Not preferred, not prerequisite, and perfectly uninstallable.
But that’s all I have to say. You can test each and see if you like them, or look up what people think of each individualy. If you don’t like one, just uninstall it, and install your preferred alternative.
Yes, I will probably test them whether I keep them or not. Thank you for answering me.
