I actually switched to Ubuntu full-time way back in 2006 when I went back to school (anthro major), specifically to help me focus when using my computer and not get distracted by playing video games. Of course, nowadays with wine and proton on steam, that might not be as effective. But it worked well for me, never experienced any issues with word docs opening in libre office (or rather open office back then) or vice versa. There was once or twice where I had to use a computer in the lab in the library to run some niche program or another for an assignment, but not a big deal.

You mean the ones where all the comments say [deleted]?

I use wX from f-droid. It uses data from the National Weather Service, so it might not be useful if you are located outside the US.

Which is funny because if you’ve ever been to an area that’s recently been logged (or “thinned” as they like to spin it), the ground is completely covered by a thick layer of all the branches they’ve trimmed off. Nope, no fire hazard there…
