Just keep at it. You got this!

Take a little breather, if needed.

Sounds good. Thanks for the input.

Is it worth nuking my PopOS to try CachyOS?

I like the stability of Ubuntu and a lot of projects usually have deb files officially, like Signal. However, my start up time on Pop is oddly long and have Bluetooth issues (which is fine as I dont use it very often).

I was on Bazzite for a bit. It was fine but the immutability was a bit annoying for me when editing files. Then on Nobara which was also fine but plasma crashed on me several times which caused me to repair it each time in order for it to work again.

That’s pretty wild. I honestly haven’t looked at how much ram is used on the computer. It hasn’t been sluggish so hasn’t come to mind. Mostly use a browser, teams, and a VPN.

Its not my machine, so I don’t really care. As long as it doesn’t prevent me from doing the work, then that is the employers problem what OS they want to enforce.

On my personal computer, I run what I want and will continue to do so where possible. Hence, why I like using Linux.

Probably same time. Gives them enough time to work on bugs.

+1 Making a habit of just exercise/going to the gym is the most important step. Do whatever is appealing to you on the first couple of weeks. Make at least a 15 minute session and repeat for the first couple of weeks.

Once you have some kind of habit of just going then you can begin focusing of what you want from the gym. If doing weights is your goal, technique is more important than weight. For cardio, just slowly increase the speed or volume (time) you work out for. Small steps are easier to stick to than going big at first.

This is great advice!

To add to this, doing some light exercise and spending some time away from busy life, like in nature, can also help improve mental well-being.
