I purchased my first computer in 2007. At that time I had no formal knowledge of computers. I used it for regular desktop work for almost 4-5 years. 

I started using linux with Linux Mint 2 years back.For regular work it was good.I don't know why people say you can't work on linux if you don't know commands. I used Linux Mint almost 7 months without using any command. Then I switched to CentOS, I don't know why. On CentOS I learnt about basic commands. 

A2017 was a bad year for 32-bit linux distributions. As CentOS 7 for 32-bit was discontinued, then I moved to Fedora.

I joined unix.stackexchange.com because of trivial issues. If I come across some strange thing, I come here to ask it on the main site or in the chat room. 

Most of the users are helpful, they ask you about greater details or simply answer your question. Sometimes they answer in a comment. Well, an answer is an answer if it solves a problem. The questions and chat room interactions are very useful for any rung of learners.!
