FOSS – Free Open-Source Computer Software

I never buy computer software.

I use FOSS, Free Open Source Software, for everything.

Including, anti-malware security, word processing, writing and publishing my ebooks and PDFs, doing emails, blogs, spreadsheets, editing photos, internet ...

I use the Ubuntu Operating System, which is free from: https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop  

Ubuntu comes with all the free software, you might ever need, already installed.

Such as Free Security, LibreOffice, Firefox Web Browser, ...

I just add GIMP Graphics and Foliate Ebook Reader.

After Installing.

Click on Software Updater, every time you connect to the internet.

And, Software Updater can update everything, including your security and operating system, as well as programs that came with Ubuntu.

Avoiding Problems With Ubuntu.

1: Download the latest LTS Desktop version, from https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop , currently Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS, even if you have a notebook computer.

2: Disable Windows Fast Startup

3: Do an OEM Install. Do not do a Dual Boot.

4: Click on Software Updater, every time you connect to the internet, as soon as you connect to the internet.

5: Always have at least 1 GB of free space on your hard disc.

6: Only install extra software from the official Ubuntu repositories.

And, only after Clicking on Software Updater, to Update everything in the official Ubuntu repositories.

To install extra software, I use any 1 of the following 3 ways.

By,

a) clicking on the Ubuntu Software Icon, and searching for what I want;

b) pressing Control+Alt+t to open a Terminal; then typing, sudo snap install Name-Of-Program, in the command line;

c) pressing Control+Alt+t to open a Terminal; then typing sudo apt install Name-Of-Program, in the command line;

For example, to install both GIMP Graphics and Foliate Ebook Reader, you do not have to go to their websites.

Just press Control+Alt+t to, open a Terminal, and then type: sudo apt install GIMP; sudo snap install foliate

Internet and Telephone

I use prepaid.

More expensive but no bill-shock.

Saving Money Without Reducing Quality: Food, Clothes, Shoes, Housing, And Other Necessities

A Note For People With Credit Cards

Every dollar, you spend on interest; is 1 less dollar, you can spend on what you want.

Credit Cards often come with extremely high interest rates.

And, retailers often charge you an extra fee when you use a Credit Card.

I Do Not Have Any Credit Cards

You could save a lot of money, on interest and fees, by paying off and replacing your Credit Cards with Debit Cards.

You might keep one low-fee Credit Card, to use only for a short-term emergency, and pay off as quickly as possible.

I Have Debit Cards

Retailers, at least in Australia, have no right to charge you extra on a Debit Card.

If someone tries to charge you extra with your Debit Card.

Tell them, your card is a Debit Card.

If they still want to charge you an extra fee on your Debit Card, do not buy from them, go somewhere else.

Internet Security

For security on the internet, I have a separate Debit Card, to pay for things, such as URLs, on the internet.

I only keep a few hundred dollars, on this Debit Card, in case it gets hacked.
