FOSS – Free Open-Source Computer Software

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.
