Linux Mint Cinnamon is very low friction to install and use for first timers from Windows

I never thought to check if there was French available! Nice callout. The English VA is really good though.

Exactly what I was going to say. This is an admission that the costs of tariffs hit US companies, not the country of origin that the tariff was levied against.

Didn’t they literally just lose a court case about this very thing?

He was not the least bit scared to be smashed into a pulp. Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin!

Yes, and he has two powers: brick-throwing and frog-being.

The bottom picture is of Faith, the “second Slayer” in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, who was chosen as the new Slayer following Buffy’s first death. She used this phrase a lot. It was the style of the time.

True for me too, only I did buy a PS5, then a Steam Deck, then built a Linux gaming PC. I doubt I’ll ever go back to PS again, not after this gen.

Plus, I’ve never glimpsed another bathroom-goer’s potty parts in a public bathroom. It’s such a made-up non-issue.

 

I'm new to Linux; I fled from Windows in the wake of 10-11 ever-accelerating stream of bullshit.

Anyway, I have major muscle memory for MRU window and tab switching with alt-tab and ctrl-tab. Edit for clarity: I also want to be able to navigate to the Nth most recent tab by holding Ctrl and pressing Tab N times, then releasing Ctrl. I use it all the time to switch windows, switch browser tabs, and switch IDE tabs. In Windows, I could also switch Terminal tabs in MRU order, and I miss this in Linux. My distro (Mint) comes with gnome-terminal, which as far as I can tell doesn't expose MRU switching as an option.

Is there an alternative terminal that does support this, ideally with ctrl-tab? Alternatively, if you use MRU switching in other contexts but not in your terminal, what do you use instead?

UPDATE

After installing many different terminals and poring through documentation of widely varying quality, I have found at least two terminal emulators that just do what I want, out of the box: Konsole and QTerminal. I'll dive deeper into the relative merits of these two for now. If you know of another terminal that does what I described, or any crucial info about either Konsole or QTerminal, please let me know!
