I want to second this. Paid is only $2 a month or $20 a year. Excellent for blocking various trackers on all devices even those not on your home network.

For SF, I recommend Primer. Its definitely a challenging movie as there’s no clear exposition, but I found myself wanting to watch it several times to piece it altogether.

It depends on what you are trying to learn. If it’s just using it as a desktop then it’s more a matter of just using it for a while to change your muscle memory from Win or Mac.

If you’re looking for more of a command line/server experience, most distros have excellent documentation. This may be a minority opinion, but I personally like Oracle Linux (a Red Hat clone) and their documentation; https://docs.oracle.com/en/operating-systems/oracle-linux/index.html

I also like FreeBSD which isn’t technically Linux but very similar in a lot of regards. They also have excellent documentation; https://docs.freebsd.org/en/

Ultimately, which distro you wind up liking is entirely subjective and one of the great aspects of the open source world. Oracle in particular you may see a lot of hate towards, but I’ve always had good success with their products and support. Best of luck!

Try not to look at it as getting a $100 of technology, but rather if you’d get $100 dollars of entertainment out of it.
