Does anyone have experience or a guide for migrating from Windows to Linux?
I would like to move from windows to linux. Windows is on a separate SSD from all of my other files. I would like to avoid redownloading everything if possible.

best practices for contributing to currently in use tools?
I'm trying to get into contributing to open source development. I've forked a couple repos to my personal github and wrote this [noscript](https://github.com/skewballfox/arch-install-noscripts/blob/master/automata/git_synced) that I will soon turn write a service for to make sure that my fork is kept up to date with the master branch. I've forked mycroft, a couple of packages related to xi-editor, and openmw. I'm thinking about forking OpenMined(I really want to get into automated self tracking and think this would be a good client-side project for something using federated learning). Thing is I plan on actually using these packages on my machine, but also want to keep my system stable. Up until this point I've only wrote noscripts and services, and left larger programs to the package manager, so my knowledge of package management has been limited to tools like makepkg. I've also never really played around with software testing or profiling, outside of using timers and manually testing edge cases.
What are some good practices to adopt in order to both use and improve the tools like I would any other terminal program, while keeping my package up to date with devel, not overwriting my personal changes(ie git stash),automating this process(with something like buildbot) and avoiding bricking my build? it's totally okay if the package gets bricked, I mainly just want to make sure that the system doesn't go with it.

Linux college or tech courses?
Interested in going back to school to learn more about linux and hopefully make it a career choice. Is there a data base that can narrow done courses near me? I'd really like to do it hands on in a school setting. Would appreciate some input, also I live in Central Pennsylvania.

[Unpopular opinion] Adwaita isn't that bad.
We all have done it. We installed themes and icon packs and changed the looks of our GNOME desktop. They have refreshed the looks, not buy much, but enough for me not to care about changing the Gtk theme. In the end, Adwaita is not that ugly.
