Welcome to DistroStart
The bridge from Windows to Linux, designed for humans.
Most Linux websites are written by experts, for experts. They talk about kernels, code, and command lines before you’ve even installed your first app. DistroStart is different.
We believe that switching to Linux should be a freedom, not a chore. Our mission is to help the everyday Windows user find a faster, more private, and more reliable home for their digital life.
What you’ll find here:
Start Here: A guided roadmap for your first 24 hours in Linux.
The Flow: Real-time pulses on the Linux world and quick-fire tips.
Insights: Deep dives into privacy, digital sovereignty, and the “why” behind open source.
Reviews & Tutorials: Honest evaluations of software and step-by-step guides for gaming, productivity, and system setup.
