I installed #Fedora (with #Gnome and #Sway) on my new #Thinkpad ! (Alongside Wind*ws, which I do not use at all, but will keep around on a small partition, just in case). It will replace my antique #MacBookPro, running #Manjaro #i3, as my daily workhorse. Made an #apple pie 🥧 to celebrate. :fedora:

Very happy with my new #keyboard! Typing on it feels great and I also like that the FN and CTRL keys are in the *right* order: First - and most left - FN, then CTRL. Very convenient when using #Emacs. I never really used a #trackpoint before, but now I'm hooked! 😃
