Old Amiga user here - There's something about GNU/Linux that felt instantly familiar for me - it instantly clicked. I too lost too many years on Windows...

BTW as an Amiga fan, let me take you back to Kickstart 1.3 and a few demos:

When I discovered Linux, I bought a few Linux magazines - and realised that Linux Format (a monthly in the UK) seemed to carry over much of the same staff from Amiga Format. I had a weird sense of losing the party for a while and somehow chancing upon it again. That website is great, and weirdly the Amiga has come up a couple of times this week. One was marcan mentioning an X1000 driver which he's using for his asahilinux project, and another was re-discovering some Amiga games tunes that the author has commented on 25 years later on YouTube.
