+## **Introduction**
+You need to learn _Linux_ because there is no reason not to. If you
+are pursuing a career in IT then you will without a doubt come across
+_Linux_ and having even basic knowledge is very helpful. Many people
+struggle with the OS simply because it's fundamentally different
+compared to the other operating systems, but with a bit of time you
+can master the basics and unlock it's true power.
+
+![true power](/gif/mha-power.gif)
+
+## **But Why**
+**Linux is everywhere**, from data centres to your smart toaster. So
+if you are interesting in anything IT related then it's a great asset
+to have.
+
+Linux is great for power users because it allows you to customise all
+aspects of your workflow to make it yours. The amount of
+customisability is mind blowing and an endless rabbit hole which is
+awesome as there is always something you could implement to improve
+your workflow.
+
+Another great aspect of the customisability is the crazy number of
+options you can choose from to theme and tailor the Linux desktop
+experience to your liking. For some great and inspiring examples
+checkout [r/unixporn](https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/). This
+is what drove me to switch to Linux and Arch specifically.
+
+Linux is very Light weight (Depending on Distribution) and much
+faster than competing operating systems simply because more often
+than not the distributions of Linux are not filled with bloatware.
+The most extreme examples of this are distros like Arch or something
+like LFS (Linux From Scratch) where you get a completely bare bones
+installation of Linux and are required to install everything from
+Network Managers, to the Desktop Environment, although this can seem
+pointless at the start as you use more and more distros you will find
+things you like and don't on each and something like Arch allows you
+to choose every bit of software that is installed and come up with
+something completely custom. Plus then you can say `I use Arch BTW`
+
+## **How can you start**
+
+### **Install Linux as your main OS**
+This is the full send option.
+
+A great Distribution that I recommend is [Manjaro with KDE Plasma](https://manjaro.org/downloads/official/kde/)
+as it offers a heavily customisable desktop environment `KDE Plasma`
+and Manjaro itself is a great as it's Arch based but does not require
+you to start from step 0.
+
+### ***MacOS*** **Terminal**
+_MacOS_ is actually _UNIX_ based and so **if you have an _apple
+Mac/MacBook_ all you need is the Terminal** application. I used this on
+my work machine and it's a great alternative to the full send option.
+However I do not recommended this if you don't own one of these devices
+already due to cost 💸
+
+### ***Windows WSL***
+The _Windows Subsystem for Linux_ is another great option to get started
+with _Linux_, it installs the _Linux Kernel_ in windows and allows you
+to play around in a real _Linux_ environment.
+
+### **Virtual Machines**
+If there is a specific Distribution of _Linux_ you want to try then
+this is a great option. However if you want to simply get to know
+_Linux_ then choose the _MacOS_ terminal or _WSL_ methods as they are
+a lot lighter on system resources
+
+## Conclusion
+**Why are you still reading go and get stuck in with _Linux_ 💨**
+
+![do it](/gif/do-it.gif)
+
+As with anything learning _Linux_ is a journey and will take time.
+Enjoy the experience of learning it and uncovering it's hidden powers
+because it is well worth it. I have linked some great resources for
+other great Linux related content that helped me.
