Welcome and introduce yourself - 2021

Hello everyone! This is Firestar from Guangzhou, China!(Am I the first Chinese in this page and the 2020 Introduce yourself page?) I started using Manjaro last summer, and I have written my own installing tips.

The name Firestar comes from Erin Hunter’s Warriors. I use the same name in the old forum. I am not an native-English speaker, in fact I speak mainly Mandarin and a bit Cantonese (which is even worse than English lol).

I am a student studying astronomy (in Peking University) which relies deeply on *nix systems and as I do not want to buy an expensive MacBook, I choose Manjaro Linux. Another reason is that Manjaro provide better security, privacy and more choice.

Although open source custom and *nix systems (as daily-used OS instead of Windows) is not very popular in China for some historical reasons, I appreciate your contributions to Manjaro. Thanks to the Manjaro team and Community!
