OSFirstTimer is a YouTube channel run by Philip Adams. This channel has Philip's family (his mum, dad, and younger sister) test out various operating systems. As of January 8th, 2020, OSFirstTimer has reached the milestone of 100 thousand subscribers.

In every episode, five basic tasks are given to complete on these operating systems.

The original aim of OSFirstTimer was to find the best operating system which eventually turned out to be Arch Linux with the KDE desktop environment installed; it was given the unofficial name of 'The Diana Perfect OS' as Diana (Philip's mum) personalized it to her liking. MS-DOS was declared the worst operating system in the 'Top 3 Worst and Best Operating System User Interfaces' video.

After the best and worst operating systems were decided, the channel then solely focused on exploring operating systems in general; this was expanded upon with the OSFirstTimer Advanced series.

Philip took a break from uploading on OSFirstTimer from October 2018 to December 2019 due to renovations in their house in Tasmania.

Renovations were completed and Phil uploaded a video on the 9th of December 2019 to explain why he couldn't upload due to VFR (Variable Frame Rate) issues, but was able to later. His Alienware Area 51 PC was upgraded to a Mwave Custom PC in January 2020 due to the Area 51's failing hardware and it being unable to record the screen. According to the update video addressing said information, Phil said it could take up to 2 months for a new video as his new Mwave machine won't boot every second day and due to Hobart to Sydney and Sydney to Hobart shipping taking a long time (Sydney is where Mwave is located).

OSFirstTimer Advanced

In 2015, Philip started a series on his channel named "OSFirstTimer Advanced" where he has Diana complete more complex tasks on certain operating systems throughout history. Most videos now use the OSFirstTimer Advanced intro as opposed to the original OSFirstTimer intro that is only used in videos that follow the 5 basic tasks format.
