#KDE is not only extremely newbie-friendly, it’s also awesome for Linux veterans (Me, using Linux since the 90s, started with fvwm2 as window manager).

Install both! That way you can play all the games you want, if you’re a nerd like me, but you can move the other everyday stuff to Linux!

More games are coming to Linux, it’ll be a while for this process to complete.

Nowadays, Its actually harder to find a game that flat out won’t work. Thanks to Proton, the only games that you can’t play on linux are ones that the developer has specifically forbidden from working on linux via whatever AC they use.

That’s what I did well over 20 years ago. Never looked back.

I don’t have personal experience with games on Linux but from what I’m hearing, most games should now work the same on Linux as on windows

Linux Mint is massively less frustrating to use than Windows 10 or 11

Fedora here, been running Baldur’s Gate 3 no problem using proton. Even with a 2600.

No reason to go back to windows knowing I can run pretty much anything through steam.

Microsoft: advertises to increase profits like a good capitalist

People: “Is this communism?”

Advertising on a product I own is not conducive with me owning the product, but with me renting it. It’s not communism, but it is me not owning something I thought I own.

Renting and subscription services are very much capitalism.

There’s a reason commies hate landlords.

Socialism is when a corporation does stuff.

And it’s more socialism the more stuff it does.

And if it does a whole load of stuff, that’s communism.

Especially if the stuff it does is ads. The bullshitter the job the government does, the more communism it is!

If there’s one thing communists love it’s advertising. In fact Don Draper is a socialist icon alongside Stalin and Coco Chanel.

They also love big corporations, like Microsoft

It’s been downhill since Windows 7. I think this will be my last Windows PC.

I just don’t feel safe with Windows that next time I boot up there won’t be some fresh horror I didn’t ask for and have to go research how to put back in the bottle.

It’s like having your computer pre-rooted with malware.

Jumping between Mac and Windows I keep accidentally awakening Cortana when I try to copy and paste. Now that god awful, universally reviled feature if finally getting deprecated but it still brings up the damn window/modal/pice-of-shit just to tell me that it’s gone. If you want to be gone, then go! Don’t make a fuss telling me about it. Just go. No one wanted you in the 1st place. Fuck.

This comment has really a really good vibe to it. Like, if comments were essential oils, and if I was a sucker, I’d bottle this comment.

Come join the fight against evil, join those who wish to give you control over the shit you own, go ahead and load https://www.fedoraproject.org/ onto a USB and try it out. Most software either has excellent alternatives, or works fine under Wine!

That’s exactly what it is. Defender is removing PUPs (potentially unwanted programs), but only those unwanted by Microsoft, while Windows is installing unwanted programs left and right. Windows is legitimately acting like malware. Not even a joke.

I’m curious as to how much something like shutup10 helps with that. I was always tempted, but never tried it. I barely touched windows these past few years anyways.
