Microsoft claims "2026 is the moment" for AI PCs, but its essay-length beginner explanation only creates more confusion — Is it any wonder adoption is slow? (www.windowscentral.com)

Uh... My journey actually started with Nobara after researching. But I wanted to try hyprland, so switched to Arch.

One of the things I like about Arch is the yay util designed to build packages basically straight from GitHub, and provide an easy way to upgrade them.

I will also go ahead and say that jumping straight to Arch is a bad idea. I would look at Ubuntu or Fedora first. Arch pushes updates really quickly and it can occasionally cause issues.

Thanks for you answer. I'm a novice concerning linux. I wish too leave microsoft but i'm a bit afraid of breaking my computer.

So far i'm hesitating between mint and pop!_os in dual boot

[–] one_knight_scripting@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Honestly, I would say either of those are good options to start with. I sincerely doubt fully breaking the PC. Maybe research Linux for your GPU, you may have multiple options. It may be worth a second hard drive so you can easily swap back and forth until you are fully comfortable. Dual booting on the same HDD is also possible, but more annoying.

Personal issue I ran into: motherboard customization on my big gamer doesn't work without Windows... Not a huge deal, but my Rainbow LED runs its animation in reverse. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Good idea ! I will install it on an external HDD (I have a laptop), so if there is any problem my computer will still be safe. And once i'll will be use to it (in 6 months or a year maybe) I can fully install in in place of Windows ! It's a great advice ! Thank you !!!

are you looking at the newer version of pop os? It's still in beta, I think you would have a better experience with mint.

[–] bourrelier@jlai.lu 1 points 2 hours ago

I guess I am aiming at a stable version in order to prevent difficulties
