If only there was another OS you could use instead!
If only that other OS had keyboards tailored for it...
We could have, I don't know, Compose, Super, Meta, instead of things like Menu that serves no purpose whatsoever.
My Menu key just lost it's virginity because of this comment.
My scroll-lock key lost its virginity a few days ago, when I realized, I could use it for the Compose-key.
I remapped it for Yakuake, pretty handy for plasma.
Menu key serves a purpose when you need to access a context menu without a mouse to right click with.
Granted, I've needed that maybe a grand total of three times over the course of nearly three decades of computer use. But I don't know how you access that menu otherwise. It's a nice bit of redundancy from a company that doesn't often think of that.
Meme answer: maybe you shouldn't have chosen Haiku OS.
Serious answer: I always advocate for everyone to use the OS that fits their use case.
What I want and need from an OS, Windows simply doesn't offer but Linux does. So that's what I use.
I'd never tell anyone that Linux is perfect, or that you should use it, or something like that. I'm just glad it exists because I need it, it's so much better for my use case I can hardly believe it's free, and it gets better every year.
OK
I recommend cross-posting that support post to a general Linux support community. That doesn't sound to me like it's specific to Fedora.
The cross-section of Lemmy users who use OBS and also specifically Fedora, that just won't be incredibly huge...
I know Nobara Project was aimed at gamers/streamers, maybe check that out?
Introducing you to our almighty penguin... LINUX
