I really hope the whole shift away from American products will convince more software and game developers to provide native support for Linux. I am approaching the fence.

They give me more and more reasons to stay on W10 until I give up games and move to Linux permanently.

I'll miss my TCMD scripting, though. But besides that and gaming, most of what I do nowadays is cross-platform.

Same here.

Game performance on Linux isn't always the best. So I'll keep a Win10 around.

Are Linux ports of games so hard to do? Genuine question. I am not a games dev.

Uh

Who's ready to talk Linux

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm liking Linux Mint and Kubuntu personally.

Especially Kubuntu for my main desktop PC, Linux Mint for my little clunker PC I use to run my 3D printers.

This forced account shit is infuriating. I’d see students with computers that cannot get to government-provided education sites because they are forced to sign up with a Microsoft account to use their PC, which forced them to setup a child account because of their age and therefore be under a parent account, which means the child account can only use Edge and can only go to whitelisted websites, which blocks some government education sites unless the parent account allows it through which they can’t until the student goes home.

I'm so glad I finally ditched that shit for good

You can still skip it with MicroWin and also Rufus. I've tested it just recently.
