Took me good 10 seconds to decipher this

Different, I would say. Best home vids? PH. More fetishes? Xvideos.

Home video stuff is arguably the best!

Often filmed with nothing but desire to share the joy. Vivid, real, as opposed to the carefully curated studio plastic, or OF crap where people have it for the money, and with all the ethical and other concerns about it.

But I know there are always two sides to look at the issue. Studio production is obviously more perfected, and that's what many like

As long as they want sexual connection as well, they technically are (Incel = involuntarily celibate)

But the way incel culture manifested itself, incels began being associated with angry envious misogynistic young men, which is not great and certainly not a good mental framework for someone who just wants intimacy

There are many ways people can start thinking of themselves as undesirable, unwanted, perpetually lonely, and we need to provide some social example for them to begin realizing flaws in their mentality, not reinforcing them.

We should also combat the notion that relationships are everywhere and easy to find, and make sure to note many, many cases of people finding their first true love way after 30, 50 or even 70. It's just never too late, and it's not a race in the slightest.

Witg the diversity of attractions, what one may find undesirable may be what the other desperately seeks.

I mean, you lose nothing for trying. Windows will still be on your machine if you dual boot or use live image.

Some use cases may force the user to stay with Windows. Most won't.

Going Debian is fully valid too! And more generally, whatever distro works for you is the best. There's a good reason there are so many.

Damn, 5 kids...you're a hero lol

Fedora sure is mature as well, but Bazzite in particular is immutable, which adds a level of complexity you may not be ready for. Debian can be used as a gaming distro, at least for as long as you're not using the latest and greatest hardware.

Constant updates are pretty much a feature of all distros close to the bleeding edge. That's what makes them bleeding edge to begin with. With Debian, you'll be forgiven to forget updates even exist.

Last time I checked there were two, and realistically only piefed.social had any userbase. Is it not relevant anymore?

Piefed is very centralized as of now, and while it is small overall, we'll see how it goes with the new instances.

Used Debian, Manjaro, Mint (regular Ubuntu version), Fedora as a daily driver on PC; Debian, Ubuntu and a bit of Arch on servers.

Currently running Fedora. Debian is good, but I appreciate being closer to the bleeding edge, and while Flatpaks help bridge the gap, they also make more up-to-date distros remain stable, and you wouldn't use Flatpaks for system packages which also matter.

Previously ran Manjaro - nice premise, but the team does not have the capacity to pull it off just stable and good enough. It does tend to break after a while. I still wish their team all the best and hope it will one day become my home again - but not before they sort their mess.

Arch on desktops is too much of a "debloated" experience for me - I don't enjoy having to build my system from scratch, even though I know how. Also, the risk of updates borking the system is too high, and I'm not red-eyed enough to read all update notes. On experimental servers with just a few packages, though, it can be useful.

Mint was actually quite buggy for me too, despite folks generally insisting on stability as one of its selling points. Also, they are strong on promoting Cinnamon, and I'm a KDE fanboy (and a bit of a Gnome enjoyer).

Fedora caused me problems only once, and that is when I used universal Linux package to install proprietary NVidia drivers (use the package from Fedora repos to avoid my mistakes!). Other than that, and through several major updates, it works like a charm. It also automatically saves system images while updating, and you can easily load any. Stability-wise, it was same as Debian to me.

Yeah, I would love to know how many people genuinely want to ride a Ferrari in this case, and how many are willing to live a life from the magazine cover, only to be disappointed if they ever get there.

2,5 years in, not looking back.

To be fair, some multiplayer titles (Fortnite, Valorant, recently Apex Legends, Splitgate 2) do not work due to anticheat being very Windows-specific, but other than that, I have not encountered any issues.

Currently playing World of Warcraft, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, Minecraft, Gunfire Reborn, Endless Space 2, recently played Split Fiction, Cyberpunk 2077, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, TES V Skyrim, Elite Dangerous, Warframe, Euro Truck Simulator 2, Cycle Frontier, Once Human, a bit of Star Citizen - each and every one of them played perfectly well.

I haven't noticed issues in any singleplayer/co-op/MMO games I've tried. For multiplayer shooters, it gets worse. All Valve games are alright (of course), and some others are too. Apex Legends is a biggest loss, they've recently decided to arbitrarily drop all Linux support, despite working flawlessly in the past.

Lemmy.today offers smooth Lemmy experience without defederations. Loving it, using for well over a year.
