Reading that whole page, holy shit, it's like a twelve year old wrote it trying to sound very smart while also attempting to divert blame and falsify agenda. If this ain't a Russian psyop, nothing is.

I have a HP printer that works perfectly fine on Linux. But it's from 2015.

Silent movies with Chaplin?

Why would anyone use that browser though? Besides all the rounds of shit it went through, the CEO seems like a nutcase. First he does anti-lgbt political donations, not just once, and has to resign from Mozilla among outrage after only 21 days as the CEO. Then he tweets uninformed shit about covid and has his staff remove criticism on reddit. Sounds like a real champ.

Datcord is just a Firefox based wrapper for Discord, instead of electron (which the Discord thick client uses). But you could just use a flatpak discord probably.

I'm using sheets provided by my GOOG work account already. Was just asking in case someone absolutely needs to have the thick client of Excel.

I think even web-Excel works well enough. I've used it recently through a sub provided by my university on my Mint laptop via Firefox.

How well does Excel run under Linux?

I just feel like a fool for buying win10 and then upgrading to the Pro license a couple years back for something like $300 in total, only to keep getting completely irrelevant ads shoved down my throat. Buy Xbox game pass (never cared about it), MS365 subscription (I already had it, why do I get ads for it?), One Drive (I already had this as well), etc. And I've been with MS since DOS days and then the whole shebang as well. It's just unacceptable to me.

I've also been dragging along data from one old hdd to the next as I kept upgrading, with some files still being retained from the 90s. I have a lot of demo scene material and what not, and one day when exploring the directories, I've noticed that a lot of them had now missing executables. Defender removed them without as much as a warning. Rummaging through some other directories, I've noticed that some of my late father's files are gone from his personal directory (from when we shared my PC on occasion). It included some silly stuff like the Terrorists' Handbook. But wait, there's more.

Mainly for me it's compatibility. Discord, MW3, networking between my main PC and HTPC. Online gaming with friends. Full steam support.

These just work under Linux perfectly fine. Except for maybe MW3. The fotm shooter sponsored by the genocidal US army. But not sure what you even mean by full Steam support. Steam IS Linux. And I'm using Datcord instead of Discord, to avoid electronJS (Chromium).

I've only switched end of August, after trialing another distro on a laptop during the summer to see if I can do studies and work stuff on it (no gaming). Everything worked there out of box. Once I had axed my C$300 copy of windows from my main PC (lol sunk cost fallacy) my distro of choice took a bit more time to set up, but I haven't had this much fun with tinkering on something since the 90s. And if something doesn't want to work right away, the answer is usually one search or LLM prompt away. I understand now why "man" is not even included in a lot of distros by default nowadays.

I really like deadbeef, coming from fb2k as well. Someone recommended it to me two weeks ago, and I've immediately recognized the similarities.

Foobar's Dev should have just taken their project open source imo. Although I suspect winamp's lawyers would have jumped on that.

What did you learn about Windows that makes your knowledge about it so in depth that you can't separate from it any longer?

Same in Hungarian, narancs.
