I like GUI’s, but I prefer them simple and customizable, so I eventually want to switch away from KDE Plasma to just some window manager.

OpenBSD

I use Debian on my desktop PC and laptop and OpenBSD on the other laptop.

I am both a chad and schizo.

Edit: And no, not because of Gentoo.

OpenBSD is pretty cool.

On Linux you can indeed install old apps. You will just need to spend few hours doing so… or use Flatpak I guess.

I use Debian GNU/Linux ftw.

Like a month ago, someone wanted to connect my laptop to a projector in university class to show presentation. Little did I know that after connecting HDMI cable I will have a black screen on my laptop, lol.

If I knew my laptop is going to be used in such way I would prepare, but still…

Sure, but you still need to package Steam for all different “Linux distributions” (I put it in quotes, because I dislike the term) separately, or use things like Flatpak, which some people might be comfortable with, and others not really.

And if you go to page like ProtonDB, it shows that people have all different hardware and software configurations and it’s a big mess, because you are never sure if game will work or not, until you try (and maybe try different “hacks” to get it running). I have problems running ETS2 (Euro Truck Simulator 2) on Debian, even though it run on Windows fine, and let me say: I don’t have time for this shit.

I use Linux, because I am fed up with Windows, and I don’t really play games anymore (or at least modern titles) but if I replace my computer this year to get new build (will run Debian of course), I think I will just install either Bazzite or Windows 11 (or both) on the PC I am currently using, and let my brother play games there.

The problem with Linux is that you can’t target… Linux. Because there’s no single Linux.

I mean… when I was a teenager I literally used my DSi with it’s built-in Opera browser for porn… well, at least I was able to see some pictures, because I don’t think any video playback was possible.

My university forces us to use Microsoft products and I hate it.

The only good thing is that most MS products are available through web browser nowadays, but they have random quirks that make me bash my head against the desk.

I don’t know. I use KDE on Debian on my desktop, but I have set up Linux Mint Cinnamon on family laptop and it runs and looks fine.

What do you want to eat after universe ends?

I was using Ubuntu and Linux Mint more than a decade ago, then I switched to Debian, so I guess I skipped most of this curve, lol.

For me it’s like:

• PulseAudio - Bluetooth Audio doesn’t work
• PipeWire - Audio sometimes work, sometimes not. Reboot and figure it out.

Literally me. One time I was asked “What is happiness” or some other similar shit. It’s not like I think about stuff like that at regular basis, lol.

Kolorpaint is decent if you don’t care about layers.

How do you do any kind of work without having layers?

It is, but most modern software doesn’t work at all in Wine. I have 2 apps (Paint.net, and SketchUp Make 2017) which don’t have any real alternatives (or they suck) for Linux and they don’t work in Wine.

It’s Windows. You don’t need a license to run it. I mean you should have it, but it won’t suddenly stop working like in old days.

Ah, the zoomer distributions /s
