most likely but I’m super lazy with my pc unless I’m having hyperfocus going, so I don’t know

aur is the only thing I miss. I do like fedora with i3 very much but rpm can be pain in the ass sometimes

why would you need anymore knowledge with fedora than with mint or popos? it has simple and easy to use installer, and everything just works.

nah propiertary, sometimes happens randomly and gnome

linux can have some pretty weird quirks though. (don’t get me wrong I’ve been dailydriving linux for several years and I’m not going to use windows unless I’m forced)

one time I was about to do presentation, I has multiple files and windows in order to present the whole program we had developed, some powerpoint, demo, and the source code.

then came my time to do the presentation and I plugged in the hdmi cable and my fucking account just logged out. dunno if the session crashed or something, but I had to quickly scramble everything back since all my apps were closed lol.

I do have older quadro nvidia though

or musX

you literally have to run installation script or follow instructions from arch wiki. slap some de to it and you’re good. doesn’t take a smart person to do.

to properly maintain it for longer periods forever though, takes some more skill.

huh, my duckduckgo did piss in my eye yesterday so to speak, don’t know why I said that but I didn’t get my search result is what I meant

wow I have never heard people being this ignorant. that sounds funnt, and a bit sad. too bad I have hp and not linux

my girlfriends like fedora gnome too. I do all the technical stuff anyway so she really doesn’t have know to know that much about the os she uses

I take it as patriotic america first -slogan. the woman is some patriotic nutjob who has her podcast called truth uncensored of something like that so it’s pretty safe to assume she is one of those christian maga idiots who would definetly lose their shit for seeing “sacrifise child” in their tv

I mean she does have a t-shirt that says “white american privilege”

hope that answers to your question

apparently wsl 2 enabled option to run gui apps too so I would imagine desktop or wm would work too, but I don’t think it would be possible to enable super key for those without windows registering it too. this is just my speculation though. but traditionally people use it to run linux cli applications etc.

at least my classmates have been using it for classes that require usage of linux. I have never touched it myself since I converted to the church of linux before wsl was a thing

it is quite literally a link to howtogeek article about how to fix broken packages.

I think you answered to the wrong comment

yeah I definetly know what you mean. with wine it definetly was pain in the ass to make the configuration by yourself to every game. luckily we now have proton doing excellent work for that. and if it’s not a steam game we have lutris doing excellent work for that with their install scripts.

we even have glorius eggroll releasing wine-ge and proton-ge where they apply plenty of game specific patches

in steam I feel like maybe 2 out of 10 gold rated games have some little issues, and even then I just have to copy paste launch comand from proton db, no need to fiddle around too much

my point was still originally that in most cases it’s just change of a workflow. even if something needs a tinkering at first time after thst you know how to do it and it’s not a chore anymore. I would definetly feel thst even if in windows thinf just work it would be pain in the ass for me to do the stuff in windows way because I’m used to linux way.

but also I have very different use cases than you, since I’m a programmer that does 3D modeling as a hobby on blender, and I don’t play competitive games. so for me the linux is “everything just works” os, since if I had any problems at start when I didn’t known how to do something, that’s not most certainly the case anymore

nah it’s still good. I do prefer fedora myself though, but that’s just a preference

in my experience gold games work almost alwaus just fine. I don’t expect platinum rating on a lot of games since a lot of modern games are just as unstable on windows as they are on linux. In my opinion the meaning of gold rating has changed a lot. 2010s with wine gold used to have quite a lot of tinkering but with proton nowadays it’s usually either just fine or solved with 1 or 2 launch commands copy pasted from protondb. some games have even slightly better performance on linux with the right hardware.

sorry for starting the whole argument but I also don’t know what kind of answers you expected when you came to linux community trash talking linux with things that a lot of linux users don’t agree with. your use cases happens to be one of the worst though on linux.

but the fact that you cant use professional cad software and play games that are specifically made impossible to play on linux don’t mean that you can’t do anything but use office and browser and I still do think that statement is stupid as hell.

but sorry again for getting so heated, I’m going to stop arguing now since neither of us are going to change their minds and this contributes absolutely nothing

lmao. the fact that kernel-level anti cheat multiplayers don’t work don’t work on linux don’t mean you can’t game on linux or that it is bad experience. a lot of people don’t play those and they are mostly put on competitive game. steam has literslly brought thousands of games to linux in just a few years

out of 1000 top games on steam 77% has either platinum or gold rating in terms of woking. I’m sorry linux isn’t viable for gaming?

and we literally have linux gaming handheld, steam deck. which has over 4000 games with steam verified status and something like 14000 gold or platinum status games

edit: sorry didn’t notice the “at least for me” part which makes your comment valid if you happen to play those kernel anticheat games
