Already done! My wife’s former Win10 laptop, which was bogging down ludicrously, has been humming along on Ubuntu for months. I use it to run my in-person D&D sessions. Touchpad is a little iffy, probably crudded up inside, so I just added a mouse. Could try to clean it out but I like a mouse better anyway.
Yep Linux is the easiest way to get games :) don’t even need to worry about viruses.
I personally wouldn’t go OpenSUSE
Linux mint all the way
How is Wayland on Cinnamon?
Nah, I like playing games
Hahaha what a generic thing to say!
It’s okay to be generic, it’s how I relax
Me too. Fortunately, Linux can play plenty of games. I’ve put hundreds of hours into each of Skyrim, Cyberpunk, Path of Exile and countless other games
It can’t play every single thing, but I’m cool with that.
I’m not, I want to relax. Debugging is a different hobby
Plenty of distros are set and forget and there’s no debugging necessary. Bazzite for example. No coding, no CLI.
Steam Deck, with Steam OS is a great example. Bazzite OS, Fedora, etc.
Linux today is not the same as it was years ago. If you think otherwise, a video on YouTube demoing something like Bazzite would be a great demo. Bazzite and other atomic distros like Aurora are fort Knox.
I have a friend who still games on windows 11 and he has headaches playing things too, like freezes, CTDs, audio issues, having to reboot, etc. A lot of that comes with PC gaming and isn’t just a Linux thing.
You can stick to Windows but do it on the basis of what-is, not what-was. Valve and other companies in the Linux community have invested a lot of money and resources getting things to great shape, and they’re continuing to do so
I might try again later, last year tried it and it was still a mess
Not every distro is a debug fest. But I see you are set in your idea of Linux.
I have linux as a daily driver. I think it’s great as a server os. But I find it too unreliable for a desktop system
