Linus Tech Tips Discussion

 The Verge Commentary - After three months on Linux, I don’t miss Windows at all Summary The Verge Nathan Edwards describes this experience running CachyOS on this Home Desktop computer full time. And his experience has been mostly positive with some caveats along the way.   Quotes Quote In January I finally made good on my threat/promise to install Linux on my desktop. I wanted to see how far I could get using a Linux PC as my main computer without doing a bunch of research beforehand or troubleshooting afterwards. Since then I have booted into Windows exactly twice: once to scan a multipage document that wasn’t scanning right in Linux, and once to print a photo for my kids’ school on extremely short notice. There’s a reason it’s taken me three months to write the next installment in my Linux diary: nothing has gone horribly wrong.   My thoughts  So I currently operating two laptops, and old HP Probook 430 G1 that is running Linux Mint (which I'm currently using while typing this) the other laptop running Windows 11. I also have 3 desktops 2 that aren't my primary systems running Mint and my main desktop/Gaming system running Windows 11. I'm currently working on duel booting my Windows 11 laptop to have both linux and windows on it to eliminate this old Probook. But for basic functions like surfing the Web, typing emails, etc.. the experience is good, and I have been using the Linux laptop more than the Window one as of late. Now I can't fully remove Window as an option, there are just somethings Windows makes simpler and less of an hassle like gaming. The one Linux Desktop system is setup for gaming, so I might play with the gaming part of linux a bit more. But I would like to see more gaming developers and software developers to spend time to create their software to work on Linux without the need of using emulators of some sort.   Sources https://www.theverge.com/tech/918797/switched-to-linux-dont-miss-windows
