im currently using windows 11 on msi gf63 laptop. if i used linux i would use ubuntu,bec it seems like the easiest thing.
i game,i use brave browser,i pirate games and software. i also like that my hoarded pirated binaries of games and software will work even years later on windows without too much effort.
i use an hp printer,and need to be able to use it on linux.
i expect to be able to use the laptop and not think about the os too much,meaning i wont distro hop or try to customize it too much. im fine with the terminal,my goal of using linux is being far from malware.
You try it and see if it fits you. This is not a religion. You use what works for you.
Same with religions actually.
Nobody’s ever going to start a war in the middle east to murder a bunch of people because they think that’ll make Tux return.
But you use what works for you.
Tell that to arch evangelists
i did try it its nice. i just didnt use it long enough to know if i would lose anything. so can you tell me?
You are the only one who can answer that. Things will change, but if you qualify that as a loss that’s up to you.
In my experience with Linux, where there is a will there is a way. If you want something to run badly enough it will simply work.
Personally I still play Dark Souls and Dark Souls 3 a lot, including mods, randomizer etc. I’ve even used cheat engine on those, for example to spawn items at the start of the game to do challenge runs. That’s old software and primarily designed for Windows, it runs just fine on Linux tho.
