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.
how do you run it? with wine? does it run good ?
The daw/music software? Just wine. used wine to install the app & vst plugins, then just using the “start menu” shortcut for the app to run it. I did have to use winetricks to install dxvk on the prefix (without it, some plugin ui’s did not work properly), but after that it works fine.
as for “does it run good” - well enough for me. Some of the guitar/bass amps and instruments I use seem to use noticeably more cpu than on windows
i never play any online games only pirated ones. i do have fitgirl call of duty tho,would that work?
would you recommend i get linux?
I don’t know, I don’t play cod. See the links from previous replies for that.
as for should you get linux, only you can answer that once you’ve done the research
i suppose i can try running it there. i think it should work bec it would be striped of drm
Probably. I run Fitgirl GTA V with wine
Wine works well for me on Manjaro. Once it’s installed and run for the first time, it’s been seamless. I think every now and then you might find a game that requires an additional patch to run.
You’re running games through wine and not Proton?
