I’m on Garuda, every game I have tried has worked great, sometimes I just have to choose a different proton version with an easy pull down menu. The only game I have given up is Destiny 2, because they say they will ban anyone on Linux because of their anti cheat.

I use Garuda, you just install the Nvidia version and the updater handles updates automatically whenever you run it.

Easy peasy.

Xfce user, here to represent!

I love it and haven’t had any trouble. Try it out!

People always talk about the learning curve and compromises, but Linux is finally in the “shit just works” stage, so it’s not much different than the Mac/PC decision people make every day.

Heck, in a lot of ways it is more similar to Windows than Mac is, so it should be an easier decision. For some reason though, everyone still treats it like… Well… It would be like treating Windows like you still have to know DOS.

That’s just not true anymore.

I dunno, I use Garuda and it’s an Arch distro. It’s been super user friendly and I’ve only had to learn console stuff when I wanted to mess with stuff most casual users wouldn’t be bothered with.

And maybe you would say, “well that’s not really representative of a normal Arch install” but isn’t that the point of different distros? That anyone can build on functionality to do something like make Arch more user friendly?

I hear you, but what if maybe, I know this is crazy, the government only took from the people but didn’t actually provide any services to them. It could be soooo profitable!

Bazzite was my first and was great and easy. If you don’t like the immutable aspect, check out Garuda.

Roboburbilbear!

Bazzite was my first first into Linux. I loved it overall, the thing that eventually made me switch was that the login screen background was locked behind immutability. It’s stupid, but matters to me. I’m on Garuda now and it has been great too.

Look for kindness. Look for a group trying to build something for others, not just tear something down or personal gain.

I tried Bazzite as my first try with Linux for a while and liked it; it was super easy. I didn’t like that the immutability went so far as to lock me out of some parts of the OS that I thought should be open, like lock screen customization.

Now I am on Garuda Arch and it has been really easy too.

Jokes on you Microsoft, I recently ditched windows.

Married, happy, and doing financially ok (house paid off but no real savings). Life would have been a lot harder with kids.

How to debone a chicken:
First, remove the orgasms from inside the body cavity and set side.
Wash and dry the children.
Place the chicken in the rectum of a live cow to tenderize for three hours.
Turn the cow inside out and remove the chicken.
Coat the chicken in a thin brine of jet fuel and dust with flour.
Tie the legs of the chicken to a doorknob with a line of dental floss and save for later.
Ignite the chicken and catch it in a 2 quart greased pan at 425 degrees.
The bones will slide out easily.

Hey guys, this right here is a super valuable point to address and really strikes straight to the heart of the ability of a system like this to give the illusion of choice. People absolutely will still think, despite this, they are still in control and we need to address it not dismiss it.

I’m undoing the downvote on this comment, it absolutely is a big part of the conversation, even if you think it’s naive.

I’m just starting out with Bazzite right now. Still awkward, but pretty painless, and all the gaming stuff like proton is already configured and baked in. I still need to figure out how to get stuff done though.

Because everyone is switching from a custom ui to a css standard so they can have a web app that is also a desktop app.

To sum up, your app became a web page.

There are no roles, only consequences. The real question here is what are the consequences, and we can’t know that.

I think the long stripey socks?

We had comments there too, maybe try an interpretive dance to spice things up?
