I actually did it. And I have abysmal knowledge of software but Linux is so fantastic. There isn't one thing that I can't do on it if it bothers me enough.
And even the one proprietary software that I do have to use (for work, plz don't ask) and comes only on Windows, works without flaw once I configure the WINE environment properly.
Tried Debian, Manjaro, Linux Mint, MX linux and loved them all. They are all fantastic. Finally settled on Mint (I know) because it is the right balance of stable and updated for me.
Fine fine...
I sometimes do. But I'd point a gun back and say, make the penguin run this software in a way that doesn't require a power user or take a newbie three fucking weeks.
I use Linux a lot and have about ten PCs running it so far, but I literally just installed Windows 10 on a shitbox that will very rarely be online because it was my best option for the software and respecting my time. I don't work in IT. I run a small nonprofit and I used to build and upgrade/repair PCs as a side gig.
I honest to god do not think it's any harder than Windows. You're just used to the quirks and skills necessary to deal with Windows shit.
It becomes apparent if you stop using Windows for a few years, when you get on it again the quirks hit back with the power of a thousand suns
Windows 10 on a shitbox!!!! You and I have very different definitions of that - lol. The 'shitboxes' I have (two of them) find it difficult to run even Windows 7, but Linux zooms on it like a breeze.
I know the frustration though. I sometimes use cracked software - mostly for learning new stuff as a hobby (CAD programming, designing etc) and come only on Windows, SOo....
But these days free and open source have also come up so beautifully. FreeCAD is like this whole new thing entirely, so are LibreOffice, Inkscape, GIMP, LibreCAD, Scribus, Blender (never used this one though). Using LibreOffice has made it next to impossible for me to use MSOffice. But yes I do need that one or two shitty proprietary things because, just because...
Eat your free soup.
What is this, Northern Irland?
i think this is how I'm getting ready to be with Minecraft vs luanti
Omg, I'd never heard of luanti... it looks freakin awesome!! Thank you!
