Best thing I did was to get a computer built with #Linux in mind. There's more of them besides Emporer Linux, System76, and Dell now. So depends on what you use the computer for too. There is proprietary vendor lock-in and SAAS that will only work on Windows or Macs. Tried Libre Office (Open Office back then) on Windows first and email was online. Easy to switch with just those. Video editing was the only thing stopping me until KDEnlive. Gaming is different, though. 4 comments
@sideshow_jim @cainmark Even as little as a year ago, gaming on Linux was a bigger problem than it is now. I have a Win10 partition on my main desktop that I used to use for gaming, but nowadays Proton and Wine work so well that I never use it even for that anymore. @PurpleJillybeans @sideshow_jim @cainmark yeah it's been a while since I simply could not play a game because I use Linux, then again I don't sample tons of games so I'm sure there's a few out there that would cause me problems. But as you said, i never even have to use Wine because Proton pretty much handles what I need it to. 🤷 @PurpleJillybeans @sideshow_jim @cainmark it’s shockingly good with Proton and Wine pushing the boundaries. It’s surprising how much better my Steamdeck plays most games better than my MacBook Pro with significantly more powerful hardware. |

@cainmark @PurpleJillybeans Steam is getting pretty good (although I only really play older stuff)
