Reminder that Microsoft is trying to shift Windows to be entirely cloud based, so this can easily happen overnight without your consent. You don’t own your OS. Linux is the only way, unless you’re one of those strange BSD folks.
>b-but muh proprietary software and vidya gaymes!!!
Ik this is sarcastic but the video games issue is real regardless of Proton and its derivatives on Linux. Windows really is the best way to game right now
its fake
I switched to pop os recently and I’m never going back to Windows. It’s easier now than ever to switch to Linux, even for gamers. Steam, proton, and wine have made running your Windows apps and games in Linux so easy. You’d have to have a very specific use case to justify staying with Windows now.
Here’s a fun one: I own two video capture devices, an Elgato HD 60 S and an Avermedia LiveGamer Portable 2. Both do not work in Linux. I found a simple USB HDMI capture device that works in Linux and cost a fraction of what thosmother overhyped ones cost me. It works way better than they ever did. That was one of my last adjustments. I can still stream my Switch and PS5 on Twitch, no problem.
That’s a pretty niche use case and it was easy.
I’ve never heard of microsoft pluton- that’s why I wasnt talking about it
Must suck to be a Windows User
Common Microsoft L
Microsoft can’t be bothered to make a single, unified control panel but they have resources to work on shit like this.
Because Windows is known to be malicious spyware, and you should consider not tolerating it any longer.
