Too bad linux still blows as a daily driver machine you actually both consume and create with

I tried Pop OS because I was sick of how annoying microsoft conventions and windows 11 crap can be and it was awful, nothing Just Works even though thats what they billed this OS as. Feels like im using windows XP with less polish. You will almost certainly find that your software either isn't supported on linux or it performs FAR worse (as in more bugs and weird jank, lack of sub-feature support, etc). Fellow android users can relate to this- ios app is great, android version trash- many such cases

bash is god, linux for servers is still god, love using WSL 2 + Ubuntu to do all my software in. But to use for every day driving? hell no

You actually do need policing.

BTW real English has always been policed. That's what a lexicon is. And no, retard, English has not actually much changed in 400 years since the first lexicon was put in force. That's why you can just read Shakespeare without issue, you can't read earlier writing as easily.

>>105863247
There's no software worth using that doesn't work in Linux just fine.

We all know the only problem you actually had was you don't know anything.

>>105863247
i dont know what the hell people are talking about when they say their software is buggier on linux, genuinely
bitwig studio is less buggy and performs way better in terms of audio latency compared to when i used it on windows, all my games through steam work the exact same or sometimes better than when i played them on windows, and most desktop apps are just electron based slop anyway so its 1:1 same as windows except I use way way less RAM

im using nvidia and have had no issues, on wayland no less which was notorious in the past for being terrible because of nvidia being assholes
in fact id say nvidia drivers on modern gpus >>>> amd drivers on modern gpus at this point, DLSS works, raytracing works, VR works

>>105862753 (OP)
deadass pewds got me to switch to mint a month ago

>>105864887
Well, no. AMD has support for upscaling, ray tracing, and VR as well. Nvidia on Wayland doesn't have proper multi-monitor support and some programs still can't enable hardware accelerated video (and all of those programs are the open source ones).

>>105864925
>Nvidia on Wayland doesn't have proper multi-monitor support
what the hell does this mean im running two monitors right now and havent noticed any issues at all, if you mean multimonitor gaming that sounds retarded as fuck and i dont care anyway
>some programs still can't enable hardware accelerated video
i havent had this problem at all either, what programs are you talking about

>>105864862
And they continue on as if it matters or they have a point

once based pewds vocalizes support for having sex with anthro women is when i will swear my fealty to him

>>105864945
>what the hell does this mean im running two monitors right now and havent noticed any issues at all
You aren't running with full support. Yeah it should display, but for instance if your monitors have different refresh rates, then both display at the speed of the slowest refresh rate. AMD and Intel GPUs don't do this in Wayland.
>i havent had this problem at all either, what programs are you talking about
Well the biggest one is FFmpeg, because that includes any program that uses that as a dependency, but then there's also VLC and mpv. Youtube and the like can be hardware decoded because they use a different library.

>>105864980
literally what the fuck are you babbling about i have 2 1440p monitors one running at 240 and one at 144, mpv and vlc are both using my GPU when i run them, OBS is using my fucking gpu when i record, are you stuck in 2018?

>>105865005
Anon, OBS uses NVEC.

No, you don't have support for those features.

I mean he convinced me to do it
Only thing that ultimately stopped me is that i am a simfag and there aren't really any drivers that support my Thrustmaster T818 wheelbase.
I found some on github that supposedly maybe work since they share instructions with another model that is covered... maybe, I won't tear my setup apart just to find out they don't so I sit and wait for now.

>>105865030
>NVEC
its NVENC, and what is NVENC if not hardware acceleration? the apps i use support it, including open source software like OBS
also i just double checked and wow is running at 240hz and the other at 144hz, insane!! how!! what!! at the same time!?

>>105865092
>its NVENC, and what is NVENC if not hardware acceleration?
AMD and Intel support multiple libraries. Nvidia only works with their own. This is like saying "DLSS works so upscalers work" and then telling someone to get bent if they play a game that only offers FSR. And anon, your screens aren't running at separate refresh rates.

>>105865134
>your screens aren't running at separate refresh rates
youre retarded because I just set my second monitor to 60hz and my first is still at 240hz, impossible to misidentify from feel, ufo test also verifies they run at different rates at the same time

>>105865080
It's a fair bit of work to do this, but you might be able to get a Windows VM working in Linux and a monitor setup that isn't a hassle. The least difficult solution to your problem is to just have a spare drive you install Windows onto for that one game that won't work in Linux. I have a Win10 IoT install just to play Hearts of Iron 3.

>>105865165
Anon, X11 can do that, too, and there's no implementation of X11 that can do multi-monitor refresh rates. That's a 4:1 ratio, in that case it'd just render at 240hz and only give one monitor every fourth frame. That doesn't hold up when you're doing something with variable framerate.

>>105865184
so how is 1 monitor running at verified 240hz at the same time as the other is running verified at 144hz

>>105865212
It isn't. It might be running at 120hz instead of 144, or some other ratio. But either way, that doesn't hold up when variable refresh becomes an issue.

>>105864662
FL studio is worth using tho

>>105865222
but it literally is, i dont see 120hz i see 144hz when i test it, so i ask, what the fuck are you talking about

>>105865243
Do you have a high speed capture camera running on your monitor right now? Reported rates means nothing.

I tried Nobara, download speed was slow on Steam, performance on CS2 was worse than on Windows. I got back on Windows 10.

I changed from win7 to Linux because Python stopped supporting it and I didn't want to upgrade to win10. But the Linux environment made me see other languages and even though now I think that python is trash, I also know that windows can't be saved anymore so It all worked well in the end.

You mean Classic Theme, that is pretty old. Like 1996 old.

the problem with cinnamon is that its falling behind and still using GTK. if you're looking to play video games, KDE's wayland session is by far the most feature complete.

my audio interface just werks out the box and i can play guitar through my DAW with less latency than on windows, and the daw is actually more performant on linux and i can stack more fx than the windows version on the same hardware
meanwhile on windows i had to fiddle with installing the driver through an exe like a fucking wild animal, and then deal with the fact that however windows is managing its processes is completely fucking my audio experience with odd static whenever my cpu got under load

But it won't if they have newest hardware, not always that is.

This elitist attitude just goes to show that Linux users are out of touch. His experience is the exact same as mine. The issue is not even making the software work. It works after some hurdles.

I've been ramping up my homelabbing lately, all linux (mostly debian) and it's made me much more acquainted with the way things work on linux. Making the switch from windows 10 to linux as a daily driver on my desktop seems doable now.

I only used Linux because it was unpopular and unpopular makes you cool, but if it is popular I'd rather use Windows because it actually works

>>105867459
The reason the linux desktop is a meme is that it's always targeted at your mother, it's never targeted at the kind of guy who sorta-knows how to use regedit but not the terminal, e.g. a moderately skilled to skilled GUI user. that kind of user is suddenly trapped in a world where their options are a toy OS for your mom to use firefox, or an incomprehensible labyrinthine of over-abbreviated commands. want to tweak things a bit safe in the knowledge you can revert any changes at the click of a button? hahahahahahahaahahahaha sudo ack yourself.
