I've already chosen, I'm just waiting until W10 EoLs

suck my dumbass dick

asshole fucker cock dumbass

your mother the dog is the idiot of town

>>717439758 (OP)
Thanks, but whichever one I pick will be the "wrong distro". I'll just get W11 when I get a new computer, disable all telemetry and boat like I did with 10 and be done with it.

>>717439971
The ESL king is here.

whats the point of linux gaming distros instead of using the actually established ones with proper dev team and actual software support
like Fedora or Debian

>>717439758 (OP)
>its le safer guys
>its le faster guys
In theory yes, in reality mass migration will just lead to a flood of major security breaches
Also the vast majority of shit simply doesnt run and the devs dont care because no market share

MR. SCISSORS!

>>717440063
Lmao no, want something lightweight? Mint. (Still good for gaming regardless).
Wanna something mac os looking? Pop os or zorin, 8gb recommended.
Have a toaster from 2014? Xubuntu or lubuntu.
Wanna something that looks like windows but it's better, faster, more powerful and doesn't spy on you? Mint again.
Want le epin gaming os? Bazzite.
You are still free to change whenever.
Mint is lightweight but by no means not powerful and even on a high end machine is just perfect and can run games without any issue (unless the dev is a peculiar cunt, but still there are workarounds since even elden ring launched on linux.
Besides, the only games that don't run or linux are utter trash like valorant or fortnite.

>>717440454
We can start small.

>>717440228
Eh, I think gaming distros are more optimized, mint and pop os can run games swimmingly with 0 issues.

>>717440579
You are currently small, keep going like that and stop pestering people about it

>>717440728
Why contain it?

>>717440487
>free to change wherever
Like I said, I just want to set everything up and be done with it, not going window-shopping.
>workaround workaround exceptions compromise
I think I'll pass, but thanks for the qrd.

>>717439802
RIGHT

>>717439758 (OP)
i want to move but the operation to move is too much
>have to back up all my shit
>have to learn linux
>have to reinstall everything
>have to figure out what doesn't work on linux
>have to find out what I can use to replace what don't work on linux

>>717442685
You can dual boot and take as much time as you want Anon, you don't have to do everything in one day or week you know.
If you think Linux will be better for you, of course.

>>717442685
>>have to back up all my shit
You really really should be doing this no matter what OS.

>>717442685
You don't really have to learn much, you can be perfectly fine without ever touching the terminal, and even in that case, the terminal is there for you, unlike windows it's linux that serves you and not you that serves windows.
>>717443494
Yes he can try any distro he pleases in virtualbox.

>>717440063
>whichever one I pick will be the "wrong distro"
self-confidence AND skill issues

>i want all the dumbasses gaymer kids to invade the ecosystem, streamers, onlyfags and other scum that comes from videogames
no thanks.

>>717442685
you don't even have to learn terminal commands these days.

>>717443494
I've done some dualboots in the past and they were always a pain in the butt but maybe that was a skill issue on my part or things being more difficult back in the day

>>717443690
true but I meant it more like having to go through all the stuff that would be lost if I wiped my windows drive there's just so much and I've always forgotten something when I've reinstalled windows in the past

>>717443718
>>717443907
maybe linux has gotten more betterer than I thought
it's been like over 10 years since I've last touched anything linux

>>717444027
>maybe linux has gotten more betterer than I thought
>it's been like over 10 years since I've last touched anything linux
Linux these days is pretty much mac os easier than windows but without the cock cage, vaxx needle in the arm and plate full of stir-fried bugs (not kosher, sorry).
It's a better, faster, ligher, more powerful os than any of the competition and doesn't spy on you.

>>717443907
bullshit. i installed linux mint just a couple days ago and i was in the terminal constantly. startx, xrandr this, xrandr that, cinnamon --replace &, then installing pipewire, creating a script to force my monitors to STAY in mirror mode since it kept resetting for no reason after a couple hours, sudo shutdown now (UI wasn't working). just one problem after another.

for me its fedora + kde plasma its comfy and just works

>>717444632
>kde
>fedora
Kill yourself

>>717443494
dual boot is a joke, if the new OS is such a compromise that you constantly have to switch back you might as well not bother

>>717445340
I didn't say it was a permanent thing, when I was learning Linux I did that for a bit till I had everything setup and now I really only use Linux.

>>717445340
In his case it's because he's scared to switch to linux right away, I would never use windows not even in dual boot.

>>717440487
Want something that works? Windows.

>>717446482
KEK!

>>717446482
They all work dumbass. (except windows that's unstable as shit)

>>717445206
its the only distro + de combo that just works

Why would I wanna put a lil penguin fella in my PC?

>>717439758 (OP)
I'll switch to Linux when it allows me some control during installation of programs and doesn't just vomit files all over the system through a slop package manager

>>717440454
Fucking this.
The only reason that Linux is secure at the moment is because its market share is so incredibly low. But the moment market share gets to the point that every other person uses Linux, then its safety will drop dramatically as it becomes a viable target.
>B-But open sour-
That "security" is pretty much theoretical since Linux has only suffered like... three whole direct attacks in its entire existence? Also most people are HORRIBLE when it comes to reporting problems, not to mention the culture shift in open source development. The sudden flood of Linux-directed malware and exploits would be catastrophic for the developers of Linux and every single distro.

>>717448036
Yes, because cleanup utilities have never existed for windows/mac to help deal with the fact that the folder you pick is only 90% of the files it installs. The rest go to random static locations and never get cleaned up by the uninstaller. Windows at least thought about having overlay file systems where every shitty program could "write" to program files and Documents but each would only be able to see its own layer and couldn't overwrite each other's files. But they abandoned that, like every other good idea they had because it upset Adobe or some other overweight gorilla of a company.

>>717449187
yup windows is also very annoying with that, ideally I'd prefer everything to be in it's own directory

>>717444539
this sort of shit is what I'm afraid of

>>717440096
i died laughing for some reason

>>717448036
Stallman didn't you say you don't post on 4chan? What are you doing here?
