Comment on Windows 11 could actually become the same kind of mistake Sony made with the PS3

  Linux has close to the best support for games possible without support from the game developers.

  Other windows software usually isn’t quite as good in my experience, but still better than non-native software on any other operating system.

  Never used a DAW, so I can’t say anything about that.

  I wish Linux had better support for games, DAWS (my job) and other software.

  Do you have any examples or details so we can understand your point better?

    It runs FL studio and Ableton like complete ass we well as any plugin I need. Has terrible Nvidia support and even worse Intel support.

      FL studio and Ableton through WINE, I presume? That’s really the responsibility of the FL studio and Ableton developers, not Linux. I got Bitwig specifically because it supports Linux natively, and I hear it does it well (I haven’t tried it on Linux yet). From what I understand, the situation with Nvidia is also largely on Nvidia’s camp, although some distributions have gone above and beyond to get their GPUs to work well from the get go, like Pop OS, which I also just installed recently. No idea about Intel, but I thought I had heard that their support (and AMD’s) for Linux was much better than Nvidia’s.

        I’m not complaining about Linux. But the lack of support that companies have for it. Seems to be a lack of interpretation somewhere. I have no real problem with Linux other than it mostly require major googling of how terminal works. Windows and even Mac are just simple to use and everything works.

        I have used bitwig before too, but I’ve been using FL for almost 20+ years now. I’m not going to change my entire system and knowledge just because a community hates it when someone says windows is easier to use lmao.
