Comment on Windows 12 release date in 2026 possible, with AI features that may force CPU upgrades
Bytemeister@lemmy.world 2 days agoI went from 10 to Mint back in January.
Pretty easy switchover. Very few issues. As a lifelong Windows user, installing apps, keeping everything updated and backed up could not be easier. Only issue I ran into during install was my WiFi device would not show up. Had to turn off fast boot and then power cycle the system and literally pull the plug to completely reset the adapter. Other than that, everything worked perfectly “out of the box”. No fucked up driver install process. No hour long updates. It literally worked perfectly within minutes. All the shit I went through with every single Windows install honestly feels like a cruel fucking joke right now when I type it out.

I had some issues with my Bluetooth/wifi but I somehow got it to work. Modding is a bit of a bitch though, I have to run Vortex through steam tinker and it is less than optimal even if it works.

Fortunately, Nexus has posted that they’re intending to support Linux more in the coming future.

Hopefully it comes soon. The current state of Linux modding is mixed at best.

I only have a desktop right now, but I’m leaning towards buying an actual PC for gaming and video editing, keeping that on Windows just for simplicity’s sake, then switching my desktop to Linux and using that for all non-gaming and non-editing purposes.

I’m using ModOrganizer 2, and it seems to work fine, but you need a separate installation for every game.
