Windows 95 lockups drove me to linux. Options are good.

My year was 2007. I stopped caring about the rest of the world following me by about 2015. 17 years since I touched Windows without being paid to do so. feelsgoodman.jpg

2023 was officially the year of the Linux laptop for me. The year of the linux desktop for myself may or may not be this year.

Same here. After several false starts over the last 30 years, 2023 was the year of the Linux laptop and server cluster for me. I’ve put in the work now and I am 100% sure that I’m never going back to Windows for those machines. I still have a fancy new Windows gaming machine though. I don’t want to switch it to Linux because it’s an Intel/Nvidia machine with three screens and a bunch of peripherals. Whoops!

id reckon youd have to wait for steam machines to have a modern reboot, and I dont think valve wants to push that yet till the majority of popular online miltiplayer games run on linux (the major hurdle linux has for gaming) as a home console replacement user is far more likely to also delve into online multiplayer over the handheld on the go player.
