Do you currently use Linux, or would you consider giving Linux a shot? - eviltoast

I get the feeling that Lemmy has a relatively higher concentration of Linux users. I’m preparing to move over to Linux when I build my new computer. I already put Linux Mint Cinnamon edition on one of my old laptops and I like it quite a bit. I figure that since I’ve been wanting to switch over for years, I should just do it. The games were the thing holding me back, and Proton seems to have taken care of that(I don’t really play multiplayer games that require anticheat… I’m a singleplayer kind of girl).

For me, anyway, I want to switch because Windows has been creeping me out with its telemetry. Windows 11 looks lousy, and I’d have to jump through some hoops to get my old hardware on 11, anyway.

    Or you can wait till the next time you’re buying a new laptop/desktop and buy one from Systems76:

    https://system76.com/

    They come with Pop!OS pre-installed, and everything (including drivers) will just work like you’d expect in Windows.
