I’ve been almost-ready to ditch Windows for years. Now’s the time.

My new neighbor is an old-school nerd. He hosts install parties at our local leftist third space.
He’s going to help me switch to… not sure yet. Probably Mint. I can’t wait. It feels as good as never giving a cent to Amazon, Uber, and streaming services.

Yay.

    Someone else responded that does some sim racing. It has limits, but it seems it’s game specific and largely by dev choice. More confidence than I expected, but I have liked at literally nothing for the process yet. Free weekend though, so hopefully 48 hours is enough lol

      Having never even looked at Linux before I had it up and running on my old MacBook in less than an hour! Maybe another two of playing with settings (mostly for fun), and now it’s just my computer! I’m sure it’ll take extra time to get the things you want to work to go if they’re unusual, or maybe as you point out you may need to keep a windows partition for that.
