    Now of course there are still issues with linux, in a specific case scenario some issues do occur but over my time using linux desktop on multiple distro's on atleast 5 different computers that range from a amd athlon 4 laptop, desktop intel cpu from 2013, a 2015 intel laptop with a intergrated gpu, ryzen 3700x + rtx 2060, and my main currently a 3700x + rx 6700, all work as intended under linux :P

    I got myself a new laptop and got exposed to Win11 for the first time, and it is honestly an awful experience. Multiple ads during install/update, bad AI, a horribly designed dock, MASSIVELY intrusive meddling with the system at a BIOS/UEFI level.
    How is this happening again? I thought the EU smacked them down about shit like this some time ago. With the new Apple lawsuits, it might be time to remind them what is what.

    I discovered Arch because that’s what Steam Deck’s distro is based on. Never heard of it. Was comical trying to set it up for the first time, but I learned a lot more than I did with Ubuntu or Fedora. Been using Linux for more than a year and I’m not going back.

      If we're talking bugs.
      Every windows laptop I ever owned, (I still use one now), has a tenuous relationship with wifi.
      You boot it, it works fine, eventually after 1 hour or 8 hours it varies, the wifi will stop working briefly and it will reconnect and it might work or it might not.
      At that point the only fix for the wifi is a reboot. I never understood why macs gets better wifi than windows machines.

    Thanks, man, great content. I left Windows for Linux Mint in 2020, the year Microsoft ceased support for Windows 7. I'd been a Windows user since Windows 95, but I'll never go back. Linux is awesome.

    Is the version of Windows in the US worse than in the EU?
    Aside from the initial installation, Windows hardly ever interrupts me.
    When I hear others complain about being bombarded with ads and messages constantly, it seems like the US version of Windows is much worsen
    Apart from browsing, my main use for a PC is playing video games. While it's great that I can customize my Linux distribution, it doesn't matter much when I'm focused on my browser or playing a games. Beyond changing the theme in KDE, there isn't anything particularly special I do with Linux that I couldn't do on Windows.
    I use Linux out of curiosity, especially since I own a Steam Deck. However, I still boot most of the time into Windows because games I want to play either don't run on Linux, perform better on Windows, are simpler to set up, or lack certain features on Linux.
    I really like Linux for just browsing, but Windows hasn't given me any significant reasons to dislike it; it functions well and personally doesn't trouble me-I can accomplish what I need without issues.
    Perhaps this may change one day, but I don't foresee Windows becoming so problematic and annoying for me that fixing issues in Linux would be a less annoying alternative.

    • @linuxnext
      @linuxnext  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes it is worse, in Australia we get the same experience as America does, the eu is just built differently with their laws

    • @maximvh1
      @maximvh1 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If it ends in N it's the EU version, KN is Korea. It was more significant when you had to install the OS from a CD in the 2000's, which is why those still exist as separate versions for anticompetitive laws to this day. Anyone can grab those versions these days though

    Yeah, thats the real question: What the hell is MS doing with windows?
    I'm not a power user of windows but I've used it all my life (95, XP, 7, 10). It was alright for my day to day business and gaming...but the recent developments (pushing to the account, ads, Copilot, spying etc pp) are driving me crazy.
    Again: WTH MS?

    And Nobara is just fedora, but without the hassle of installing a bunch of programs, repositories and ESPECIALLY nvidia drivers.
    So it's just ready to go as soon as you install it.

    Btw, love your Distro recommendations, I agree with every Distro on there, I just miss Debian, but honestly I don't even know 1 person, that I'd recommend Debian. :D

      They are also testing ads again in file explorer, adding ai explorer that will watch what you do in windows 11 and try to learn what you do while giving things back to you 🙃

    After over a decade of both Win & Linux use i finally dropped Windows completely, long time Mint user so that final cut was pretty painless. 🙂
    edit: most of your recommended new user distros, while enthusiastically mentioned, would probably scare people off; stick to Mint/Ubuntu & Zorin until they decide to move... don't throw ppl onto the bleeding edge because it's cool. lol
    Oh and gaming on Nobara was nice but gaming on Mint is more stable, for me at least.

    • @linuxnext

      I dont know if you listened to what i said but i said if your experienced use those bleeding edge distros, i didnt say it was cool, the same with arch i say if you are fully technically involved in software and hardware then you should try it, i then recommend linux mint, zorin for people that want to use linux without needing to learn much or to put it on a pc or laptop that is rather old.

    M$ is just conditioning the sheeple to accept ads. 4 months of teething pain and you could be a linux user free from all this nonsense. Upgrading from the terminal is just as easy as a GUI. It is just different. You soon get used to it as it more powerful. As your linux skills grow it becomes second nature. The only thing I miss from windows is the drivers and control software for musical instruments, RGB, etc. All we get is mac/pc versions.
